Enterprise Rigour. Operational Realism.
Jonathan Bellot Consulting · Service Suite

Start with the Problem. The Right Path Follows.

Business owners rarely arrive knowing which service they need. They arrive with a problem. The three services below are organized around the problems they solve, not the other way around.

Where Are You Right Now?

The services map to distinct stages of your business journey. Understanding where you are today determines which one delivers the most leverage right now.

💰
Stage One · Immediate
Profitable but bleeding margin
Revenue is growing but cash isn't following. You're working harder for less. There's money trapped in your business that you haven't captured yet.
Now · 90 Days
Often overlaps
🤖
Stage Two · 1–2 Years Out
Stable operations, AI-uncertain
Your operations are stable but technology keeps changing and every vendor promises transformation. You need a clear adoption plan built around how your business actually works, not a vendor's pitch.
4–12 Weeks · Roadmap Delivered
Can run in parallel
🏆
Stage Three · 3–5 Years Out
Building toward a premium exit
You know you want to exit eventually. The question is whether your business will sell for what it's worth; that gap is built or closed in the next three years.
3-Year Advisory

Business Direction Review

$2M–$50M · All Stages · Start Here
Investment discussed on the discovery call
Full Details →
What It Is

A structured 2 to 3-week review that evaluates your business across three dimensions: operational health, technology adoption readiness, and exit readiness. It delivers a written report with prioritized findings and a direct recommendation on where to focus first.

It stands alone as valuable work. It does not obligate you to anything further. For owners who are uncertain where to begin, it is the clearest starting point.

Right for You If…
  • You have a sense something needs to change but aren't sure what to prioritize
  • You want an independent, structured view of your business before committing to further work
  • You're generating $2M to $50M and ready to invest 3 to 4 hours over 2 to 3 weeks
What You Walk Away With
  • Scored assessment across operational health, technology readiness, and exit readiness
  • Prioritized findings by impact
  • Clear recommendation on next steps
  • 90-minute readout session

90-Day Profit Recovery Sprint

Founder-led · Operational Consulting
Investment discussed on the discovery call
Full Details →
What It Is

A fixed-scope, 90-day sprint that finds the money you're leaving on the table—in pricing, operations, or cash flow—and helps you capture it fast. No long discovery phases. No year-long transformation projects. No disruption to your day-to-day.

The process moves from a deep financial and operational diagnostic in weeks one through three, through targeted execution in weeks four through nine, to a clean handoff with documented systems your team can maintain independently.

Right for You If…
  • You're the founder or owner with direct authority to act on recommendations
  • Margins are slipping despite growing revenue
  • You're the bottleneck. Every decision runs through you.
  • You want results in one quarter, not one year
  • You can commit 2–3 hours per week for 90 days
What You Walk Away With
Quantified profit leaks identified Top bottleneck removed Pricing strategy optimized Cash flow improvements captured SOPs your team can run independently

Exit Architecture

$2M–$50M · Exit Advisory · 3-Year Advisory
Investment discussed on the discovery call · Monthly retainer · Annual review
Full Details →
What It Is

A 3-year advisory relationship for Canadian business owners planning a premium exit. Structured around three phases: building operational independence, cleaning the financial story, and positioning the business to attract serious buyers at a premium multiple.

You run the business. I lead the exit strategy, coordinate your professional advisors, and hold you accountable to the milestones that build real exit value.

Right for You If…
  • You're planning to exit in the next 3–5 years
  • You suspect your business isn't yet sellable at the price you need
  • You want to start preparing now, not 6 months before a sale
  • You want a strategic lead to coordinate your advisory team
What You Walk Away With
Operationally independent business 3 years of clean, normalized financials Documented systems & SOPs Reduced owner dependency CIM-ready documentation Buyer narrative developed M&A advisor coordination

Start With the Situation, Not the Service Name

The right starting point is usually the problem you're living with right now. Here is how the most common situations map to the right starting point.

Situation One
"My revenue is up but I'm not seeing it in the bank."
This is a margin and operational efficiency problem. The Sprint is designed for exactly this: finding and recovering the profit that's already in your business but not yet captured.
Start with the Sprint →
Situation Two
"I know I need to do something with AI. I just don't know what."
This is a clarity and strategy problem. The AI Roadmap gives you a prioritized plan built around your specific operations, not a vendor's pitch or a generic framework.
Start with the AI Roadmap →
Situation Three
"I want to retire in a few years but I'm not sure my business will sell."
This is a valuation and exit readiness problem. Exit Architecture builds the operational, financial, and strategic foundation for a premium exit, over three years, not three months.

🧭
Your Situation Doesn't Fit Neatly Into a Box?
Some of the most useful conversations don't start with a defined scope. If your challenge is complex, spans multiple areas, or is simply hard to categorize, let's talk first. I'll tell you whether I can help, and how.

Each Service Builds on the Last

A business that's operationally efficient is a better candidate for AI adoption. A business that's operationally independent and AI-forward is dramatically more valuable at exit. The three services are designed as a progression; each builds on the operational and strategic foundation of the last.

Not every owner engages with all three. The right starting point is wherever your business needs the most leverage today. The discovery call is where we figure that out together.

Still Not Sure Where to Start?

That's exactly what the discovery call is for. 30 minutes, no pitch, no obligation: a direct conversation about where your business is and which service, if any, makes sense.
