About

Built by operators, not consultants.

We've been the people responsible for outcomes — making payroll, launching products, managing teams, and scaling operations under real constraints. Not as advisors, but as operators.

Across software, local services, marketplaces, and agriculture, we've built, run, and grown real businesses. That experience shows up in how we work: plainspoken, practical, and accountable for execution rather than reports.

Seed + Spark exists because the best advice comes from people who have lived with the consequences of their own decisions. We don't hand over recommendations and leave. We work alongside owner-operators on the moves that matter most.

Principles
Operators, not personas

We sit with the people running the business. Decisions made in the room hold longer than decisions made in a deck.

Constraints, not tactics

The right move is usually obvious once the real constraint is named. We're paid to name it.

Sequence over speed

The order of moves matters more than the number of moves. We sequence for compounding.

Systems over heroics

If growth depends on a single person's energy, it isn't growth. It's a treadmill.

Plain language

If a recommendation can't be explained in one sentence, it isn't a recommendation yet.

Western roots

Grand Valley, Colorado. We work locally, regionally, and remotely with owner-operated businesses.
