Described in a nutshell, Next Step Solutions is a team of business consultants specializing in providing operational, financial, and management guidance to entrepreneurs and small- to medium-sized businesses.

That's quite a mouthful for one nut. To expand on this, let's consider the typical entrepreneur. He or she is probably highly creative, energetic, and possessed of a great idea and the drive to get out there and sell it. Looked at another way, they are creative, right-brained types of personalities.

Successful businesses usually require just that kind of individual to notice an opportunity and get it off the ground. To keep it off the ground and flying for the long haul usually requires the complementary skills of the left-brained individual. These are the detail-oriented, numbers-skilled, and well organized people who form the foundation of successful firms. They may not be as obvious to those outside the company, but they are critical to its success.

That's where we fit into the picture. Our extensive and varied business experience allows us to provide the balance of structured business skill to the creative drive of a successful small business person.

Founded in 2001, Next Step Solutions is located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, with offices near Seattle, WA.

Our primary practice area is Western Washington. Face-to-face time with our clients is very important, but there is also much good work we can do for them via telephone and computer. With full use of the technical tools of the trade, and some business travel, we also serve clients in a broader area, including Eastern Washington, Oregon, and beyond.
