Does any of this sound familiar?

Whether you're a founder, a solopreneur, or running an agency or established business, the same few challenges tend to keep owners up at night.

i.

Customers

You know there's more growth out there, but not where to find it.

You've tried a few channels and tactics. Some worked, most didn't, and you're not sure what to focus on.

ii.

Revenue

You're working hard, but the numbers aren't moving the way they should.

You have ideas for growing revenue, but no clear way to decide which ones are worth your time and money.

iii.

People

Managing your team is taking more out of you than you'd like.

Hiring, delegating, difficult conversations — people issues keep pulling you away from other important work.

And when you're the one everyone looks to for answers, you can sometimes doubt yourself and feel all alone.

My approach

Good decisions need a clear head and a clear plan.

Most business advice only covers the plan. But what goes on in your head — the inner game — shapes every decision you make. I work on both.

The inner game

How you think, decide and lead.

We work through the doubts, blind spots and pressure that cloud judgement — so you can step back, see the situation clearly and decide with confidence.

The outer game

Strategy and tactics that fit your business.

Practical guidance on winning customers, growing revenue and leading your people — shaped to your business and stage of growth, not a generic playbook.

Both matter. When you focus on the wrong area, you may not achieve the results you seek.

Your first session

One focused hour on what matters most right now.

  • 60 minutes, 1:1, online. Bring the challenge or decision that's weighing on you most.
  • Guidance personalized to you. Advice shaped to your business, your stage of growth and your goals.
  • An experienced outside perspective. From someone who has built and run businesses - not a generic AI response that doesn't understand you as a human being.
  • A clear way to think about it. Mental models for navigating your situation, now and next time.
  • A concrete action plan. Specific next steps you can start on immediately.
  • Recording and notes. So you can focus on the conversation, not on taking notes.
  • A 15-minute check-in one week later. To review progress, work through what's come up, and adjust the plan.

How it works

Start with one session. Keep going if it helps.

  1. 01

    Free 20-minute intro call

    Tell me where you are and what you're working through. We'll see if I'm the right person to help — no pressure either way.

  2. 02

    Your first session

    60 focused minutes on your most important challenge. You leave with clarity and a concrete action plan.

  3. 03

    One-week check-in

    A 15-minute follow-up to review what you've done, work through what's come up, and adjust the plan.

  4. 04

    More sessions (optional)

    If the first session helped, you can continue with a series of sessions - weekly, every two weeks or monthly, depending on your situation.

One session gets you unstuck. More help you keep growing.

Many challenges don't resolve in a single conversation. Plans meet reality, new questions come up, and the next decision builds on the last one. Regular sessions give you a steady rhythm to test what's working, adjust quickly, and stay accountable — with someone who already knows your business, so we never start from zero.

Some people find one session is all they need. Others prefer to keep going. Either is fine.

What people say

From founders and leaders I've worked with.

I've relied on Sid as a trusted thinking partner on a number of important decisions, from launching new services and investing in technology to deciding where my own time and attention would have the greatest impact. He does not simply give advice; he asks the right questions, challenges assumptions, and helps bring clarity to complex situations.
Edgar Salmeron · Founder & CEO, Neat Interactive
“Sid is a dedicated advisor and an exceptional listener. Sid coached me through discovering customer needs, building a strong offer, and pitching to different types of stakeholders.”
Mai Nguyen
Co-Founder & COO, The Circle Group
“Sid excelled in coaching people to perform outside of their comfort zone. As we expanded from less than 10 people to over 130, Sid initiated many of the processes and systems that allowed us to operate on a larger scale.”
Bob Gallagher
Founder & CEO, Appsynth
“Sid is strong in strategic thinking and able to evaluate complex situations to identify the key issues that block or enable progress.”

About me

I'm Sid. I've been in your shoes before and I'm ready to listen.

I've spent more than 20 years building and running businesses in the US and Asia. For ten of those years, I was part of the leadership team at Appsynth, a mobile app agency, helping grow it from a small founding team to more than 130 people, and later serving as Managing Director. In 2025, the company was acquired by Deloitte.

I've worked with owners and executives of enterprises, small businesses, and startups in industries including digital agencies, real estate, hospitality and healthcare. Most of the work has been focused on enabling business growth through the right combination of strategy, good decision making, and developing people to drive the business forward.

Along the way, I've made plenty of hard calls - some good, some not-as-good, but all valuable learning experiences. That's the experience I bring to every session: practical, honest, and focused on what will actually move your business forward.

Is this right for you?

A good fit if you:

  • Run a business, or are building one, and carry most of the big decisions yourself
  • Want practical guidance and support to achieve your goals
  • Are ready to be honest about where things stand, and to act on what we agree

Probably not a fit if you:

  • Want someone to run the business for you
  • Are looking for guaranteed results or quick shortcuts
  • Aren't ready to make changes yet

Common questions

What's the difference between the intro call and the first session?

The intro call is a free, 20-minute conversation to understand your situation and check that we're a good fit. The first session is where we do the work: 60 minutes focused on your challenge, ending with a concrete action plan.

Do I have to commit to more than one session?

No. Every client starts with a single session. If you'd like to keep going afterwards, we'll talk about it after the first session. There's no obligation.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

Mostly founders, solopreneurs, agency owners and owners of small and growing businesses. If you're not sure your situation fits, book an intro call and we'll find out.

How should I prepare?

No preparation is needed. If it helps, jot down the one or two issues that are weighing on you most before we meet.

Is it confidential?

Yes. What we discuss stays between us.

Your next big decision doesn't have to be a solo one.
