Business Consultant Needed to Help Launch Hospitality Consulting Company

Hi, I’m launching a new hospitality consulting company based in Texas (LLC already formed). The business focuses on: - Customer experience improvement - Menu development - Staff training - Operational + back-end auditing for bars, restaurants, hotels I come with 20 years of international hospitality experience (Australia, Japan, Israel) and I’m now converting my management background into a structured consulting business in the U.S. Because of my E-2 Investor Visa process, the business must be built with a strong and realistic foundation: - I must hire at least one U.S. employee (can be part-time; around ~$2,000/month budget total for labor — may split between 1–2 employees) - The business needs a clear structure, sustainable workflow, and early operational traction - I currently need to operate remotely, and once the visa is approved I will move to the U.S. and work onsite I’m looking for an experienced business consultant who has worked with service-based or consulting companies, preferably in hospitality or creative services, and ideally someone who understands U.S. business structure. What I Need Help With - Structuring the first months of operations - Understanding cash flow and financial planning - Designing service packages and pricing - Identifying viable target markets in the U.S. (especially Austin, Texas) - Preparing a plan for hiring my first employee (marketing coordinator/admin) - Creating a realistic roadmap for remote operations → onsite transition - Ensuring the business foundation is strong enough to support a visa-required investment (my initial budget is $80,000–$110,000) I will also receive a full branding package, website, and identity kit next week from a design agency — so brand direction is already in progress. About Me - 20 years in hospitality management & mixology - Worked in Israel, Japan, and Australia - Advanced Diploma in Hospitality Management - Strong background in operations, training, customer experience, and menu development - Currently in Australia and relocating to Israel next month during the visa process Who I’m Looking For - Someone who has built or guided consulting companies in the past - Experience with U.S. service-based businesses, and based in the US - Strategic thinker who can connect all the pieces (operations, marketing, hiring, financial flow) - Clear communicator, reliable, and comfortable working with founders who are building under time constraints - Ability to work with me step-by-step as the business foundation develops How We’ll Work - This is a project-based/hourly rate engagement with ongoing collaboration possible (depends on the scope and the packaged suggested). - I will share all additional details privately once I find the right consultant. If you have experience helping entrepreneurs launch service-based companies—especially when remote operations and regulatory timelines are involved—I'd love to hear from you. Please include: - A short overview of your relevant experience - Examples of similar businesses you’ve helped build - Your suggested approach for the first 30–60 days - Looking forward to working together. — Guy Miron Founder, Proof of Spirit LLC (Hospitality Consulting Company, Austin TX) Apply tot his job
