Testimonials

Founder + CVO
Craig Jackson

“For years I had worked to scale my family-owned aerospace machining company but kept getting hung up in the day-to-day operations. I knew I needed to bring in someone that complimented my abilities and would allow me to step out of several roles I was doing. Meg helped me understand my evolving role as Founder to best support the company's growth.

 

We transitioned my focus from managing day-to-day activities to maintaining the high-level strategy and vision for my business and hired a leadership team. Meg established an org chart, job descriptions, health benefits, employee training and standardized work instructions.

 

Along with playing a key role in us achieving our AS9100 quality certification, she helped implement several other new digital technologies successfully. Most impressively, Meg took charge of selecting and implementing our first ERP system.

 

As a result of our work together, we were able to maintain profitability while increasing sales by 75% in just 12 months.

 

Meg’s commitment to our success and transparent communication were apparent in every milestone we accomplished together, and I highly recommend working with Meg if you are a Founder who is serious about taking your company to the next level!”

Founder + CEO, Investor
Wes Murry

“Meg began working with me at Castle & Key Distillery and afterwards as both a freelance consultant and operating partner for a lower middle market private equity transaction.

 

Our work together spanned multiple sets of problems and projects. Everything from executing a $4.0M capital expansion, to implementing a preventative maintenance program, to re-organizing the org chart of our machining company. 

 

She raised my bar of what planning looks like and learned to hold me accountable to giving what is needed to be successful. That's important, because individuals like me who have a lot going on aren't always as available as we know we need to be.

 

The results that she drove at both Castle & Key and Machine Time speak for themselves. Both operational performance and team collaboration.

 

Meg is one of the most competent individuals I have had the pleasure to work with. Whatever project or problem she is working on, she dedicates her full energy and effort. She doesn't know how to dedicate less. It's been an honor to work with her and I hope to work with her again soon."

General Manager
Ramon Romero

"I engaged with Meg during the critical phase of hiring Machine Time's first General Manager. She not only spearheaded the recruitment process but also played a key role in onboarding and equipping me with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the company's culture and operations.

 

Meg was instrumental in tackling the organizational vacuum at Machine Time. We lacked essential departments like Human Resources, Finance, Environmental Health and Safety, and Operations Management. Her initiative was pivotal in organizing the chaos.

 

Meg's organizational prowess laid a robust groundwork for our leadership and team development. The structured training and routine management processes she implemented have become a staple in our daily operations, fostering a culture of continuous creation and improvement.

 

Initially, I was skeptical about the practicality of consulting services, which often seemed entrenched in theory rather than actionable strategies. However, Meg's hands-on approach and tangible frameworks dispelled these doubts, showcasing the real-world effectiveness of her expertise."
