Okay so, you're probably used to seeing city pages that feel kinda generic, full of buzzwords and promises that sound too good to be true. I'm not gonna do that. I'm a solo operator, based in Florida, and when you work with me, you're working with *me*. No big teams, no endless meetings, just a focused effort to help you understand your data better and make smarter decisions for your Tallahassee business.
I’ve spent years digging through data for all sorts of companies. I know the feeling of having tons of information but no clear path forward. My goal here is to cut through the noise, figure out what you actually need, and build something practical that helps you see what's really going on in your business, right here in Tallahassee.
## What I actually do for Tallahassee clients
Mostly, I help businesses get their data organized and then build out dashboards or reports that actually mean something. Think about it this way: instead of spending hours manually pulling numbers for a monthly sales report, I can set up an automated system that gives you that report at the click of a button, or even sends it to your inbox every Monday. Or perhaps you've got customer data scattered across three different systems, and you want to see a unified view of who your best customers really are. I can build that model for you.
Another common project in Tallahassee is setting up a pilot for a specific problem. Maybe you want to predict which customers are likely to churn, or optimize your inventory levels based on past sales patterns. I can work with your existing data, build a simple predictive model, and show you how it performs. It’s about getting a quick win and demonstrating the value, without committing to a huge, long-term overhaul right off the bat.
## How a Tallahassee engagement usually goes
1. **Weeks 1-2: Discovery & Scoping.** This is where I learn about your business, your goals, and what data you actually have. We'll talk through your pain points, what you're hoping to achieve, and I'll get a good look under the hood. I'll ask a lot of questions. By the end of this phase, I'll have a clear, fixed-fee proposal for what I can build for you. 2. **Weeks 3-6 (or longer, depending on scope): Data Prep & Model Building.** This is the messy part, where I clean, organize, and integrate your data. It's often the most time-consuming step, but it's crucial. Once the data's in good shape, I'll start building the dashboards, reports, or models we agreed on. I'll check in regularly to show you progress and get your feedback. 3. **Weeks 7-8: Review & Refinement.** We'll review the first version of the output together. You'll tell me what works, what doesn't, and what needs tweaking. I’ll make revisions based on your feedback until you’re happy with the results. This is an iterative process, so don't feel like you need to get it perfect on the first try. 4. **Ongoing (Optional): Support & Training.** Once everything’s built and working, I'll show you how to use it. I can also provide ongoing support or additional training for your team if needed. My goal is for you to be self-sufficient, but I'm always here if you run into a snag or want to expand on what we've built.
## What it costs, roughly
I mostly work on a fixed-fee basis. That means once we agree on the scope of work, you'll know exactly what you're paying, no surprises. For smaller, focused projects — maybe setting up a single dashboard or automating a specific report — you're probably looking at a few thousand dollars. More complex engagements, involving data integration from multiple sources or building out several predictive models, can run into the mid to high four figures, sometimes low five figures. It really depends on the complexity and the time commitment. I don't charge by the hour, because I think that just leads to folks watching the clock. I focus on delivering the agreed-upon outcome.
## Who I'm usually NOT a fit for
I'm not usually the right fit for massive, multi-departmental data warehouse projects that require a whole team of specialists and a year-long timeline. If you're a Fortune 500 company looking for a global data strategy, I'm probably not your guy. I also don't do ongoing managed IT services or regular data entry. My sweet spot is helping small to medium-sized businesses in Tallahassee that need a specific data problem solved, or want to get a solid foundation for their business intelligence without the overhead of a large consulting firm.

FAQs — Tallahassee
How do I know if data analytics or BI is worth it for my Tallahassee business?
If you're making important business decisions based on gut feelings instead of concrete numbers, or if you spend too much time manually pulling reports, it's probably worth exploring. I can help you identify specific areas where data can provide real value.
Do you only work with companies in Tallahassee?
While I'm based in Florida and often work with businesses in Tallahassee, I do serve clients remotely across the state and beyond. Location isn't a barrier if we're a good fit.
What's the typical timeline for a data analytics project?
Most projects, from initial discovery to a working solution, usually take between 6 to 12 weeks. Simpler requests can be quicker, while more complex integrations might take a bit longer, but I always aim for clear timelines.
What kind of data do you usually work with?
I work with a wide range of data, including sales figures, customer relationship management (CRM) data, marketing metrics, financial data, and operational data from various systems. If you collect it, chances are I can help you make sense of it.
Will I need to provide special software or tools?
Not necessarily. I can often work with your existing tools, whether that's spreadsheets, a CRM, or a specific database. If new tools are needed, I'll recommend cost-effective options that fit your business.
