What business owners say about us
One call with Jani gave me a clear path forward. He quickly zeroed in on what was holding my business back and gave me practical steps I could act on right away. Very knowledgeable, honest, and professional. Highly recommend Modern Marks business consultants!

I had the pleasure of meeting Jani last night when he made a presentation at Langley Elks.
Very knowledgeable and lots of information ...
I had a consultation session with Jani, and it was a great experience. He provided clear, practical strategies tailored to my business and shared valuable markting insignts. I appreciated his professionalism, knowledge, and honest advice.
I've been struggling with how to grow my voice-over business and Jani was able to show me a path past several roadblocks. Just one call and I have 3 ways I can improve my business today as well as a few specific research topics to look further into. Definitely recommend.
I highly recommend Modern Marks Business Consultants. I had a great telephone consultation with Jani covering ideas for customer growth. Building and implementing technology into the business for stream lining things that I am not as proficient at.
Thank you Jani I am excited to get started and implement the things we discussed.

Signed up for the Essential package with Modern Marks specifically to tighten up my sales process, and it’s made a real difference. Instead of feeling pushy or scripted, I now have a natural, step-by-step way to talk to potential customers that actually builds trust. We worked through common objections together — like pricing pushback — so I’m no longer caught off guard on calls. My close rate has noticeably improved, and I feel far more confident going into every conversation.
Beyond sales, Jani also helped me clean up my operations — we built simple checklists for the everyday tasks that used to only live in my head, which made it so much easier to stay organized and consistent. One-on-one sessions are practical and specific to my business, not generic advice. Thank you, Jani, for giving me the tools and the confidence to close deals the right way and run things more smoothly behind the scenes. Highly recommend if you want to stop guessing on sales calls. Thanks for everything, Jani!
