Business Consulting, Coaching & Fractional COO for Richmond
Richmond businesses operate at the intersection of local service, international commerce and rapid growth. Whether you run a food business near the airport, a logistics company moving goods through the region, a manufacturer, retailer or professional firm, growth can expose gaps in planning, delegation, cash-flow visibility and day-to-day accountability.

Based in Langley, we serve Richmond in person across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, as well as online. You get clear advice, experienced coaching and hands-on leadership support suited to the realities of running a small or mid-sized business.

Questions from Richmond owners
What kinds of Richmond businesses do you support?
We support small and mid-sized Richmond businesses across industries including logistics, manufacturing, food, retail, hospitality, professional services and other owner-led operations. The work is tailored to your goals, constraints and current stage of growth.
Can you help if my Richmond business is growing faster than our systems?
Yes. We can identify bottlenecks, clarify responsibilities, improve meeting and reporting rhythms, document core processes and establish practical priorities so your team can handle more work with greater consistency.
Do you serve Richmond remotely or in person?
Both. Modern Marks is based in Langley and serves Richmond as part of its Metro Vancouver service area. We can meet in person when useful and work online when that is more efficient for your owners and team.
When should I consider a fractional COO for my Richmond company?
A fractional COO may help when the owner is managing too many operational details, growth is creating coordination problems, or managers need stronger structure and accountability. It provides focused leadership without adding a full-time executive role.
How does business coaching differ from consulting?
Consulting focuses on diagnosing issues and recommending or implementing solutions. Coaching focuses more on you as the owner or leader—your decisions, communication, delegation and accountability—so you can lead the business with greater confidence.

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!
