## About

I help business owners fix the systems that take up your time but generate no revenue. I'm the founder of The Collaborative, and founder and past president of the Red River Manufacturers and Engineers Association. I've built dealer networks across North Dakota, and caught a manufacturer's expired ISO certificate before an audit did. I work with teams to cut the work that doesn't sell and build the systems that do.

## What I help with

- Business Consulting

## Sessions I offer

- [Sales & BD advisory](https://www.everyexpert.com/ricklemke/book/sales-bd-advisory) — 1 hour, $150.00
  Bring the sales problem you're stuck on — territory, pipeline, pricing, or a team that's not closing. In an hour you'll know what's really going on, what's blocking the sale, and your next move.
- [SOP & ISO 9001 readiness review](https://www.everyexpert.com/ricklemke/book/sop-iso-9001-readiness-review) — 1 hour, $150.00
  Bring your SOPs, work instructions, and document control — whatever state they're in. In an hour you'll know what's missing for audit readiness, what it's costing you, and what it takes to close the gaps. We get you ready for certification; the certificate itself comes from an accredited registrar. We do not sell the audit; we sell everything that gets you through it.
- [One problem, one call](https://www.everyexpert.com/ricklemke/book/one-problem-one-call) — 30 min, $75.00
  One problem, one straight answer on what's really going on and what it would take to fix.
- [Discovery call](https://www.everyexpert.com/ricklemke/book/discovery-call) — 1 hour, $150.00
  Bring the process that's taking up your time but generating no revenue. In an hour you'll leave knowing exactly what's wrong with it, what it's costing you, and what the fix looks like. If we work together on anything over $1,000, the $150 comes back as a credit toward the work.
- [Grow your territory](https://www.everyexpert.com/ricklemke/book/grow-your-territory) — 1 hour, $150.00
  Bring the territory you want to grow — or the one that's stalled. In an hour you'll know where the growth is, what's in the way, and what to do about it.
