Premium Operational Consulting · New England

We help established trades and small business owners build businesses that run without them and sell for what they're worth.

Most successful trades and small businesses are built around one person. That's a liability, whether you're trying to take a real vacation, bring on the next generation, or eventually sell. Buyers discount founder-dependent businesses. Successors inherit chaos.

Brokers know it. Your CPA knows it.

Now there's a firm that fixes it.

Operational infrastructure that runs without you.

Turnkey Operations works with established business owners in New England to remove founder dependency, document what makes the business work, and build systems that hold up over time. The result is a business that runs cleaner, scales easier, and is ready for whatever comes next, growth, succession, or an eventual sale.

01

Remove Founder Dependency

Identify where the business lives in your head and build systems that don't require you.

02

Document What Works

Capture the institutional knowledge, processes, and relationships that make your business valuable.

03

Build for What's Next

Create the operational infrastructure that supports growth, succession, or a future sale, whichever comes first.

Aaron has spent his career inside operations, from Merrill Lynch and nine years running his own consulting practice to operational work with Maine SBDC.

He started Turnkey Operations because he kept seeing the same problem: great businesses stuck because everything lived in the founder's head.

Turnkey Operations exists to fix that, before it costs you your weekends, your growth, or your closing table.
