Doug DePhillips, President Chroma Building Corporation.
“I am happy to reccomend John as a business consultant. We started working with John to better understand how our business operates. We transitioned from a typical contracting business model to a multi-faceted building services provider. With John’s input we were able to better understand the earnings model of a service provider’s business.
John is easy to work with and very patient. He brings to the table a resource that quite frankly, more start-ups should invest in if they want to gain for the long run.”

Matt Baier, CEO Baier Organizing
“John is an outstanding consultant. He’s a great listener and brings a wealth of experience and expertise to his solutions. He is quick to praise the progress I have made with my business, but doesn’t hold back on telling me the tough things I need to hear. That’s really important and moreover he doesn’t leave me out in the cold as to how to take on these tough challenges. He provides step by step advise. My business has grown by 65% since working with John. I would recommend him without hesitation.”

Matthew Perry, Managing Director State Street Bank
“After 29 years at JPMorgan and prior to State Street, a friend and I started a small business. We asked John Harmon for help and he was invaluable to us both as a source of great information, but more importantly as a sounding board for various paths we were thinking of following. He has the savvy, the style and the experience to ask the right questions, come up with the appropriate analysis, and provide the wise guidance for a small business to grow. John is best described as a consultant with a thoughtful, non-formulaic approach to his clients. We felt very fortunate to have John as both a guide and as a friend. John sincerely wanted to see us succeed and his questions and answers were always offered in a spirit of support. Our company is more focused and on a better strategic path because we worked with John.”

In a very brief time John distinguished himself as a very insightful counselor, that built long term relationships with his clients , and gained his client’s confidence in a very short time. John is one of our best counselors. John has been given additional responsibilities as a Counselor Specialist, working with our clients that are already in business. Part of that responsibility is to assess these client’s businesses in a very detailed way. John has excelled in doing this very demanding task and now does all of our client’s businesses assessments. John is also our Education Chair, and personally oversees and leads our newest and most important educational program called Quick Growth, designed for clients who have been in business for several years and have revenues in excess of $1 million.
