Joel’s Consulting Services

No one can be good at everything; here are Joel’s areas of expertise:
- Landscape design: access, infrastructure, fences, edges, riparian buffers.
- Water systems: access, distribution, capturing, utilization.
- Corrals and livestock handling infrastructure: design, placement, infrastructure.
- Brainstorming possibilities and opportunities: enterprises, margins, profit potential.
- Fertility enhancement: techniques, resources, carbon development, composting.
- Identifying weak links: breakthroughs and break withs; catalysis and inhibitors

- Succession planning: articulating expectations, agreeing on vision, roadmap to the future.
- Marketing: what, where, when, how, and to whom.
- Financials: margins, enterprise comparisons, time and motion, project value.
