What I do

Two sides of your business. One partner who gets both.

Most owners juggle a separate consultant, a marketing agency, and a trade-show vendor — none of whom really know the business. I bridge the gap: the same person who helps you run smarter can also help you look sharp in the market.

Who I work with: small and mid-sized businesses — and the nonprofits and mission-driven organizations that need the same practical help.

About JLP Services

One person who understands the work and the story.

JLP Services exists because most businesses are forced to split two related problems between strangers: a consultant who doesn't touch the marketing, and an agency that doesn't understand the operation. I do both — so the way your business runs and the way it presents itself actually line up.

My background isn't one lane. I lead a distributed sales team and direct equipment sales worldwide — and along the way I've worked in retail and served on nonprofit boards and in governance roles, including a scholarship-granting organization. I've seen organizations from the operator's seat, the sales floor, the manager's chair, and the boardroom.

The systems thinking, team leadership, and plain-spoken marketing that earn results across those settings translate to just about any business or mission built on making, moving, or serving real people. Whatever the job, you work directly with me, start to finish.

— Justin Petterson, Founder, JLP Services

Questions

Good questions, straight answers.

How do we get started?
Every project begins with a free, no-obligation conversation. We talk through what you're trying to accomplish, I scope the work, and you get a clear quote before anything begins — no surprises.
What does it cost?
Business projects are quoted to scope; consulting starts at $125/hr and training from $750. Career services are simple fixed-price packages. The pricing section above has the details.
Do you work on-site or remotely?
Both. I'm based in central Minnesota and work on-site with regional clients, and remotely with clients anywhere.
Can I hire you for just operations, or just creative?
Absolutely. Many clients start with one — a process fix or a logo — and the two sides are there together when it helps. You're never locked into a bundle.
Do you work with nonprofits?
Yes — businesses and mission-driven organizations both. I've served on nonprofit boards and understand how they run, which matters when the budget and the mission both count.
How are creative projects priced?
Project-based, with the starting points listed above and a firm quote once we've scoped it. Any printing or production — banners, displays, signage — is billed separately at cost, so you never pay a markup on materials.
Let's talk

Have a problem worth solving?

Tell me what you're working on — an operations headache, a brand that needs work, a show you're prepping for. The first conversation is free, and you'll leave it with at least one useful idea.
