โ€œThe journey to Shark Tank and landing a deal with Marc Cuban was a long one. And the team at TLE contributed to my growth as a leader and helped me understand what it takes to turn your passion into real economic success.โ€

Ashley J.
Tones of Melanin

Our business had been growing steadily for over 15 years, but we wanted to try to find a way to accelerate the growth. Working with TLE gave us a different perspective on what goals to set and how to achieve them and helped us to a 60% increase in sales in our first year working with them. They have been instrumental in helping myself as the CEO & our entire organization to create a new culture, expect higher standards, and to help streamline our processes to put us in a position for long-term success.โ€

“Iโ€™d been struggling raising money. I was about to send out my investment materials when I learned of TLE. The difference between my approach and the approach TLE business consultant brought me was clearly the difference in the success of our fundraising efforts.โ€

“The business and legal guidance we got from TLE helped us accomplish some key objectives. We were able to change our mindsets as leaders, rework a complex partnership and evaluate the ROI of various business decisions. Their counsel has been invaluable in our journey.”

“TLE not only understood the challenges I was facing but offered invaluable feedback and ideas to help me navigate the most unprecedented of times and helped me identify my new โ€œplaygroundโ€. I genuinely credit TLE with being a very important resource during this period. Through the course of our sessions, I learned that TLE was uniquely qualified to help guide me.โ€

“The strategic decisions that TLE helped me make had a dramatic impact on our business. Their guidance helped us create a clear โ€œplaygroundโ€ where we could beat the competition and saved us over $1 million and 12 to 18 months by guiding us to the right technology path. Itโ€™s hard to imagine we would be where we are today without TLE.โ€

“I am an experienced leader in my field. But I had never run my own shop. Working with TLE in a complicated industry like healthcare gave me a perspective on strategy, dealmaking and pitfalls to avoid that has really helped our business.”

Steven E.
EMedical Sentry

“TLE has provided me with a sounding board and the means with which to take necessary actions in my role as Founder and CEO. The steps we discuss in our coaching sessions keep me from succumbing to the frustration common to a life of a lonely entrepreneurโ€”itโ€™s the space we each inhabit from time to time.โ€
