Who Am I?

I grew up in a small industrial town in northern Russia where grit wasn't just a virtue—it was a necessity for survival. That early environment instilled in me a relentless entrepreneurial drive and international business adaptability that would become the cornerstone of my professional journey.

My career began in Moscow, where I worked for Russia's largest oil company. Navigating the complex world of global business consulting taught me more than corporate strategies—it revealed the power of strategic problem-solving and cross-cultural communication. The high-stakes international business environment became my training ground for operational excellence.

Seeking broader horizons, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue an MBA, embracing the challenge of building a professional career in a new country. The transition wasn't just about business development—it was a profound personal transformation. I found balance and discipline through athletic training, learning that strategic planning and focused effort are as crucial in business consulting as they are in sports.

Manhattan became my next chapter—a city that mirrors my own spirit of business innovation and constant evolution. As a patron of NYC Ballet, I've developed an appreciation for precision and excellence that translates directly into my approach to business strategy and operational consulting.

Throughout my journey, I've built meaningful professional networks across cultures, driven by curiosity and a global business perspective. I've learned to find strategic solutions where others see complexity—a skill that now defines my approach to business optimization and cost reduction consulting.

Today, I bring the same tenacity, thoughtful approach, and global business insights to every organization I support—helping businesses transform challenges into opportunities.

Why Me?

As a trusted financial advisor, I leverage deep financial expertise, extensive business consulting experience, and a powerful professional network to provide strategic guidance that drives meaningful business impact. I offer clarity, precision, and strategic insights to help businesses make smarter financial decisions and achieve sustainable growth.

Tenacity & Precision in Business Consulting

When I take on a challenge, I see it through. With a career rooted in high-stakes industries like oil and finance, I approach every business problem with strategic precision, persistent analysis, and a laser focus on measurable results.

Unparalleled Vendor and Cost Reduction Expertise

No business succeeds alone. I provide access to a specialized network of 140 industry experts who focus exclusively on specific expense categories – from telecom cost optimization to shipping efficiency and software expense management. They possess deep vendor insights and can uncover hidden inefficiencies most businesses overlook.

Customer-Centric Business Consulting Approach

You are not just another client. I believe in high-touch, proactive business services that keep you fully informed every step of the way. From initial financial analysis to ongoing strategic support, I ensure you feel confident, clear, and in control of your financial strategy.

Deep Financial Expertise and Strategic Business Insights

I don't just understand how financial metrics work – I interpret what they mean for your specific business context. My approach identifies key growth opportunities others miss, driving value that extends far beyond simple cost savings.

What do I do?

I help SME businesses cut costs, reduce expenses, and boost profitability. Our cost reduction experts identify hidden fees, recover overcharges, and negotiate better rates with your vendors – ensuring you pay only for the services you actually use. Our process is risk-free, result-driven, and designed to deliver long-term savings, improve cash flow, and increase EBITDA. Free up your time and resources to focus on growth while we handle the heavy lifting of cost optimization.

Minimal Effort from Your Team

You focus on growth, not chasing expenses. We handle the entire process from review to vendor negotiations, so you can stay focused on revenue-generating activities.

Stronger EBITDA & Cash Flow

Every dollar of cost reduction flows straight to your EBITDA, boosting your profitability, strengthening cash flow, enhancing your business’s financial health.

Lower Borrowing Costs

A stronger EBITDA positions you as a safer borrower to banks, increasing access to financing, improving creditworthiness, and securing lower interest rates for your business.

Higher Business Valuation

A stronger financial foundation and higher EBITDA drive a higher valuation multiple, positioning you for a more profitable sale and better exit strategy if choose to sell.

Risk-Free Engagement

You only pay if we deliver savings. If no savings are found, you receive a complimentary business valuation — at no cost to you.

              Annual Telecom Savings

              Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?

              A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.

              Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?

              How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.

              Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?

              This pricing structure is often the least expensive and most transparent option.

              Merchant Services

              Schooley Mitchell looks out for your best interests by providing objective, independent advice to reduce your electronic payment processing spend and improve service. Our ongoing vigilance ensures your rates remain competitive no matter your transaction volume.

              Telecom Services

              Schooley Mitchell audits your landline, long distance, toll-free, fax, internet, and wireless services to identify cost savings, increase efficiency and recover billing errors.

              Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?

              In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.

              Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?

              Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.

              Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?

              Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.
