Welcome to Joe Strategy where we’re all about giving and sharing strategic planning advice to small businesses and professional advisory firms.

As your first order of business on Joe Strategy, we recommend you read our new white paper entitled, “The Cloud, the Crowd & the Demise of Professional Services as We Know It.” The very foundation and assumptions associated with the delivery of professional services is undergoing fundamental change that will drastically alter the manner in which providers are perceived and valued. We wrote this white paper to help professional services firms adjust their business models before it’s too late.

We will post new content every Friday morning and sometimes in between Fridays, so we hope you’ll subscribe to Joe Strategy.

We pledge to share thinking that’s

1. Pertinent
2. Aligned with the real needs and challenges of today’s small businesses and professional services firms
3. Pragmatic

Please join the conversation!  We look forward to your comments.
