Management Consulting  ·  Owner's Representation  ·  Northern Nevada

Complex work,
carried to completion.

ScottyKnows LLC advises and represents business owners through the work that determines outcomes — capital projects, operational build-outs, and the systems that run a company day after day. We combine seasoned judgment with modern operating technology, and we stay until it's done.

Services

Four practice areas.
One standard of delivery.

01

Owner's Representation
& Capital Projects

We stand in the owner's position on projects where the details carry the risk — site acquisition, entitlement, design, and construction. We direct architects, engineers, surveyors, and contractors; hold budgets and schedules against commitments; and protect ownership's interests from letter of intent through occupancy.

Typical engagements — commercial site acquisition · ground-up and tenant-improvement oversight · vendor selection and contract coordination · budget and schedule stewardship

02

Operations Consulting
& Business Systems

Growing companies lose revenue in the same places: follow-up that lapses, hiring that stalls, reporting that flatters. We diagnose how the work and the money actually move, then design and install the management systems that close those gaps — with a weekly cadence of evidence, not assurances.

Typical engagements — revenue and lead follow-up systems · staffing and hiring pipeline design · management reporting and operating cadence · back-office process rebuilds

03

Technology-Enabled
Operations

We build and operate AI-assisted infrastructure under disciplined human governance — automated candidate screening and scheduling, customer response and recovery, document and reporting workflows. Enterprise-grade capability, sized and priced for owner-operated companies, with a human accountable for every outcome.

Typical engagements — applicant follow-up and screening automation · missed-call and customer-response recovery · workflow and document automation · AI operations with human oversight

04

Market Presence
& Growth Operations

Presence work in service of the operation: positioning and messaging that reflect how the business actually competes, web properties built to convert rather than decorate, and recruiting brands that bring qualified candidates to the door. Measured in customers and hires.

Typical engagements — positioning and site development · recruiting and employer presence · local market and reputation operations

We measure everything against one standard:
did the work ship.

Approach

How engagements work

I

Assess

We start inside the operation — how money, work, and decisions actually move. Findings are written, specific, and owned.

II

Design

A plan with named owners, defined gates, and a definition of done for every deliverable. No plan survives without one.

III

Execute

We direct the work — vendors, builds, systems — and hold it to schedule and budget. Judgment stays human; the chasing is automated.

IV

Operate & report

Installed systems run daily and report weekly. Numbers that don't flatter anyone: what shipped, what stalled, what's next.

Engagement structures are matched to the work — project-based, milestone, or performance-linked. We prefer arrangements where our compensation depends on outcomes.
