Our Why

Our Services

We work side-by-side with clients to clarify their vision, simplify their workload, and build a business that works for them—not the other way around.

Business Process Optimization

Evaluate existing workflows and operations to identify inefficiencies, redundancies, and bottlenecks. Then, design streamlined, scalable systems that save time, reduce errors, and maximize productivity. Whether it’s automating repetitive tasks or restructuring communication flows, the goal is to help you run leaner and smarter.

Startup Launch Support

Launching a business is overwhelming—we help simplify the chaos. From choosing the right business structure and writing a business plan to setting up tools, branding, and your first offers, we provide step-by-step guidance to get your business off the ground with clarity and confidence. We also partner with expert Business Attorneys in San Diego to help you ensure success from the foundation on.

Operations & Workflow Design

Clear systems = calm business. We help you design and document repeatable workflows, build SOPs, and organize tools so your business runs consistently—whether you’re working solo or scaling up with a team. The result? Less stress, more structure, and better delegation.

Monthly Business Check-in Packages

That’s where our Monthly Business Check-Ins come in. These packages are designed to give small business owners clarity, accountability, and guidance—without the overwhelm. Each month, we review your numbers, processes, and goals, helping you spot opportunities, fix leaks, and stay focused on growth.

Momentum (Standard): Deeper reviews with accountability check-ins, bottleneck analysis, and extra support.

Testimonials

What our clients are saying about us

Stuart L.

I’ve known Ellie Brenner for over ten years and have been consistently impressed by her. Ellie combines focus, cheerfulness, and personability, leading to success in every endeavor she undertakes. As a teenage athlete at my fencing club, she was outstanding, always displaying dignity and excellent sportsmanship. She brought honor to our club and built positive relationships with teammates and opponents alike.

After graduating from university, Ellie returned to San Diego and reached out about LionHeart, my small family-owned business with approximately $300,000 in annual revenue and 300 dedicated clients. I hired her immediately. Knowing I aimed to position the company for sale, I tasked Ellie with helping us reach that goal. She streamlined our office procedures, collaborated with the family to create a comprehensive operations manual for future owners, and consistently managed our social media to share positive updates about our studio.

I wholeheartedly recommend Ellie Brenner to any small or medium-sized company.

Lee T.

Ellie Brenner of Brenner Consulting helped our small business get streamlined and into compliance in several areas. Like most small businesses, we were overwhelmed doing all of the administrative work while also providing all of the services that our business offers. Here are just a few of the things that Brenner Consulting helped us develop:

An invoicing system to collect fees for services completed
An operations manual
An employee handbook
Social media and marketing campaigns
An awareness of labor laws that exist, and are also proposed

Ellie is easy to chat with and she has the ability to clearly define what is needed to get your business on track. Definitely a 5-star recommendation!
