FOUNDER
WENDY VAN RYN
Wendy is a strategist and two-time entrepreneur whose work has helped businesses achieve significant growth across a wide range of industries and stages.
Across startups, established companies, international brands, and mission-driven organizations, she’s worked with both product- and service-based businesses online and in physical locations.
Her strategies have helped clients more than triple quarterly sales from $1.7M to $5.6M in 90 days, reach two-year revenue goals in six months, and increase net profit by 30% while working fewer hours.
Wendy’s journey began in 2005, when she welcomed her first child the same weekend she launched a brand and marketing agency. Over the years, her work evolved from tactical execution into strategic advising.
HER SUPERPOWER:
Wendy’s ability to spot what doesn’t add up to the bigger picture allows her to identify the blind spot getting in the way of growth. She asks the questions that get beneath the symptoms to reveal what’s actually creating friction, turning confusion into clarity and a fast path forward.
A mom to two sons and stepmom to twins, she loves family game nights around the kitchen table.
