About Mike Cousineau

I’ve built a reputation for positioning businesses for growth by leveraging business acumen and driving the fundamentals; hiring and developing the right people and analyzing the financials of a business to truly understand what the numbers are saving.The expertise I offer is based on a long history of formulating business and marketing strategies that increase top and bottom-line performance while improving customer outcomes. My experience is both broad and in-depth, as I’ve held executive leadership roles overseeing multi-business unit operations, co-leading acquisition activities and managing major accounts. I co-lead an advertising agency and grew it to 300 employees and over $50M in net revenues. I understand what it takes to run a business and make it profitable. Through my business advisory services, I pride myself in leading with integrity, candor and transparency. Nothing in my career has led to more success than adhering to those core fundamentals. It’s how you earn and retain opportunities and how a business prospers. Highly analytical and data-driven, I’m able to bring people together to focus on deliverables, using data and the insights it provides to drive accountability and keep people engaged and on track. Today my focus is on advising and investing in businesses. My main interest is to make a significant impact on a company’s performance.
