We're absolute nerds when it comes to every element of running a business.
We haven't just hired—we've built, improved, and perfected entire hiring systems.
We haven't just set up business management platforms—we've researched & compared every option... And then gone in and customized every module and setting available.
We haven't just run companies—we've grown them, whipped them into shape, and turned them into money making machines where people love to work.
We've taken several business management philosophies, grabbed the best parts, and then made them our own.
We got TOO PASSIONATE about the theory of operating companies, so we decided to do it full time.
Our Team
"I can do that."
Celene Hoag
CEO
Known for being able to jump into pretty much anything and make it better, Celene's special sauce is her ability to keep the "big picture" front of mind, while digging into the nitty gritty details of any project.
With a background in Commercial Real Estate Appraisal, Finance & Economics, plus 5 years running a digital marketing agency while consulting with other owners, she's kinda seen it all!
"I get sh*t done."
Jacqui Murtough
OPERATIONS SPECIALIST
To say that Jacqui can make anything happen is probably not overstating her ability to solve pretty much any problem.
With a background that spans the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC, the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, BC Recreation and Parks Association and even Chorus Entertainment, Jacqui has pretty much made it her career's mission to keep big bosses on target, and tell them what they need to hear—even when they won't like what she has to say. (She'll tell it to you straight.)
She can figure out any tech and tackle any obstacle, all while keeping everyone on track, on time, and making her team smile.
Also on the board of directors for the Fraser Valley Wind Ensemble, Jacqui loves music, animals, and especially her niece.
"I'm always ready to go the extra mile."
Halynn Bains
OPERATIONS SPECIALIST
"I make you look good."

What Our Clients Say
"It's almost impossible to recommend Celene as highly as she deserves. She is a powerhouse that can deliver unmatched impact for any team. Low on capacity? Celene's got a solution. Muddled process? Celene will clear it up. Losing your mind trying to keep up with operations work? Celene will be your absolute saving grace.
At Sculpt, I had grand ideas for our processes and training but no time whatsoever to get it all done. She came in and with almost zero direction — just a lot of disjointed documents and recordings — assembled the best-documented process and training resources we've ever had. On top of that, she helped coach us through the process and gave us key advice on what we needed or didn't need. When she saw we were struggling in another area she could help with, she didn't hesitate to hop in there and continue to make our lives easier and business better.
Celene is an endless vault of helpful advice and insight matched only by her ability to build up incredible things from almost nothing. You'll undoubtedly leave your working relationship with her better off."
Katelin Tiernan, Managing Director, Sculpt
