About Me

I’m Kim Dawson,

and I believe in being financially independent and in control of our own lives –

Entrepreneurship can provide both.

I’ve been an entrepreneur my whole life, with the exception of a few corporate accounting stints, which I knew were not for me. I wanted to choose my hours, enjoy what I did, and make money on my terms. Perhaps you can relate…

Your life, on your terms.
I want to help you!
Kim Dawson

If you made it here, I’m guessing you want that, too – to be comfortable financially on your terms, have time flexibility, and a life you enjoy every day, because you can afford to do the things that are important to you. But you need help getting there.

My goal is to show you how those can be realistic, achievable goals. I’ve been a business owner for over 20 years, with experience as a brick-and-mortar and an online entrepreneur. In high school and college, I started several business ventures, and I’ve built a variety of businesses, from a local health and fitness studio to co-founding a successful software startup. As a business owner I have hired and managed staff, sold services and products, and served customers both locally and internationally.

How I Can Help

Using my entrepreneurial experience along with a background in accounting, I help small businesses optimize their pricing and procedures while navigating niche markets and building a team, without cutting into their profitability. 

Let's Get Started
My clients get results.

After working with me, I’ve had clients double – and sometimes triple – their revenue, all while hiring new team members, doing more of what they enjoy, and gaining their free time back. But they gained more than revenue. 

They had my support, resources, and confidence in their business growth.

Author. Podcast Host. Adventurer.

I’m the author of an Amazon best-selling book called Passion to Profits: Your Guide To Building a Successful Business You Love, and I am the host and producer of the long-running Sassy Strategist podcast where I deliver practical strategies to help you manage and grow your business on your own terms.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking in the woods, going for a run, trying out a new recipe, writing in my journal, or reading about my latest topic of interest while enjoying a cup of coffee and listening to music.

Kim was instrumental in helping me to streamline processes, improve back end systems, and think differently about revenue. She is incredibly responsive to questions, and is a great thought partner when it comes to brainstorming different ways to approach a situation. Whether you are just starting out with a new business, or have an existing business you are looking to scale, I would highly recommend working with Kim.

We learned about Kim through a local wedding planner that we adore, Whim Events. After each meeting with Kim, we leave with inspiration and can't wait to accomplish the goals and ideas, all due to our brainstorming sessions with Kim. We are already experiencing higher profits and can't wait to see further, smarter & positive business growth, that has come through Kim's creative and professional approach.

Working with Kim was the best investment of time and money I've made in my business so far. I'm particularly grateful for her coaching around sales- she helped me establish a process that feels comfortable and authentic, and, as a result, is effective with my ideal clients! Her organized approach, practical advice, and 360-degree perspective on my business were key factors for a sane and successful business launch.
