Your business doesn't need a list of recommendations.

“Several years ago, when I was on the newly formed LPF Affiliate Support Committee, we made a handbook for how to start and run an affiliate. Brent was an invaluable resource and contributed heavily to the project. Not only did he have a lot of helpful suggestions, he was readily accessible and willing to answer questions—and, honestly, was just a delight to get to know.”

“Brent made a huge impact on me during a grassroots outreach training in Nashville. He put into words something I knew deep down but had never been able to articulate: as much as we value the individual, none of us can do life alone. We rely on one another, we have to work together, and we need to remember that in the way we engage with people. Brent made the point beautifully, and I remember it to this day.”

“Sweet Marie’s Diner began as a dream our family had talked about for years. Brent helped turn that dream into an actual business. He took everything we wanted Sweet Marie’s to represent—family, good food, community, and taking care of people—and helped build the brand, strategy, systems, website, marketing, and programs around it.

With his help, our merchandise shop became profitable before we even opened our doors for service, and our Feed A Neighbor program is already funded and ready to launch on opening day.

When plans changed or problems came up, Brent always found another way forward. He has helped shape nearly every part of the business, from our menu and customer experience to events, partnerships, community programs, and long-term growth. Sweet Marie’s would not be what it is today without him.”

“The Sugar Shack started as a small drink stand doing a few events and setting up roadside. Marker 90 helped us turn it into a real, growing business with regular events and a permanent location. They helped develop our brand, expand our menu, find new opportunities, create family activities, and build our online presence.

Now we’re growing our permanent location, expanding the menu even further, and building a mobile service unit so we can take the Sugar Shack to more events. Marker 90 didn’t just give us ideas—they helped make the Sugar Shack what it is and continue finding new ways for us to grow.”

“I’m not much for the internet. I just enjoy singing and making music with my friends. Brent has helped me take that and start building something around it without trying to turn me into somebody I’m not.

He created my Facebook page, helps make content, puts together my flyers and print advertising, and is working on improving my YouTube channel. We’re taking it one step at a time, and he makes sure everything fits my personality and what I actually want to accomplish. I get to focus on singing, and he helps me share my passion with the next generation and keep the music I love alive.”
