JEFF LEVY

I am a passionate advocate for small business ownership and believe that franchises are an accessible option for many people.  I have coached more than 1000 people, with over 350 becoming franchise owners.

I have consulted in all major aspects of small business ownership:

  • Focus in franchising

  • Emerging technology ventures

  • Leveraged and management buyouts

  • Raising capital

  • Coaching hundreds of startup businesses

  • Past Chairman of the Entrepreneurship Center at Seattle University

  • Affiliation with Entrepreneur’s Source

I believe in self-employment as a career path and am a frequent speaker on this topic. I am the co-author of Making the Jump – Into Small Business Ownership, a practical guide for aspiring entrepreneurs. I am active in the Seattle SBA and was nominated for the SBA’s “2016 Small Business Advocate” award.


“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jeff and highly recommend him to anyone looking to start a business or just figuring out what’s next from a career perspective. His knowledge, guidance, and genuine commitment to helping me succeed have been invaluable. Jeff took the time to understand my goals and provide thoughtful, practical, and actionable advice.

What stands out most is how much he truly cares. Jeff is encouraging, responsive, and deeply invested in helping people make confident decisions and build a strong foundation for long-term success. I’m grateful for his support and confidently recommend Jeff as a trusted advisor and career coach.”
