Certified Business Consultant - 
Dr. James McArn, Ph.D. 

I’m Dr. James McArn, and as one of the Atlanta areas leading business consultants, I educate business owners on how to run the type of business they want. I help create focused, profitable, and growing businesses by getting owners focused on the areas of business they need help the most. 

I will help you work on marketing, finance, leadership, employee training, customer retention and many more areas that are vital to the growth of ones business. 

Strategy can frequently be lacking in smaller to medium sized businesses, however, it is a cornerstone to success. If you don’t have a strategy or don’t have a strategy that is working, call me today. We’ll start with a business growth plan that will be customized with the strategies and techniques that will get you started on what’s needed to launch you towards your vision.

I take pride in seeing my clients succeed, so let me help you achieve the levels of success that YOU envisioned when you embarked on the journey of owning your own business. 

Through the many blessings of our almighty Father, I am a family man, a high-achiever, and someone who loves to help business owners, like you, achieve what they want from their business.
