⚙️ Business Advisor | Communication Coach

Hi!

Put my 30 years as a business advisor and 19 years as a mentor and advisor for startups to work for you. One small manufacturer, estimated that the results of an 8 hour engagement offered more than 100 times what they paid. Reach out and let's see if we get along.

Drawing from my journey from trauma survivor and lifelong introvert to technical communicator, communication judge, and pitch coach, I can help even the quietest expert be a confident communicator.

If you're wondering which way to go after graduating or transitioning from the military, lets' talk about the Business Ownership Bootcamp.

No hype. Just human connection and value offered.

TESTIMONIALS

A manufacturing client had this to say:
“I was the Operations VP for an engineer-to-order company in the food packaging industry and brought Joy Montgomery in to improve our operations, procedures and documentation. When I arrived at work one morning, I had a message that my Plant Operations Manager was in the hospital. I asked Joy to cover the shop floor operations. The Ops manager was off for over a week and in that time Joy kept everything moving along and insured that the focus was where it should be. Joy has always been the type of person who doesn’t ask (helplessly) ‘what can I do?’ – she will ask ‘what has to be done?’, and that makes a big difference in what can be accomplished.” Ray Baert, Operations Management Consultant
❤️ (I felt like bursting into "God Bless America" every time I went to the shop floor)

One colleague had this to say:
“Joy Montgomery doesn’t waste any time getting to the core of the situation and this makes her solutions and suggestions effective and easy to implement. This not only saves time and money, but gets you to where you want to go.” Jorge Prera, Operations Management Professional

A small business owner offered this opinion:
“We hired Joy to help our company with our systems, and using her techniques, we have found many holes in our processes and systems. We now implement her same strategies in other parts of our business and systems. I recommend her highly for any company who thinks their systems and processes are working, you are about to be amazed at the new results she can help you create. We happily highly Recommend Joy." Mark Kemp, Business Owner at Internet Marketing Power Team

“As an engineer I tend to lean into technical descriptions. Joy has a unique talent to help me transfer my language into a story of impact and value. I'm now drastically more equipped to talk to investors, funders, and clients. I highly recommend Joy.” - Sam Malagon

“I asked her to review and comment on a webinar that I’d developed. Joy demonstrates all the critical skills an excellent editor requires: a keen eye for detail, a capacity to shape the narrative of a story and the ability to provide constructive criticism with compassion and sensitivity. The input Joy provided has clearly resulted in a superior version of my webinar.” - Andrew Green

“Joy is a thoughtful judge who recognizes and applies quality criteria in technical communications, provides valuable feedback to the entrants, and is a pleasure to work with. I was delighted to re-meet with Joy at Toastmasters District 57 Conferences, where she is a frequent and dedicated presenter on communication and leadership topics.” – Tonie Flores

Let's meet and see if we feel comfortable working together.
