Testimonials

We are lucky to know a ton of great people who we believe in and who believe in us.  Here is what they are saying about Silver Lining.

“I have been over-complicating and consequently stifling my own progress for years. The SLAP™ process was a total wake-up call that brought the important aspects of my business back into focus so I could actually build it the way I’ve always dreamed of. I feel re-energized and able to lead my organization with confidence. I got a SLAP™.”

-Nick Tarascio, CEO, Ventura Air Services, Private Aviation

“For the small business owner – who is doing ‘everything’ in his or her business – but wants to find a way to take it to the next level, Silver Lining has the tools and resources to help you achieve success. I’ve found that with by working on your business – not in it doing all the day-to-day administrative tasks – you can double or triple your revenue while improving profits. I’ve experienced a SLAP™ and it can help you make this transition with a 12-month action plan, with concrete action items. Plus, you’re guided by your own personal SLAP™ expert who’s with you every step of the way.  Every small business needs a SLAP™.”

-Bryan Janeczko, Serial entrepreneur, Founder of Wicked Start

“Getting a SLAP™ helped me to see that I was working for way under my value in my business and that I was in a partnership that was no longer serving my partner or me.  Through working with Silver Lining I was able to see my business clearly for the first time in my life.  Over the past eight months since I got a SLAP™ my business revenue has increased significantly and I feel a renewed excitement and happiness around my business, which is by far the most important part.  I got a SLAP™.”

-Kate Northrup, CEO, Team Northrup

“Young businesses are the lifeblood of our economy.  Entrepreneurs are so focused on the day-to-day of running their company they forget to look at the big picture.  The team at Silver Lining has done an amazing job of helping these entrepreneurs figure out how to grow, set growth goals, and most importantly stay accountable to those goals.  If a business isn’t growing it’s not thriving, and you only manage what you measure.  Every small business needs a SLAP™.”

-Graham Siener, VP of Customer Development, Profitably

“Both my son and I are military men who are accustomed to solid, detailed pllans of action.  But when it came to running our production company, those kinds of plans didn’t exactly translate.  Then along came Carissa Reiniger and her Silver Lining Action Plan.  It was like a cold ‘SLAP™’ in our collective business ‘face’ and exactly what we needed to take our company to the next level.  Even during the roughest economic seas we’ve sailed in years, we survived because we had a great plan.  Make a plan, execute the plan and stick to the plan, and the next SLAP™ you’ll hear is the sound of cold ‘cash on the dash’.  I got a SLAP™.”

-Tom Kimball, Owner, Kimball Productions

“It is too easy to lose sight of the drivers of our business because we are busy reacting and not planning and implementing.  The SLAP™ really has helped us recognize what we need to be focused on and it has helped us stay focused.  It has also helped us become very clear about who we are, who our customers are, and what we want from our business.  I got a SLAP™!”

-Adriana De Luca, Founder and CEO, Tiber River Naturals, Inc.

“Green Hectares anticipates that the SLAP™ can become an important ingredient for sustaining the small and medium sized farms and rural businesses over the next several years.  Some business challenges are universal whether you are in a rural area or urban centre.  The SLAP™ system effectively addresses these challenges at a cost that is accessible to every rural and agri-business that we have encountered.  We see the SLAP as a tool to help build the agri-food industry’s promising future.  Every small business needs a SLAP™.”

-Carlene Van Brabant, Communications Manager, Green Hectares

“Who would have ‘thunk’ it? A personal training business, in the business of motivation and accountability, needing a company that provides just that. Well, in our case Silver Lining was the trainer for small businesses. When we were not sure what we needed or how to get there, Silver Lining guided and encouraged us to greater profits, organized goals and a realistic yet exciting future. Thanks Silver Lining – sometimes all a business needs is a good SLAP™!”

-Jesse Lipscombe, President and Founder, P.H.A.T. Training

“The SLAP™ is a well thought out process for business growth.  By meeting smaller goals that are collaboratively set, I am, by default, pointed towards the larger goal. … Doing the SLAP™ reminded me of why I started in business, and it gave me the tools and strategies to bring it to its full potential, one small, manageable, step at a time.  Thanks Silver Lining, I sure am glad I got a SLAP™!”

-Martin Reid, President, Personal Victory Fitness Consulting
