About Business Consulting with Zest:
Why We're Different
Why We're Different

Our Holistic Viewpoint
We have owned our own businesses, worn all the hats, and understand that for most small business leaders, there tends to be very little separation between personal life and professional life. When you feel out of balance at work, it’s hard not to take it home and vice versa. Our consultants provide you with the ultimate business leader toolkit so you can not only grow your business but also create a work life that enhances your overall enjoyment of life instead of taking away from it.

We love FAST!
We have the tools to get you where you want to be – and if we have our way, you’ll arrive QUICKLY (of course you’ll have to do your part). It’s not unusual for our clients to start feeling a shift toward the positive in the first few weeks of working together.
Zest from Clients
"I called Jennifer Martin to help me get my business ready to sell. I was burnt out and sick & tired of being sick & tired. Within the first 3 weeks of working together I started making changes and miraculously things started working better day by day.
Eleven months have gone by now and my life has changed. I am happy, I spend more time with my family, and my staff works well together. I love my business again and it’s thriving like never before. What can I say? I love Jen."

Jennifer Martin
Business Consultant
EMyth Certified Business Coach
Jennifer’s work as a Zest Business Consultant, an EMyth Certified Business Coach, and Professional Speaker draws on her 25+ years of business experience helping organizations large and small make millions of dollars. She’s had solid history of success working with large companies in many different industries (Clear Channel Communications, Union Pacific Railroad, 7-Eleven Stores, CompUSA, etc.) as well as solopreneurs and small to medium sized businesses. She has owned and operated several businesses including a retail store, a restaurant and catering business, a publishing company, and a real estate investment and property management firm. So in addition to her big business experience, she knows first hand the joys, challenges, and stresses of operating a small business.
On the personal development side, Jennifer has completed training as a Life Coach with NLP Life Coaching Academy and has also been certified as a hypnotherapist. She is the co-author of More Love, More Joy!, a book created to help people learn how to get more of what they want in their relationships.
Jennifer’s Perspective:
“My passion has always been helping people make money and create a life that they love. Knowing that everyone I meet has their own talents, passions, and interests, I support each of my clients uniquely to best utilize what comes naturally to them. So even if I’m working with several different businesses in the same industry, my approach will always be different. It's not uncommon for me to hear, ‘I forgot how much fun this could be,’ or ‘I can't believe how making such a small change could make such a big difference in our profits.’
I’ve been watching business change over the last 30 years. What worked 5 years ago doesn’t necessarily work now. People need to approach their businesses with new ideas and new strategies in order to reach their potential. Thankfully when it comes to business I have a sixth sense. I can generally “see” a clear path to get my clients from where they are to where they want to be. Combining this intuition with my grounded background in business development provides a surefire route to success."
A Note from Jennifer
"I’ve discovered that with the right strategies anyone can make more money, more efficiently and have even more personal time to do things they enjoy. Isn’t it your turn to reach ALL your goals?”
What Gives
Her Life Zest
"I LOVE MY WORK! I honestly can’t think of anything more satisfying than hearing that a client has tripled their revenues, spent their first Saturday at home in years, or that they love going to work again.
When I’m not helping someone achieve their goals I adore foreign travel, trying new restaurants, taking walks by the water, going to garage sales, laughing with my family and friends, and pretty much doing anything that will give me insight to how other people live or experience life.”
