"Clay has unveiled how much more there is to successfully operate a healthy and prosperous business. He’s given us the tools to increase our sales by 17%, while increasing our margins by 14 percentage points!! PTBP is a great investment for any business owner. The help, guidance, and insight you obtain from their service is immeasurably valuable."

"I met Clay by washing his roof and house over a year ago. Clay's business is top notch and you won't be disappointed. If you're looking to grow your business and be a step ahead, call Clay. He's super knowledgeable and friendly and actually cares about your Business."

"Clay and his team have been very profession bringing great insight into our company. Especially in the areas of operation and organization. They have done a great job helping us identify areas of improvement and implementing strategies and plans for overcoming those obstacles and growing as a business. We've seen tangible results, 18% increase in profit margin as well as reducing excess costs by 7% and increased revenue by 15%. I would highly recommend Clay and his team. They offer a fresh perspective backed by years of experience and expertise.."

"If you want to stop working IN the business and want to start working ON the business, then give Clay and his team a call! They have revolutionized our company and I can't say enough about how bright our future is because of Clay. Growth is happening, expenses are down profit is up and most importantly, my life isn't crazy anymore.... Thank you Clay and team!"

“Over the past few months, I’ve gleaned pragmatic approaches to my business and built incentives directly related to productivity. I’ve organized my goals and I’ve refined my vision with clarity and purpose. Without the collaborative work of PTBP, these things would’ve remained in a foggy cloud of mere intentions.”

I brought a laundry list of items to Clay that I needed help working through as a relatively new owner of an established business that was experiencing a changing business model along with growth and expansion. Clay used his years of experience to take me through what I would call a mini-MBA and helped me develop a plan to run the business in a more effective and efficient manner. I now have better tools for managing the business and have been able to free up financial resources to address the needs of a growing business. Clay is now a friend and trusted resource that I know I can come back to when the business faces future challenges.

"If you’re like me and put so much effort into your small business that starting over would never be an option, invest in the security of it by calling PTBP. I can guarantee you that Clay will save you more than you pay him monetarily, and what you’ll gain in peaceful nights rest and time watching your kids grow up will be unmeasurable. Without any reservation whatsoever, I highly recommend Clay, and Part Time Business Partners."

"Part Time Business Partners helped us assess problems and where they were actually coming from in our video production business. Clay did a remarkable job at slowing it down, breaking down the processes, quickbooks and accounting, and showing us the true numbers and costs behind our business we hadn’t been able to see before. After working with them, I feel confident that I understand where we are, that I know the right steps for moving forward, and I feel like I have a killer coach in my corner."

Since working with Clay, our businesses were able to accurately identify problems that have helped us make tough, but needed decisions for the growth of the business. Our financial accuracy is also better than ever!

"I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Clay and his team have coached me in two different business roles over the past 4+ years. In the first role, he helped us grow our business from thousands to millions of dollars in revenue while building systems and processes for sustained profitability. Now, Clay is coaching me through starting a new business. His wisdom, network and real-life experiences are priceless, and I am confident that I would not be the business leader that I am now without his help."

"Clay Dennis is a highly skilled coach, intellectually nimble to guide those across various industries in a transformational experience. His sessions are carefully planned and customized to your unique needs and situations. He brings a thoughtful approach, providing insightful guidance and advice specific to you. He takes great care and patience with delving deep into the details, often opening the dialogue to explore new aspects that you have never thought of. Highly recommended!"

"My husband and I are venturing into a new business. Clay was very professional and knowledgeable about every aspect. He brought up things some may not consider. He was definitely beneficial in answering any and all questions. I would highly recommend Part Time Business Partners to anyone seeking guidance."

"Working with Clay has been such a great experience. As a new business owner (Odd Dog Obedience Training), we had some of the foundational things done, but were at a stalemate on a path for growth. We know what we know about training a dog but needed some guidance on the business side of things and Clay met us where we were. He spent time getting to know us and what we do in order to share tools that he knew would help us get more organized and grow. It's really cool how he can work with large corporations and then turn around and work with a small business like ours. He is kind and knowledgable and makes us feel comfortable to ask questions so we are set up for success. I can't recommend him enough for anyone starting out or for those that have started but are feeling stuck!"

Clay stepped in to help us move all of our fundraising in house and really helped us move forward in a strong direction. He is great to work with!

"As a business owner, there are times when you get stuck in a rut with the way you operate your company. We hired Clay to address a few concerns we had. Over time, we've been able to work on fixing a number of broken processes and lay out a new path so the company can move forward and grow. Each time we've met, Clay has consistently provided good advice, given clear insight, and quided us on a number of pressing issues. From time to time, we use his company as a sounding board. In turn, they've trusted us with their own clients through referral and stewarded both those clients and our team well as we work together for mutual gain. This is how business relationships should be."

"The folks at Part Time Business Partners provide insights that only a business owner could and they have worked as hard at making my business successful as I suspect they did theirs. I’m grateful.”

"I’m a relatively young business owner and gaining some insight on ways that I can improve my business through budgeting, tracking and implementing new systems and processes are just the beginning of how Clay Dennis has helped me out! I look forward to continuing building a relationship with him as you can tell he genuinely cares for people and has a passion for helping businesses grow and thrive! Can’t say enough good things about this man and his work!"

"Clay is motivating and clear in his approach to help you understand your business better and accomplish goals both short and long term. I have enjoyed working with him and have learned a lot in the process."

"Clay and John helped me with a career change and I can honestly say I could have never managed it without their help. They were there every step of the way, not only to get the process completed, but to pick me up when I questioned myself and to give me direction when I thought I was lost. Thanks PTBP for helping me with this life changing move!"

"Clay has been extremely diligent in working with me and my team to get all of our systems and processes tightened up to prepare for growth. He has a strong ability to take the things we have learned organically over the years and help to build written processes. Additionally, he has helped us get focused on the key indicators in our business that are already making us more profitable."

"Most business owners have products and/or services that they obsess over, but, neglect the vehicle to get it to the people (the business itself). Clay has a knack for helping guide us business owners to give said vehicle the attention, love, and maintenance it deserves. His help continues to produce and I am super grateful."

"Clay has worked tirelessly to help us understand what we needed to move beyond our first year with clear goals to propel us into the future. He has been able to link us with other business professionals including someone to improve and upgrade our website, insurance needs, Google reviews and event planning. He has been invaluable bringing direction and leadership to our family which allows each member to focus on strengths within the company. There is now a calm and peaceful feeling among us where before we were all trying to make decisions and stepping on each other's toes. I am so happy we found Clay and I would highly recommend his services."

"Clay and his team have helped me tremendously grow my business! The thoughtfulness, advice, and learning from their own failures is so valuable. Clay’s expertise in systems, and mapping out your goals made a huge impact on how I make decisions. Let’s be honest, working “on” your business instead of “in” your business takes a lot of sacrifice, but man is it worth it!"

"Clay helped us set goals, challenged us to think outside of our norms, and found several critical areas that helped us improve profitability. He’s understanding, caring, and genuine. I can’t recommend him enough."

"This year, Inheritance Construction wanted to step up our business game and learn how to grow. A friend recommended Part Time Business Partners. We are so grateful for the time, practical business experience and genuine care that Clay shared with our team. We learned about margin, KPI’s and so much more. Our business experienced its best year to date! Don’t delay, call Clay!"

We have been working with Clay as our business coach for the last month, and he is awesome. He has gone above and beyond our expectations in this time period. Clay is professional, personable, and gives key insights on business. If you are in business, then you need Clay to help you become the owner you should be. Highly recommend.

Clay at Part Time Business Partners has been incredibly helpful in reshaping our understanding of our business, sales, and margins. His strategic guidance on increasing margins has been invaluable. Most importantly, he helps you develop a business mindset that is crucial for success. Highly recommend!

"We are so excited to see how much growth our business has had this year! 37% increase in gross sales compared to 2022; 16% increase in net profit; but the most exciting part to us is that Clay helped us learn to delegate more (without losing money!) so we could step back from the day-to-day operations and breathe a little better. We hired more employees, promoted existing ones, and had a 65% increase in payroll costs, yet we MAINTAINED our gross and net profit margins from 2022, even with the added expenses. As a business owner, it's common to feel like you never truly get a break, but we have worked the least amount of hours this year and made the most money to date. We could never be here without the guidance, support, and encouragement we had from Clay this year. We are honored to know him and incredibly grateful.

"Clay is great to work with and really knows what he's doing. He easily lays out a path for success for his clients and then helps them achieve that success. I would 100% recommend him to any business owner needing help!"

Clay has provided great business coaching to us. We are very grateful for the changes that he is helping us to implement. If your business is stuck in a rut or you have come to the end of your ideas, Clay can help you to get unstuck and bring in new perspectives. I highly recommend his service and expertise.

"We hired Clay and his team a few months ago to help us professionalize some of our systems and procedures. I have been so amazed at the progress he has helped us make in a relatively short time. He is thoughtful, responsive, and very patient with us. His advice and mentorship have changed our business and the experience of our team and clients that are a part of it indefinitely!"

"Being in business for 25 years, we have a lots of experience figuring out how to get by and make things work. Enter Clay Dennis... As a result of his expertise, we now have systems in place that make things much more predictable. For the first time since 1997, we have an understanding of how all the moving parts of our business connect, how to set realistic and attainable goals, and how to track our efforts to meet them."

"I was referred to Clay, and I am so glad I called. He has been a huge support with a vast knowledge which has helped me feel more confident in running my business effectively and efficiently. If you're new to business or like myself, not familiar with the details of running a business, then call him!!!"

I have recently been meeting with Clay and he has already brought value to my business. He is a great listener and gives practical strategies. Looking forward to growing my business with Clay!

"Clay reached out to us to learn more about our business and offer some help in ways many small business owners often struggle with. Him coming from a service based business really helps validify understanding what I often struggle with. I feel like Clay truly cares about my business, my needs as a business owner and what stresses me out and he strives to provide help in a variety of ways. Clay and his wife Charlotte have been very instrumental in helping me understand some key business practices with our accounting software and finding some issues we could not get resolved from other business experts. Well worth the experience so far!!!"

“Although we have been blessed with a good crew and a plentiful customer base, I was struggling with helping my business get to the next level. Clay and his team have helped me to build a strong foundation and guide my business in a better more profitable direction. As a small business owner, I often feel overwhelmed by the responsibilities that plague me from day to day and it is a relief to know these guys are here to help.”

Very good at identifying issues, making a plan to solve them and good guidance on working the plan!

"Clay is a good listener, is very knowledgeable, and holds people accountable to their goals. But, more importantly, he helps you put a plan together to reach those goals. Not sure what your goals should be? He'll help you figure that out, too. Working with him has been a great experience! If you're looking for an advisor to help your company grow, Clay is your person!"

"Clay was very helpful in helping me with a couple projects. I would certainly recommend him."

"Working with Clay is not like working with any other advisor. He is personally invested in your success both on a business and personal level. His program structure is based on your needs not a predesigned format. He is very open minded, and I never feel like my goals are not relevant or that my questions are stupid. Clay’s calm demeanor is always supportive and encouraging. He goes above and beyond to assure you have the tools and knowledge to be successful and meet your goals."

I had the pleasure of working with Clay at Part Time Business Partners. The coaching and training sessions he provided were always on point. His extensive business knowledge was incredibly beneficial, and his insightful questions led to new perspectives for me. I am looking forward to working with him more in the future!

"The results speak for themselves. Clay helped me achieve a 22% increase in gross profit while improving our management efficiencies in just 7 months! I also made a friend out of it. I would highly recommend Clay to anyone willing to do the work."

Hiring Clay to partner with us was a great decision for our three companies. Over the last 11 months, Clay has helped us take control of our books, helped us create goals for each department and tracking systems to help hold people accountable. Everyone here now knows what's expected of them and reports their progress or status each week. Its exciting to have a clear vision of where our businesses is going to be in the future, and Part Time Business Partners has helped us achieve that!

"Clay has been the Ace Card I didn't know that I needed. He's generous and patient as he works with emerging business owners like myself who seek steady, yet REAL growth and success. Always thoughtful, professional and 10 steps ahead, I can count on his insight and resourcefulness to help me know just how to think through the hands I've been dealt. Plus the fact that he's approachable and a great listener makes me highly recommend him."

“Clay and his team went above and beyond for us. They put in tremendous effort to help us evaluate, progress, and leverage our efforts and weren’t afraid to use brutal honesty when necessary. They have a very beneficial system utilizing their talents to help give insight and assistance to any business type. I’ve enjoyed working with them and our time spent with them was very well spent.”

“PTBP has helped us develop best business practices and processes necessary to take our retail operations to the next level of performance. They have a ‘boots on the ground approach’ and have given us very genuine personal service. They are not satisfied until they know their clients are showing success with what they have developed. Their diverse expertise has greatly helped with our broad range of needs.”

"Clay has answered every question we have had for him and has brought up many things we haven't even thought about! His experience is evident from the knowledge he has already exposed us too in a short amount of time. We are very happy with our decision to choose Clay to guide us as we grow here at Bogs and Beauties!"

"Clay Dennis has been a tremendous asset to our business. He has helped us triple our revenue in one year! Also, he has helped us get organized, define our processes, and set our culture. I highly recommend Clay Dennis and Part Time Business Partners."

"As a business owner who has taken great pride in reaching the local market, I can personally attest to Part Time Business Partners drive and guaranteed satisfaction in expanding markets and enhancing bottom line potential. Clay and Charlotte have been exceptional in assisting both drive and innovation when it comes to making a difference. They truly are partners, from the beginning of the project to the ongoing maintenance. Their recommendations are a cut above the rest!"

“Part Time Business Partners helped us reduce the everyday chaos and put us back in control of our business.”

"Clay is the real deal, he’s behind the ones he helps 100 percent. He believes in our vision and has great plans to help us grow and great ways for us to execute that grow with real life plans for real life results. I would recommend him 10 times out of 10."

"Great having Clay on board for 3 months. He was able to get me straight to the basics of Accounting, something I never really learned, and coached me on better ways to track business results. Clay is gracious with his time, and has a wide reach in the Chattanooga business community. His rate is fair and has something for every size business."

"Clay and his team have helped us get the right people and systems in place, and the know-how required to keep them going. We are pouring more concrete than ever! Clay helped us to develop make-sense KPIs for each position and now we are seeing our gross profit nearly DOUBLED!"

"Last year I was a mess – disorganized, stressed out, not sure where I and the company were headed. Clay helped me straighten out my books, figure out where my money was being spent, developed a new website, etc. Here’s the part I like: Gross sales over the same period last year: Up 48%. Net profit: Up 40%. Profits are up, and my blood pressure is down. I couldn’t recommend them more highly."

"I have known these guys for years. I have watched them build solid and profitable businesses and more importantly - build teams and leaders. If you are wanting to improve your business or as a leader you should definitely give them a call."

Clay has been a phenomenal resource and blessing to my business. He has helped us create a roadmap to where we want to go, by way of helping us see where we are at. I have learned a tremendous amount from Clay about the ins and outs of working on my business. We at TruBlue are so thankful for him!
