Our Story

It started with a simple question.

"Why can’t we have it all?"

Okay, maybe not so simple. But shouldn't it be?

For business owners, the default setting is “DIY.” But you can't be an expert in everything, and there are only so many hours in a day.

Hiring is expensive and time-consuming. How many hours have you wasted searching for the perfect candidate?

Through years of feeling overworked and overwhelmed, like we couldn’t take a day off, we wondered why it was so hard to get help.

Why do the big businesses get all the consultants and “experts” while we—who drive growth, create jobs and build businesses from the ground up—have to do it all ourselves?

Why can’t we have both?

Why can’t we have it all?

We set out to be the resource that we always wanted:

Someone to hear our heartbeat. To tell our story. To create systems that empower us to rise above the day-to-day and work towards our goals. To allow a life of clarity, simplicity, peace and hope.

We believe.

Getting the help you need to reach your goals should not be cost-prohibitive.

Everyone should be treated with respect.

Integrity and honesty are the backbone of any successful business.

Everyone needs an advocate.

When you do what you love, you’re never really working.

There is power in passion for your work.

Everyone has talents—but different talents—and it’s our challenge to identify and grow them.

Trust is earned.

Magic happens when you work with people who are aligned with you in spirit and character.

Openness and authenticity are paramount.

Anything can be achieved, if you have the will to change.

Our Inspiration

Ollin

Our namesake, Ollin, is the Aztec symbol for movement. Pronounced ALL-in, it represents change, growth, and wholehearted transformation. In the Aztec calendar, an Ollin day is a good day for activity and a bad day to be passive.

Ollin is found in the force of an earthquake and the beat of a butterfly’s wing. It is the centering, pulsating movement of becoming the next and greater version of yourself.

To achieve Ollin, we must move and act with all our heart. We must open ourselves to change and move with intention. To experience Ollin, we have to get “all in.”

Reach

For many business owners, success means an ever-growing to-do list. Eventually, your workday bares a scant resemblance to what inspired you to get in this business in the first place.

We started Ollin Reach to help business owners push past that stagnation, past the status quo, and reach their full potential. With our team behind you, you have the freedom and clarity you need to reach your goals and dreams.

It's our goal to provide you with the freedom to reach past your comfort zone, to reach for more, to finally reach what you've been working towards.

Omotenashi

Omotenashi was born in the high culture of chakai, the Japanese tea ceremony. It represents the anticipation of needs, to act without being asked, the height of personal service.

In chakai, the host carefully prepares every aspect of the ceremony to match perfectly with the guest, down to selecting the ideal teacup. The thoughtful consideration involved is immense—and invisible.

It is done not for thanks or congratulation, but for the honor of providing a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Omotenashi is the level of service to which we aspire.
