Elevating Vision into Action - At Lucent Strategic, we provide clear, actionable strategies that help small to midsize businesses grow with confidence. From marketing to operations, we offer modern solutions grounded in integrity, performance, and partnership. Our mission is simple: to illuminate the path forward for every business we serve—no fluff, just real results.
Lucent Strategic Business Solutions was born from necessity and vision.
After nearly two decades in law enforcement and public service, our founder recognized a consistent gap in how small businesses—especially high-risk or niche ventures—were being supported. Too many agencies offered generic solutions, ignoring the unique challenges these businesses faced.
What began as consulting and marketing advice for close friends and veteran-owned businesses quickly evolved into a full-service agency focused on clarity, integrity, and practical strategy. Lucent was built to cut through the noise, offering actionable insight and dependable support to help growing businesses shine.
Backed by real-world experience, strategic partnerships, and a deep understanding of small business pain points, Lucent is more than just a consulting firm—it’s a trusted ally in sustainable growth.
Small businesses—especially those in high-risk, regulated, or niche markets—are consistently underserved by traditional marketing and consulting firms.
They’re either priced out of quality services, pushed into cookie-cutter strategies that don’t apply to their industry, or left confused by jargon-heavy pitches that promise everything and deliver nothing.
These business owners need:
Clear, actionable advice
Affordable growth strategies
A trusted partner who understands their world
Help navigating compliance, customer acquisition, and digital presence without wasting time or money
📊 How Big Is This Problem?
There are 33.2 million small businesses in the U.S. alone (SBA, 2023), and over 1 million fall into high-risk categories like firearms sales, vape, supplements, CBD, crypto, adult services, and more.
Add to that veteran-owned businesses, law enforcement entrepreneurs, and underserved rural business owners—and you've got a massive, growing market desperate for smart, strategic help.
Most of these businesses don’t have the time or budget for bloated agencies or endless trial-and-error. They need something lean, direct, and built for them. That’s where Lucent steps in.
Lucent delivers tailored, practical business solutions for underserved and high-risk industries—without the fluff, guesswork, or bloated costs.
Whether it's marketing strategy, digital presence, operations consulting, or connecting you with trusted merchant service providers, we help small businesses grow smart, fast, and sustainably.

What Makes Us Different?
🛡️ We understand regulated and high-risk markets. Most agencies don’t even know where to start.
🔧 No cookie-cutter plans. Every business is unique. Our solutions flex with your needs.
🤝 Veteran & LEO roots. We speak plain language, we follow through, and we don’t ghost you after payday.
💼 Plug-in Partnerships. Need merchant services? POS? Marketing automation? Done. We bring the whole toolbox.
Lucent generates revenue through consulting retainers, project-based marketing packages, affiliate commissions from trusted business solutions, and recurring subscriptions to digital tools and templates. This multi-stream model keeps revenue flowing while staying lean and scalable.
Lucent will enter the market by targeting underserved business owners through referral networks, local engagement, niche-focused digital marketing, and personalized outreach. We will leverage our veteran/LEO connections, existing ventures, and strategic partnerships to generate warm leads while offering irresistible entry-point services and value-first content to convert cold leads into clients.
None yet, we haven't started.
Vision Statement
Lucent’s vision is to become the trusted strategic partner for small businesses in high-risk or underserved spaces. Our roadmap includes launching core consulting services, developing digital products, and building a recurring revenue model through white-labeled tools. Marketing efforts will grow from organic authority-building to targeted paid acquisition, all while reinforcing a brand built on clarity, confidence, and consistent client wins.
I run lean by design. Right now, Lucent Strategic is led solely by me—but I'm backed by a network of trusted partners in finance, merchant services, and digital tech. This model gives clients boutique attention with enterprise-level capabilities. When I need a specialist, I don’t hire—I call in the best.
Not actively raising funds, but I’m open to strategic investment conversations—especially if it accelerates growth without requiring equity dilution or operational oversight.
Start with clarity and keep it simple.
Know what problem you solve, who you solve it for, and how to communicate that clearly. Don’t get caught up trying to look big or do everything at once. Build relationships, focus on delivering value, and stay consistent. Growth comes from momentum—not perfection.
Don’t get fancy—get focused.
Everyone wants a logo, a website, and a mission statement—but what you really need is paying customers. Start small, make it ugly if you have to, and get feedback fast. Talk to people. Build trust. The clean branding can come later. Get money in the door first.
Treat it like a mission.
Know your objective, prep your gear, but don’t freeze waiting on a perfect plan. Action beats anxiety every time. You’ll take hits, you’ll improvise, and you’ll learn fast. Just don’t quit. The only failed business is the one that never got off the ground.
Nobody knows everything when they start—and that’s okay.
You don’t need to be an expert in everything. What you do need is courage, curiosity, and the willingness to learn as you go. Build your business one good decision at a time. You’ll make mistakes, but you’ll make progress too. Keep going.
