Mini Spotlight: Meat Market Startup
"Dr. Paul recently helped the owner of a startup meat market prepare to raise $215K through an SBA loan for a new premium meat market and online store in Florida. He researched startup costs, completed a detailed cost-viability analysis, advised on location strategy, and helped structure the online sales component alongside the physical store. Dr. Paul also wrote a full business plan with financial projections covering both the brick-and-mortar operation and the e-commerce model, giving the owner a clear, lender-ready package for funding."

Mini Case Study: DeLand, FL - Artisan Downtown Hotel
The Historic ARTISAN Downtown Hotel, located at 215 S Woodland Blvd in DeLand, offers boutique luxury right in the center of the city’s walkable downtown district. Known for its restored Spanish-colonial architecture, the hotel features just fourteen uniquely designed guest rooms, a stylish cocktail lounge, and the popular Cuban-inspired CHICAS Café. Guests love its blend of historic charm and modern comfort, as well as its unbeatable proximity to DeLand’s restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues. One interesting fact: the building was meticulously renovated to preserve its original façade, making it one of the few downtown properties that still carries DeLand’s early architectural character forward.
How our Business Consultant Can Help
Boutique hotel owners are often exceptional at design, hospitality, and creating memorable guest experiences, but the business side can be overwhelming. Financial projections, cash-flow analysis, renovation cost justification, and even website optimization usually fall outside their comfort zone. That’s where a business consultant like Dr. Paul steps in. Specializing in helping trade-smart but business-weak CEOs, Dr. Paul uses his Organize-Plan-Grow™ Strategy to turn chaos into clarity. He helps hotel operators improve operations, understand their financial statements, evaluate whether renovations or expansions make sense, and strengthen the systems that keep the business running smoothly. With better structure and insight, boutique hotels can grow confidently and profitably.
Frequently Asked Questions

Downtown DeLand is the heart of the local economy. Its historic charm, walkable streets, events, festivals, and strong foot traffic create constant opportunities for small retailers, restaurants, and boutique service businesses to grow and thrive.
How does DeLand’s economy compare to surrounding areas?
DeLand maintains a stable, diverse economy supported by Stetson University, tourism, hospitality, professional services, and construction. Its blend of college-town energy and historic tourism gives small businesses a strong year-round customer base rather than a heavy seasonal swing.
Does DeLand’s proximity to Daytona Beach benefit local businesses?
