I’m John Avery—small business owner, retail veteran, and consultant based in Rock Springs, WY. After 7 years managing a high-volume store and 3 years running my own, I built Pivotive to help other small business owners turn their pressure into process.

I Work Best With…

If you’ve said any of these, it’s time to Pivot.

  • “I feel like everything depends on me.”

  • "I have a team, but nothing’s consistent.”

  • “We’re busy—but not profitable.”

  • “I don’t even know what I’d delegate if I could.”

  • “I’m buried in to-do’s and burnout.”
