"I had worked for months on putting together all the right pieces of my business concept so that I could start a business plan. I started to work on a business plan myself and quickly became frustrated and confused. This is when I found Kylon Gustin with Business Plan Advice. From the first meeting with Kylon, I knew I was in good hands. He asked me poignant and open-ended questions and we worked together to place all of the gathered pieces within this amazing business plan and PowerPoint Presentation. I could have not finished the plan without Kylon's professional guidance and acumen. Kylon was responsive, patient, creative, and on target. He met and exceeded my expectations and I appreciate everything he did to make my business plan and PowerPoint presentation such a huge success with everyone who sees them. Excellent work and service! Thank you."

"As President of Austin Inventors and Entrepreneurs Association (AIEA) the most common question I get is "I have this great idea, now what?". Kylon's thoughtful presentation on the business planning process was right on target for the needs of the individual inventor and entrepreneur. His experienced guidance on the value and process of planning was of great help to the AIEA members. AIEA recommends Kylon's services for anyone struggling through the business planning process."

"My name is Marc Weisman. I am a physician and software entrepreneur.
After interviewing nearly a dozen business consultants, I hired Kylon to work with me to write a Business Plan.
The Plan is exceptional and I so enjoyed working with Kylon that I intend to hire him as a business advisor as this venture enters its next phase.
I found Kylon to be honest, diligent, prompt and knowledgeable.
I particularly respect his proclivity for a challenge which is matched by his solution oriented attitude.
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Kylon and I recommend him enthusiastically and without hesitation.
Although as a general rule I am far too busy to take unnecessary calls, I will answer anyone calling or writing me to inquire about my experience with Kylon Gustin."

I used Kylon Gustin’s expertise to create a plan to acquire the nearly $8million required for my current 38 unit town home development in Hyde Park. I should receive full funding within the next two weeks, thanks to the very well put together business plan by Kylon.
I would highly recommend Kylon Gustin of SMR Services for any and all business plan development needs.
Kylon has met and exceeded my expectations for my business plan; including graphics, presentation and content. He has provided me with an instrument that will ensure funding of my current project.
Kylon has completed all tasks in a timely manner and has always been readily available to discuss any changes that I needed for my business plan.
I plan on using Kylon Gustin’s expertise on future endeavors and am very grateful to have used him as my business plan developer."

"SabreMark, Inc., handles marketing and strategic planning for major companies. We have special marketing expertise in industries focused on entertainment, software, hardware, bio-medical and consumer electronics. We also handle celebrity branding and licensing in the music industry with clients as large as Fleetwood Mac.
I've worked with Kylon Gustin of BRS, Inc., for about three years on various projects. Kylon is a detail oriented, honorable and extremely knowledgeable professional. I’ve worked through complex planning programs with Kylon over long periods of time.
He remains focused, gets projects moving and keeps overcoming hurdles which stop lesser consultants. Kylon has an intensely powerful understanding of the “big picture” relating to business plans. His experiential base is extraordinarily wide and he’s able to draw from past experiences to enhance specific plans. Few business planning professionals have the 'whole picture' depth of knowledge and broad experiential base combination, which makes Kylon an exceptional partner for us.
I have never known Kylon to fail at a task or to miss a deadline. His personal levels of honor and reliability are rare and highly valued by our firm. Finally, Kylon thinks out of the box. He suggests alternate routes well worth perusing and while staying the course, offers alternatives for our review. Simply put, Kylon is an exceptional partner, consultant and is highly recommended by SabreMark, our staff and me, personally."
