The apps
Choose a stage to see what’s built for it.
The spine of the ecosystem. A guided curriculum that walks you from a rough idea to a business that holds together — with the reasoning behind every step, not just a checklist.
Everything a new owner needs in one place: startup roadmap, task checklists, business plan builder, budgeting and cost tools, and plain-language guidance on licenses and permits.
A framework for the shift from doing every job to running the place. Grand-scale decisions, strategic leadership, sustainable growth, legacy, and executive clarity.
Quote on site, shoot the before and after, send a branded invoice, take the payment. Built for cleaners, landscapers, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC techs.
Hiring, onboarding, scheduling, time tracking, PTO, and payroll prep for teams that will never have an HR department. Role-based access so people see only their own business.
Two views of the same business, side by side. Cash flow is the money in motion; EBITDA is the big picture. Learn which question each one answers before you make the call.
Set the targets, decode the ratios, model the what-ifs, and decide where the next dollar and the next hour go. Growth planning for owners without an analyst on staff.
Six steps from business setup to funded: EIN and compliance, credit profile, trade lines that actually report, and monitoring so you can watch the score move.
A digital business card with a QR code, exchanged both ways so you keep the lead too. Then notes, tags, follow-up reminders, and pipeline tracking on the people you met.
Finds prospects you haven't met, scores them, and tells you why each one fits — industry, company size, growth signals — then connects on LinkedIn and sends the email.
Describe one topic. Get posts written for Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube. You review and approve every one before it posts or schedules.
Every referrer gets their own link and QR code, and commission is tracked from the first scan through to the payout. Leaderboards, an earnings wallet, and a business directory.
Custom builds
You bring the industry know-how. I design and build the app, and we launch it together.

Every Monday, get practical business strategies, AI insights, technology updates, and real-world lessons to help you build, grow, and scale your business.
Why it exists
“Make complex business ideas easier to understand, easier to apply, and easier to act on.”
Partnership builds
Some apps start with someone else’s idea. You bring the industry know-how and the idea; I design and build the app, and we launch it together. Here is what has been built that way.
Built in partnership with a sign-industry expert
The operating system for sign companies: design the sign, get it permitted, then get it bid, built, installed and closed out. Each part works on its own and works better together.
Design, Permit and Build together in one login, sharing one job record from the first sketch to the final close-out.
Create sign designs, customer proofs and the vector files your fabricator needs, with every revision in one place.
Applications, permit packets, landlord signatures, customer updates, inspections and expiration dates, all in one place.
Send the approved sign out for bids, then run production, delivery, install and close-out on one board.
Built in partnership with a hospitality-industry partner
A tag on every table that opens the menu with a tap or a scan. Guests browse, leave a review and join the VIP list, and the restaurant gets the reviews, rewards and repeat visits that follow.
A tag on every table that opens your menu with a tap or a scan, with no app to download. Diners browse the menu, leave a review and join your VIP list, and you get the rewards, reviews and repeat visits that follow.
How a partnership build works
You bring the problem your industry keeps running into and the know-how to solve it.
We map who it is for, what it has to do on day one, and how it will be sold.
The app, the landing pages, pricing and checkout, built and tested.
We put it in front of your industry and improve it with real customers.
Tell me the problem your industry keeps running into and what you would bring to it. If it fits, we build it together.

AI Learning
Two cohorts, taught step by step. The first builds your app. The second builds the system behind it. No coding background needed — you leave each one with work you have actually done.
Step by step, in person or on Zoom · 12 weeks · 2 hours a session
What AI can actually do for a business your size, and what it can't. No jargon, no hype.
The whole build, laid out in order: plan, design, build, test, launch. You'll always know what happens next.
Run it inside your own business to save yourself the work, or publish it on Google Play and the App Store and charge for it. We cover what changes between the two.
Not a folder of notes. Your own idea, built far enough to show someone.
Step by step, in person or on Zoom · 8 weeks · 2 hours a session
Where customer accounts, data, and notifications live. The part nobody sees and nothing works without.
Change prices, content, and settings yourself — without paying a developer or waiting on app store review.
Subscriptions and billing handled properly, and knowing the moment somebody signs up, renews, or cancels.
Who can touch what, how customer data stays protected, and keeping card numbers out of your systems entirely.
Next cohort
Both cohorts run in small groups so everyone gets time. Leave your name and I'll email you when dates are set — seats, times, and price, before it goes public.
Open to individuals and business owners alike. You don't need a company, a team, or a technical background to take either one.
No newsletter, no drip campaign. One email when the dates are set.
Or email info@acrossthetable.biz directly.
Your email app should have opened with everything filled in.
Nothing opened? Copy this and email it to info@acrossthetable.biz — that puts you on the list just the same.
Why it exists
“Make complex business ideas easier to understand, easier to apply, and easier to act on.”
If a term needs a glossary, it gets explained the first time. No jargon used to sound smart.
Every tool here came out of a real problem in a real business, not a feature roadmap.
The pieces connect, but none of them require the others. Take the one you need this month.
Work together
The apps and the classes do a lot on their own. Some things still need a conversation.
Your business, your numbers, your actual problem. We sit down with what you've got and figure out the next right move.
You know your subject. I turn it into a class people finish — the outline, the deck, the workbook, and the funnel that fills the room.
If your industry doesn't have a tool that fits, it gets built. SOS Apps and TableTap started that way, as partnership builds with people who knew their industry. See the partnership builds

Owner development · Across the Table
A proven framework that helps business owners shift their thinking, make grand-scale decisions, and build a business that creates lasting impact and legacy.
Take a look
Who it's for
For owners who've realised the business can't grow past the way they currently think about it.
The business needs you in it all day, and that's the ceiling.
You have people now, and leading them is a different skill than doing the work.
You want decisions today that still make sense in five years.
You want something that outlives your involvement in it.
Why it helps
Make bold, high-impact decisions that position your business for long-term success.
Develop a clear vision and lead your team with focus, alignment, and conviction.
Create systems, processes, and strategies that fuel consistent, scalable growth.

So the standard holds when you're not in the room.

No MBA, no finance background, no jargon assumed.
What you get
The shift from doing every job to running the business.
Next step

Field service · Across the Table
A mobile-first app for home and property service professionals. It runs the whole job — quote, photos, invoice, payment — from your phone, on site.
Take a look
Who it's for
Independent service professionals and small crews who do the work themselves and bill for it themselves.
Quote the walkthrough, show the after, get paid before you leave.
Before-and-after photos do the selling for the next job.
Professional quotes on site instead of a callback that evening.
Invoice from the truck rather than at the kitchen table on Sunday.
One place for the quote, the job, and the payment.
Why it helps
One app instead of a notebook, a photo roll, and a separate invoice tool.
Quotes, invoices, and follow-ups stop being evening paperwork.
Branded documents and before-and-after photos build customer trust.
Integrated payments mean the money moves when the job ends.
What's inside
Create professional quotes quickly using templates or custom line items.
Capture, organize, and showcase the work you actually did.
Generate branded invoices in seconds and send them straight to the customer.

Create, send, and get paid in minutes rather than days.
Offline mode for quotes and photos, so a bad basement doesn't stop the job.

Financial literacy · Across the Table
Make smarter decisions with clarity and confidence. Cash flow and EBITDA answer different questions — this shows you which one to ask, and when.
Take a look
Who it's for
Owners who've been handed both numbers and were never told what the difference means for a decision they have to make on Monday.
You see both figures on a report and want to know which one to trust for what.
They'll ask about EBITDA. You need to know why.
Profitable on paper and short at the bank is a specific, fixable problem.
Nobody explained this, and asking felt like admitting something.
Why it matters
Compare cash flow and EBITDA side by side to understand your business completely.
Use real insights to plan, budget, invest, and grow with confidence.
Stay ahead of cash shortages and identify opportunities early.
Stronger clarity leads to stronger strategies and bigger results.
The comparison
This is the whole idea, on one screen. Both numbers are honest — they just answer different things.
Shows the actual cash moving in and out of your business.
Measures your overall business performance before non-cash items.
What's inside
Both views of the same business, on one screen, so the difference is obvious.
Clear reporting rather than a spreadsheet you have to interpret.
Up-to-date data when you need it, not at month end.
Export reports and share them with your team, your accountant, or your bank.

Simple dashboards and clear reporting do the reading for you.
Your data is protected with enterprise-grade security.

Hospitality · Across the Table
A smart tag sits on every table. A diner taps their phone or scans the code and your menu opens instantly — no app to download, no waiting. Everything that happens next, from the review to the VIP sign-up to the return visit, comes back to you.
Guide (PDF): Features and Functionality
Take a look
Who it's for
Restaurants that want the convenience diners now expect, without printing a new menu every time a price changes.
You are on the floor most nights and have no one to hand technology to.
Diners see the menu and tonight’s specials the moment they sit down, so your staff can focus on service.
Change a price or a special once and every table has it.
One dashboard across every room, with each location's numbers separated.
Why it helps
A tap or a scan opens the menu on any phone. No app, no account, no friction at the table.
Diners join your VIP list right at the table and earn rewards, so a good meal turns into a return visit.
Update a price, an item, or tonight's special once. Every table is right immediately.
Rewards, offers, and a VIP list turn a one-time visit into a regular.
Which tables engaged, which offers landed, which customers returned — and what it earned.
What you get
Tap with a phone or scan the code — both work, on any device.
Categories, photos, and prices, opening in about a second.
Your name, your look, with specials, reviews, and social links in one place.
Diners leave a review while the meal is fresh, and you see it on your dashboard.
Points, deals, and a VIP list that give people a reason to return.
Catch a problem at the table instead of reading about it online.
Taps, new customers, rewards redeemed, and engagement over time.
On TableTap Pro, campaigns, offers and promotions go out from your dashboard.
The three plans
Each plan includes everything in the one before it. Every restaurant starts with Essential. After we meet, you choose the plan that fits and I send you the link for it. You can move up later without replacing the tags.
Digital menu · Tap. View. Dine.
You get
Smart customer experience · Connect. Communicate. Engage.
Everything in Essential, plus
Complete smart table platform · Engage. Measure. Grow.
Everything in Engage, plus
Not sure which one fits? That’s what the meeting is for. Tell me your table count and what you want to happen after someone eats, and I’ll tell you which plan does that — including if it’s Essential.
Easy to use
The whole point is that a diner does nothing they haven't done before. Here's what it actually feels like on both sides of the table.
Newer phones tap. Everything else scans the code. Both land in the same place.
The menu opens straight away. Joining the rewards list is optional.
Change it once from your phone. No reprinting, no waiting on a designer.
Tags arrive ready. Place one per table and you're running.
How it works
Only Essential is sold on my Stan Store. Engage and Pro are set up for your restaurant after we talk, so you never pay for a plan you don’t need.
Next step
Start with Essential and we’ll meet. Tell me how many tables you have and what you want to happen after someone eats, then you choose your plan. That's a short conversation, not a sales call.
Sign industry · The complete system · Coming soon
SOS Design Assistant, SOS Permit Assistant and SOS Build Assistant, together in one login, sharing one job record from start to finish.
Take a look
Who it’s for
Sign companies that want to run every job, from the customer’s first idea to the final inspection, in one place instead of five programs, three spreadsheets and a group text.
You want the whole picture of every job without asking three people.
You hand off an approved drawing once, and it follows the job.
You see the design, the permit and the install date on the same record.
The problem
Today a sign job passes through several sets of hands: the design files, the permit paperwork, the manufacturer quotes and the install schedule. Every handoff means re-typing details, hunting for the latest drawing, and hoping nothing slipped. When the customer calls, nobody has the whole picture.
What you get together
The design, permit, bids, build and close-out all live on the same job. Nothing gets re-entered.
The version the customer approves in Design is the one that goes into the permit packet and out to manufacturers for bids.
Your customer follows design approval, permit status and install date on a single branded status page.
Sales, design, permits and installers see where every job stands and what’s next.
The final inspection, permit card, install photos and job costing are filed together when the job is done.
Every company you manage gets all three parts, with its own branding and team.
Pricing
Current SOS Permit Assistant members get first access. Start on SOS Permit Assistant today and you’ll be among the first bundle customers when Design and Build launch.
How it fits together
SOS Design Assistant creates the sign, the proof and the vector files.
SOS Permit Assistant gets it approved by the city. Available now.
SOS Build Assistant gets bids, runs production and install, and closes out the job.
Next step
Join the waitlist and you’ll hear the day it opens. Questions in the meantime? Ask me directly — you’ll get me, not a queue.
Sign industry · SOSIGN · Coming soon
Create sign designs and the vector files your fabricator needs, without bouncing between programs.
Take a look
Who it’s for
Sign salespeople, designers and small shops that need to turn a customer’s idea into a clean proof and production files fast.
You need a proof in front of the customer while they’re still excited.
You want revisions and vector files in one place, not ten email threads.
You do the design, the sale and the paperwork yourself.
The problem
Customer proofs, revisions and vector files live in different tools and email threads. The version the customer approved isn’t always the one that gets built.
What it will do
Create sign designs and proofs for customer review.
Produce vector files ready for fabrication.
The approved version is always clear.
Hand the approved drawing straight to SOS Permit Assistant for the permit packet.
How it fits together
SOS Design Assistant creates the sign, the proof and the vector files.

Sign industry · SOSIGN · Available now
Submit. Track. Get approved. SOS Permit Assistant keeps applications, signatures, customer updates, inspections and expiration dates in one place, so you get fewer corrections, fewer status calls, and no missed expirations.
Take a look
Who it’s for
Sign companies and their permit coordinators, project managers and owners, including people running permits for several sign companies.
You want every permit moving without being the one who chases it.
You juggle city portals, packets and inspections for every open job.
You need to know where a permit stands before the customer asks.
You run permits for several sign companies and need each one kept separate.
The problem
Teams chase city portals, field customer “where’s my permit?” calls, redo applications after corrections, chase landlords for signatures, and lose track of inspections and expiration dates.
Check city sign-size limits and required documents before you submit.
Give customers a branded status page with progress updates and drawing approvals.
Get advance warnings and draft extension-request letters in one click.
What it does
Catches size-limit and missing-document problems before the city does.
A cover sheet with everything cities ask for, the city’s form filled in, and drawings and documents in one PDF.
Send the authorization and get it back signed.
Customers check progress themselves and approve drawings in one tap.
Branded emails and texts to customers, alerts to your team, and a morning summary.
Photos, GPS and measurements, even with no signal.
Sign-code answers from your saved city codes, with the section cited.
Schedule, record pass or fail, photograph the permit card, close the job.
Google and Outlook calendars, QuickBooks invoices and job costing, and jobs imported from shopVOX, Corebridge, Excel or Zapier.
Each company keeps its own branding, team and reports.
Savings calculator
Move the sliders to match your shop. Every number is yours to change. The starting points are on the careful side.
Time saved per area: customer status updates 80%, city email and portal checks 60%, landlord sign-off 60%, inspection and close-out paperwork 50%, expired permits 90%, and 25% of correction rounds prevented by the ready-to-submit check. Plan cost uses the monthly sale price for the number of companies you choose. These are estimates, not a guarantee.
2–10 companies
Each company keeps its own branding, team, permits and reports, all through one login. Only the one-company plans are available for immediate purchase; 2–10 companies are set up after a short call. The row for the number of companies you pick in the calculator is highlighted.

Sign industry · SOSIGN · Coming soon
Send the approved sign to manufacturers for bids, then run the job on one board through install and close-out.
Take a look
Who it’s for
Sign companies that use outside manufacturers or fabricators, and project managers who run installs.
You send drawings out for bids instead of building in-house.
You run production, delivery and install crews across many jobs.
You need close-out paperwork filed the day the sign goes up.
The problem
Getting bids means emailing drawings to several shops and comparing quotes by hand. Once the job is awarded, production, delivery, install crews and close-out paperwork get tracked in spreadsheets and texts.
What it will do
Send the approved drawing and specs to manufacturers for bids.
Compare bids side by side and award the job.
Run each job from production and delivery through install and close-out.
Pick up the permit, inspections and close-out from SOS Permit Assistant, so the whole job lives in one record.
How it fits together
SOS Design Assistant creates the sign, the proof and the vector files.
SOS Permit Assistant gets it approved by the city. Available now.
SOS Build Assistant gets bids, runs production and install, and closes out the job.

Learn · Across the Table
Build • Launch • Scale
Understand what to focus on, when to focus on it, and why it matters. Not everything at once — the journey broken into stages, each one building on the one before it.
Why the workbooks matter
“I’ve sat across from business owners who spent 3 to 5 years building something they believed in, only to walk into a bank ready to grow — and be told they weren’t ready. Not because they didn’t care or didn’t try, but because they didn’t have the structure or strategy in place.”
Each stage builds on the one before it. You deal with each decision when it matters — not after it has become expensive to fix.
You answer every page about your own business. When you finish, you have something real to hand a banker, a partner or your first hire.
Every workbook ends in something you can act on: a go or no-go, a checklist, a tool to take into your next meeting.
Written from real businesses and real systems, in words you’d use across the table — not a textbook, and no jargon.
How to use them
The five stages
The Entrepreneur Mindset Series is a practical, step-by-step business development system designed to help entrepreneurs move from idea to execution, execution to operation, and operation to growth.
Start with clarity before you invest.
This is where the journey begins. You identify a problem, explore the solutions, define who you want to serve, and decide why the business should exist at all — before a dollar goes out the door.
FreeThe order of operations. What comes first, what can wait, and what you’re not ready for yet.
Fillable, section by section, ending in a straight go or no-go on the idea you’re carrying around.
The questions a good advisor would ask you, written down so you can’t dodge them.
Turn the idea into a real business.
The foundation you need to launch legally, financially, and operationally. You move from concept to structure — defining the business, completing the setup, and putting in the systems that let you run it like a professional instead of improvising.
Structure, name, entity, and the decisions that are expensive to change later.
FreeThe full setup checklist, one step at a time, so nothing gets missed and nothing gets done twice.
How the business actually runs day to day — the routines, records, and handoffs that keep it from living in your head.
Learn to think and operate like a CEO.
This is the shift from working in the business to thinking strategically about it. Executive thinking, decision-making, leadership, accountability, and long-term vision — how to evaluate an opportunity, solve a problem, communicate at an executive level, and build something that runs beyond your own two hands.
The stages of executive thinking, and how to tell which one you’re operating in right now.
The workbook version of the shift — worked through module by module, with your own business in the answers.
Learn how to lead the room. Fifteen chapters on preparing for and running executive meetings, each with a ready-to-use tool, so a meeting turns into decisions, owners and results.
Run the business one meeting at a time: the monthly review, quarterly strategy, annual planning, financial review and emergency decision meetings — each with its own question and final output.
Turn the business concept into something real.
Where planning, structuring, and creating come together. You develop the product or service, settle the business model, make the calls on pricing and branding, and decide how the business delivers value to a customer.
How to think about strategy before you write one — the trade-offs, the constraints, the honest look at what you’re competing on.
The plan itself. Model, pricing, positioning, and delivery, written down where you can hold yourself to it.
Expand what works and build for the future.
Increasing revenue, attracting and keeping customers, strengthening operations, improving the systems, and finding where the next opportunity is. This is where you start making real decisions about scaling, hiring, new products, new markets, and long-term sustainability.
Attracting and keeping customers, strengthening what already works, and deciding where the next opportunity actually is.
The difference between profit on paper and money in the account — and why a growing business can run out of cash.

Version 1.2 · Draft pending legal review
Plain language, because that's the whole point of this business. If something here isn't clear, ask and it gets rewritten.
Each product is sold either as a subscription, a one-time purchase, or a program with a defined start and end. The plan you chose at checkout, and its price, is what governs your purchase.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the interval you chose until you cancel. Cancelling stops future billing at the end of the period you've already paid for — it does not end your access early, and it does not delete your account.
Where a trial is offered, you aren't charged until it ends. Cancel before the last day of the trial and you're not billed at all.
On your first purchase, if it isn't right for you, ask within 30 days and you get your money back. One per customer.
If you buy an app through the Play Store, Google handles the billing and the subscription lives in your Play account under Google's terms. Cancellation and refunds for those purchases go through Google.
One Across the Table account covers every app, course, and program you buy. You're responsible for keeping your sign-in details secure.
You own what you put in. You can request a copy or ask for deletion at any time from Privacy & data in your Hub. Some records are kept where law, accounting, or contract requires it — the retention schedule explains which.
Card details are handled by Stripe and never stored on Across the Table servers.
If these terms change materially, you'll be told before the change takes effect on your account.
