Katy Cash, Founder & CEO of Juniper Homes:
“I cannot recommend InnoFig highly enough! I hired Karen to help refine multiple aspects of my construction company, and her advice has been truly invaluable. She tackled a wide range of projects—from revamping our org chart, incentive plans and employee scorecards to developing SOPs with the goal of making our business more efficient and improving communication, both internally and with clients.

She doesn't simply suggest improvements—she delivers thoughtful, strategic solutions that actually work. Thanks to her expertise, we’ve already seen noticeable improvements in our processes and team dynamics.
Beyond her skillset, working with her is genuinely an enjoyable experience.
