π OAKLAND β BUSINESS CONSULTING | Launch Fast. Scale Clean.
Oakland entrepreneurs β stop spinning your wheels. I help founders and small businesses get their infrastructure, systems, and go-to-market running in hours to days (not months).
Iβm a momentum builder with 40 years of startup experience, and I served as CEO of LegacyATM.com for 19 years, growing that company into a national placement network. I know the Bay Area market and can help you with fast, practical setup and scaling.
Local focus β Oakland & Bay Area:
Iβm the namesake of my great-grandfather, Daniel Read, an Oakland banker and 1906 earthquake survivor who spent his later years around Lake Merritt. I know Oaklandβs neighborhoods, local regulations, and community rhythms β and I use that knowledge to build businesses that last here.
Services I provide:

β’ CRM & automation for lead flow and sales ops
β’ Hiring, payroll setup, and service delivery systems
