I’m Rob, founder of Map Stack.
I’ve been building and running service-based businesses from an early age. My first venture was a small telemarketing business — and it failed. That experience taught me early lessons about sales, positioning, cash flow, and what actually drives growth in local service businesses.
From there, I built a long-term career in fitness and coaching, where I went on to successfully run and grow a personal training business. Over the years, I’ve worked not just as a trainer, but also in gym sales, operations, staff training, and development. I’ve managed teams, built client acquisition systems, and worked closely with local, boutique, and service-based businesses where margins matter and lead quality is critical.
That background gives me a practical understanding of how small and local businesses actually operate — the constraints they face, the importance of consistent leads, and the need for marketing that supports revenue, not just visibility.
Today, I bring that same operator mindset to growth and marketing. I partner with business owners who care about building something sustainable and want a clear, honest approach to acquiring customers. I don’t believe in shortcuts or generic strategies. I focus on building systems that fit the business, the market, and the stage of growth.
If you’re looking for someone who understands service-based businesses from the inside — and wants to work alongside you as a partner, not just a vendor — that’s how I approach every engagement.
