Helping Small Business Owners Scale

With clarity, growth, and guidance from someone who’s actually lived it.

No Bullsh*t

I’ll shoot it straight. Because the last thing you have time for is bad advice from people who've never built anything real.

Perspective

I'm not just a coach, I’m a player-coach sharing my experiences while actively building businesses.

SMBs

I’ve helped hundreds of small to medium-sized businesses gain clarity and understand their next right move.

You’re Not Stuck.

You Need a Proven Framework.

You set out to build something meaningful, whether it’s a product, a service, or finally turning your most persistent vision into reality. But, you probably didn’t expect to spend so much time juggling strategy, operations, growth, and everything in between. I get it, no one feels the weight quite like we do. 


In the last few years, I’ve seen the same problem: founders running on fumes, unsure of what is holding them back. Desperate for clarity and mentorship from someone who understands entrepreneurship and has the experience to help you build something that lasts.

Too often, the loudest voices are filled with empty buzzwords, shallow advice, and gurus who’ve never built anything real. You don’t need more empty inspiration. You need someone who understands the call to build something real and can help you do it.

You Beat the Odds

Now Let's Beat Them Again by Scaling.

You’re the one they look to for answers. But who do you go to? The late nights, tough decisions, and carrying the full weight of the organization on your shoulders is isolating.


The reality is, nobody in your life will understand. Not your employees, your family, or friends. The burden that comes with building a business, is bigger than most can imagine.


The truth is…the odds are stacked against us. Statistically,

1/10

people in the U.S. will start a business.

25%

of those businesses shut down in the first year.

62%

are gone by year five.

2.5%

make it to see year 10.

I Won’t Hand You the Motivation.

But I Can Help You Beat the Odds.

After two decades of being an entrepreneur, I've seen what it takes to build a business that lasts. I’ve developed a formula based on my experiences and proven frameworks. It's time to clarify where your business needs attention, so you can make it to the 10-year mark (and beyond). 


Whether you're looking for a keynote speaker, one-on-one coaching, or a workshop facilitator, let me help you cut through the noise!

I was in a pinch with some deadlines and needed clarity fast. I trusted Chase and knew they could deliver. Working with him was great. He was clear in communication, had high energy, and cared about us winning. While there are always things I can’t control in our company, I am confident, after working with Chase that our company is on a clear path to growth.

Launching a new business is no small task, and we needed someone who could guide us through branding with clarity, creativity, and care. Chase came highly recommended, and he delivered on every front. From day one, he listened closely, understood our mission, and helped shape a compelling narrative that truly reflects who we are. He never pushed a one-size-fits-all solution — instead, he partnered with us, offering thoughtful guidance and real collaboration. We’re proud of our name, messaging, and presence, and we feel confident entering the market knowing we have Chase as a trusted partner.

"I worked with Chase to gain clarity for our startup. We had amazing conversations, and the resources he provided were incredibly helpful. After working with him, we found a clear consistent vision for communication for customers. He worked hard to understand our problems and worked with us to get us best suited to poise us for success. I would 100 percent work with him again."

After reading StoryBrand, I wanted a partner who truly understood the framework — that’s when a co-worker introduced me to Chase. Our bank was struggling to define itself and communicate clearly. Chase and his team came in at the right time with the right approach. They listened well, drew out what mattered, and turned it into messaging that made sense. What stood out was their respect for our voice — they felt like an extension of our team. We now have a clear roadmap and a partner we trust. Chase’s guidance (and friendship) reminded me that marketing should be fun.

"I was looking for a true partner to help clarify Podium’s brand vision and bring it to life. We lacked focus and accountability, but Chase and the Bolt team brought structure, energy, and a collaborative spirit that made all the difference. I chose them for their StoryBrand expertise — and Chase’s sparkling personality didn’t hurt. What set them apart was their full-service approach and willingness to keep refining until it was right. The experience was productive and energizing. Now I feel confident reaching out to investors and customers, armed with tools that actually reflect who we are."

"What do you do when you basically haven't done marketing for a decade? You call Bolt. Chase and team swooped in and took us from 0 to 1 across the stack: social, email newsletter, blog posts, case studies, sales decks, SEO, website homepage copy & design, video production, messaging, sales strategy, and more.


Bolt Marketing helped us build upon our solid foundation of happy clients and word-of-mouth referrals to unlock our ability to pursue growth opportunities for our business. Would definitely recommend."

"As Stable Recovery continues to achieve incredible successes in helping men in their addiction recovery and finding purposeful jobs, we needed help with our marketing and branding as our reputation and outreach continued to grow on a daily basis. Fortunately, we met Chase Fairchild and his team at Bolt Marketing. Chase and his team have taken a very personal approach to understanding who we are and what we do. In doing so, they have elevated our messaging and website to reflect our mission in compelling ways for all of our stakeholders. We truly consider them as one of our strategic partners in every way."

"Chase was incredibly helpful when we were just starting out as a new company. He gave us valuable insights on how to improve our website and helped us narrow down our target market and ideal customers. His tips on messaging and engagement really helped us connect better with our audience and increase our conversions. We’re grateful for his guidance and highly recommend his coaching services."

"My one-on-one coaching with Chase was exactly what I needed to sharpen our messaging, build a strategic marketing plan, and rework our website with real clarity. He brought structure, insight, and a deep understanding of how to position our business for long-term growth.

Every session was productive, focused, and energizing. If you're looking for a coach who gets both strategy and execution - and can help you move forward with confidence - Chase delivers."

"Before working with Chase, our brands were strong, but our marketing approach hadn't fully caught up with the times. We needed to modernize, streamline, and think differently about how we were growing. I chose to work with Chase because he's not just an idea guy, but a hands-on leader with actual experience. He's been in the trenches of his own businesses and used his knowledge to guide our team, asking the right questions and helping us see opportunities we hadn't considered. Chase is also a resourceful connector, bringing in the right people at the right time. The process is collaborative, fast-moving, and energizing. What stood out was his team's ability to blend coaching with execution, helping us build brands, design products, and put a clear, modern marketing strategy in place. As a result, we've strengthened our existing brands, launched new ones, and developed a marketing approach that's more efficient and impactful. As a result, I am more focused, prepared, and better equipped to lead our business into its next chapter."

"Being a Founder & Owner is challenging and can feel isolating at times. Often thinking “am I the only one going through this?” Having Chase as a sounding board and fellow Founder & Owner who “gets it” has been super helpful. He’s been through it, not in theory like most coaches but in person. He’s built a 7 figure business and knows what it takes to succede. He knows what the cost on you is Physically and Emotionally, also the toll on it takes on relationships. Everything you’re going through right now, he’s already done that and will be a great guiding light through the challenges of business ownership."
