Meet Mike
Hi I'm Mike Crawford. I'm a consulting integrator and the founder of Invent Results. I have over 35 years of collective experience in business including operational excellence, engineering, quality assurance, purchasing, customer service, and executive management. My experience is vast and common in that I have always thrived on the integration and execution of visionary goals.
Invent Results is the name I used to define my passion. In the simplest of terms, I help people. I help businesses and entrepreneurs get organized at every level of their business so that they can have the best opportunity to achieve success. No, I don't guarantee success. I can't. Even if I could, I wouldn't. If you want guaranteed success, aim for failure, do nothing and enjoy.
After a three decade career in manufacturing, operations, sales and business management, I decided to move toward my passion and haven’t looked back since.
That’s what I want for you. I want you to realize your passion in the shortest possible time with the best use of your talents. I want you to live your best life. Visualize what you want and ask me how to get there. I have the experience, tenacity and skills necessary to guide you out of the weeds and back into the place that brings you the best opportunity for success.
"Helping people is the greatest thing on earth!" ~ MC
"Working with Invent Results on my startup has given me a feeling that I'm not doing it alone. Mike has helped me navigate complex parts of starting my LLC and registering as woman owned business. He has also helped me with my pricing models and marketing strategy. I feel like Invent Results is a partner not just a consulting firm."
