About Downtown Up
A local partner for the work of growing a small business.
Downtown Up is a Montpelier-based consulting and coaching practice focused on helping small businesses, entrepreneurs, and local organizations strengthen their strategy, operations, systems, and decision-making.

- Strategy that fits your business, not a template
- Practical tools and resources you'll actually use
- A steady partner to keep you focused and accountable
- Locally rooted in Montpelier and central Vermont
