At The Acceleration Project, we believe that expertise should be accessible to every small business owner — regardless of their zip code, background, or budget.

That belief comes to life through our volunteer consultants. They are senior executives, finance professionals, marketing strategists, and operations experts who donate their time and knowledge to help under-resourced entrepreneurs build stronger businesses — completely free of charge.

But rather than tell you about them, we'd rather let them speak for themselves.

Watch the video below to hear directly from TAP consultants about why they volunteer, what drives them, and what they've learned from working with small business owners across the country. There are so many reasons our consultants love working with small businesses. But it's best if we let them tell you, in their own words. Check out the video below.

TAP's volunteer consultant network includes over 200 vetted, trained, and active professionals from 22 states and 2 countries, fluent in 25 languages, and specialists in marketing, finance, strategy, and operations.

Thirty-eight percent have been small business owners themselves. Sixty-nine percent work full or part-time roles in their field. Every one of them brings real-world expertise that small business owners would otherwise have to pay thousands of dollars to access. If you are an experienced professional in finance, marketing, operations, strategy, or any business discipline, TAP would love to have you on the team. Volunteering with TAP is flexible, rewarding, and directly tied to real outcomes for real people. Learn More and Apply to Become a TAP Volunteer Consultant For more questions visit our FAQ page here.
