The Real Risks
When You’re Close to the Situation, Clarity Gets Harder
Business owners, leaders, and professionals usually don’t struggle because they aren’t working hard enough. More often, they’re too close to the situation—managing today’s demands while trying to make decisions about tomorrow.
The Day-to-Day Takes Over
Urgent issues crowd out the important ones.
Growth Creates Complexity
What worked yesterday may not be what gets you where you want to go next.
The Answer Isn’t Always Obvious
Sometimes the biggest opportunity is seeing the situation differently.

Common Questions
Answers Before You Call
How is HuntJack different from a management consulting firm?
With a consulting firm, you meet the partner and get handed to a junior analyst. With HuntJack, you always work directly with Tom Sheffield — 30+ years of real corporate leadership, state to global. There's no delegation. No junior team. No standardized playbook. Just Tom, applying 30 years of experience to your specific situation.
What types of businesses does Tom work with?
Tom works with small to medium-sized businesses across the USA, as well as executives and aspiring franchise owners at any stage. Industries vary widely — his approach is rooted in leadership and organizational principles that transfer across verticals. If you're unsure whether your situation is a fit, the free discovery call is the right place to find out.
How does franchise coaching work if Tom doesn't earn a commission?
Most franchise "coaches" or "brokers" earn a referral fee from the franchisor — meaning they're incentivized to place you in a franchise, not necessarily the right one. Tom's coaching is compensated differently, which means his only goal is to educate you thoroughly so you can make the decision that's right for your goals, budget, and lifestyle. If you ultimately decide franchise ownership isn't for you — that's a win, not a loss.
What does executive coaching look like in practice?
Tom's executive and leadership coaching is one-on-one and built around your specific goals, strengths, and gaps. Sessions focus on education — building your strategic thinking, communication, and leadership decision-making — combined with real accountability between sessions. Tom brings corporate leadership experience at the state, national, and global levels to every conversation.
Is Tom available to clients outside of Tampa, FL?
Yes. HuntJack Consulting serves clients across the USA. Tom works with clients via phone and video consultation, and his Tampa location is his base — not his boundary. If you're searching for a business consultant near me or management consulting services nationally, Tom is available for remote engagements.
How quickly can I get started? Do you offer same-day appointments?
Tom offers introductory conversations with same-day availability when his schedule allows. To get started, simply call (813) 404-2000 or use the contact form to start a conversation. There's no cost, no commitment, and most clients find significant clarity just from that first conversation.
