Kevin StJohn is the founder of Boomin Business Solutions, a business coaching and consulting practice. His own site lists Sarasota, Florida as his base, though other public listings, including his Facebook page and an Alignable profile, place the business in Ellenton, Florida. His work centers on strategic planning, operational efficiency, financial management, and leadership development for small and mid-size businesses, and it also extends into a specialized coaching program built specifically for trades and local service business owners.

He built a business, made the mistakes, and now helps other owners skip them. Kevin StJohn runs Boomin Business Solutions as both a general business consulting practice and, on a separate part of his site, a trades-specific coaching program.

StJohn's own framing of his path into coaching is direct: "I've actually sat where you're sitting, the stress, the cash flow headaches, the feeling like you're the only thing holding it all together." That framing, coach as someone who's lived the exact problem rather than studied it from the outside, runs through both sides of his practice. His site opens with a tagline that captures the same idea in five words: "Built a Business. Made the Mistakes." The pitch that follows is that clients get to skip the mistakes rather than repeat them.
That positioning has earned him some visibility beyond his own client base. Boomin Business Solutions' site lists media appearances on two Sarasota-area radio stations, AM860 The Answer and 1025 The Bone, alongside the coaching and consulting work itself. It's a modest form of local recognition, but it suggests a practice that's been around long enough, and public-facing enough, to get invited onto local programming rather than operating purely through word of mouth.
General business consulting
Boomin Business Solutions' primary offering covers four core service areas: strategic planning and development, operational efficiency improvement, financial management and analysis, and leadership and team development. Under strategic planning, StJohn works with clients on market analysis, goal setting, action plans, and competitive assessment. Operational efficiency work covers process optimization, cost reduction, resource allocation, and workflow enhancement. Financial management includes forecasting, budget planning, cash flow management, and investment strategy, and leadership development covers executive coaching, team building, communication skills, and conflict resolution.
That's a broad footprint for a single-consultant practice, spanning strategy, operations, finance, and people leadership rather than specializing narrowly in one lane. StJohn describes his own background as one built on discipline, accountability, and performing under pressure, qualities he says he brings to every client relationship regardless of which of the four service areas a given engagement touches.
Each of the four service areas is offered as its own standalone engagement, meaning a client doesn't have to sign up for a full overhaul of their business just to get help with one specific problem. A business owner who only needs help untangling a cash flow issue can book time under financial management without also committing to a leadership development track, and vice versa. That modularity is a meaningful contrast to the trades-specific program, which is structured as a single, all-in 12-week commitment rather than a menu of standalone services.
The entry point into any of it is the same regardless of which service a prospective client is interested in: a free, no-pressure strategy call, positioned explicitly as having no obligation attached. That kind of low-commitment first step is common in the consulting world, but StJohn's site leans into it heavily, framing the free call three separate ways across the page, no obligation, expert advice from day one, and a custom strategy built around the specific business rather than a generic template. For an owner who's never worked with a consultant before and isn't sure what to expect, that repeated emphasis on low commitment is likely a deliberate attempt to lower the barrier to that first conversation.
A separate, trades-specific coaching offer
Alongside the general consulting practice, StJohn also runs a distinct coaching program aimed specifically at trades and local service businesses, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and roofing companies among them, hosted on a separate site under his own name. That program, the BOOMIN Business Transformation Program, runs for 12 weeks and is built around fixing underpricing, reducing operational chaos, and creating predictable cash flow, problems that show up constantly in trades businesses where owners are often skilled tradespeople first and business operators second.
That program's marketing also includes a specific, attention-getting claim not found on his main consulting site: identifying a minimum of $75,000 to $100,000 in additional revenue inside a business in under 45 minutes, using pricing, financial, and operational analysis rather than added marketing spend. It's a bold, falsifiable promise, the kind of number a prospective client could actually hold him to, but it sits on a separate page from his primary consulting business, which raises a real question about how current or active that specific program is relative to his main practice.
The distinction matters for anyone considering working with StJohn. A trades business owner drawn in by the specific pricing and systems focus of the 12-week program is looking for something different than a broader small business owner interested in leadership development or financial forecasting through the main consulting site. Whether these represent two active, parallel offers, or one is a legacy version of the business that hasn't been fully retired, isn't something I could determine from the public-facing material alone. Either way, a prospective client reaching out to Boomin Business Solutions should have a clear sense going in of which version of the practice they're actually engaging with, general strategy and operations, or a trades-specific pricing and systems overhaul, since the two are pitched quite differently even if they trace back to the same person.
What the community says
Kevin has built named client relationships across more than one type of business, which is worth noting given how much coaching marketing leans on anonymous or paraphrased praise. Chris Dalrymple of Pitch One Services LLC described Kevin as "the most professional, hardworking business coach out there." Earl Schlenker, a business owner, called him "a top-tier business coach." And Sarah Mitchell, a tech startup founder, credited his insight with having "helped us scale from a small startup to a thriving enterprise."
That mix, a services company, an unnamed business owner, and a tech startup founder, spans a wider range of business types than the trades-specific program alone would suggest, which supports the idea that the general consulting practice and the trades program may be genuinely separate client bases rather than one being an outdated leftover of the other.
