I’m just Q: What is The Durant’s Consulting Firm?

A: The Durant’s Consulting Firm is a strategic business development and oversight corporation based in Galveston, Texas. We specialize in corporate structuring, operational management for subsidiary entities, and acquisition strategies for the Short-Term Rental (STR) and vacation rental markets.

Q: Where are you located?

A: Our headquarters are located in Galveston County, Texas. While we are deeply rooted in the Gulf Coast region, we are equipped to consult with clients and manage assets beyond our immediate area.

Q: Who is your typical client?

A: We work with entrepreneurs, small business owners, and investors who are looking to:

• Formalize and restructure their business entities (such as C-Corps or LLCs).

• Develop comprehensive business plans and pitch decks for funding.

• Expand into the real estate and Airbnb/STR market.

• Streamline operations for service-based businesses (like cleaning services).

Services & Expertise

Q: What specific consulting services do you offer?

A: Our core services include:

• Strategic Oversight: Acting as a holding or parent company to oversee operations, payroll, and compliance for operating entities.

• Business Development: Creating pitch decks, grant proposals, and business plans to secure funding.

• STR Acquisition: Advising on the identification, purchase, and management of vacation rental properties using platforms like Airbnb.

Q: Do you help with business formation?

A: Yes. We guide clients through the complexities of corporate formation, including understanding the benefits of C-Corporations versus LLCs, structuring bylaws, and ensuring compliance with Texas state regulations.

Q: Can you help my service business grow?

A: Absolutely. Drawing from our experience with operational logistics—such as structuring payroll, defining service areas, and marketing—we help service providers scale their operations efficiently.

Working With Us

Q: How do I get started with The Durant’s Consulting Firm?

A: The first step is to schedule an initial consultation. During this meeting, we will discuss your current business structure, your goals (such as acquisition or expansion), and how our firm can facilitate that growth.

Q: Do you offer long-term management or one-time consulting?

A: We offer both. We can provide a one-time service to build a specific deliverable (like a Pitch Deck or Business Plan), or we can enter a long-term agreement for ongoing strategic oversight and business management.

Q: How are your fees structured?

A: Our fees vary based on the scope of the project. We offer project-based fees for documents (e.g., creating a Business Plan) and retainer-based models for ongoing consulting and oversight. Please contact us for a personalized quote.
