Guiding Dreams,
Inspiring Change,
building a Legacy
In 2010, Melanie founded Guided Business Plan, a
company built on her dream of empowering others
through entrepreneurship education. She was not just
building a business; she was creating a legacy of
economic independence, showing others how to
navigate the journey she had taken herself. Through
Guided Business Plan, Melanie authored ten books,
each one crafted to provide entrepreneurs with a clear
path—from launching a business to scaling it to
becoming a government supplier. Her work touched
lives across the country, a testament to her
commitment to creating opportunities for others.
Her passion didn’t stop there. In 2023, Melanie
launched NonSolos, Inc. (dba Plan with Peers) and
Voices of ESG Supplier Diversity + Inclusion, two new
initiatives that embodied her dedication to diversity,
equity, and collaboration in the business world. She
also worked tirelessly with women’s veteran
organizations, including WOVEN, where she
supported veterans as they built their own businesses.
Her partnership with the California Water Association
exemplified her devotion to uplifting small businesses,
especially those navigating supplier diversity within
complex industries.
