About us
Business Architects…
At Acorn, we think of ourselves as Business Architects.
We help our clients create, plan, and build their ideas into great businesses. Acorn was founded in 1985 and has helped entrepreneurs with good business concepts, to build successful, leading-edge companies in the United States, United Kingdom, and Europe since 1985 over the last 36 years.
The Founder’s partner…
Acorn believes the best results come from working side-by-side with our entrepreneur clients to produce results that match your thinking and voice.
Every client will have direct access to Leonard M Fertig, Founder of Acorn and a virtual team of experts in every facet of designing and building a business from concept to operations.
No assignment is finished until our client is happy with the result!

Acorn's mission
Acorn’s Business Architects help entrepreneurs Create, Plan, Launch and Build their ideas into great companies.
As a founder, you know what you want to do, who you want to do it for, and why it is a good idea. But it is often hard to explain that to possible financial backers and existing investors, key people you want to add to your team, and even to get your team to fully understand where you are going.
Everyone tells you to create a first-class business plan, revenue model, financial plan and go-to-market strategy. But how can you do that while at the same time doing the 24/7 job of building a business? One answer is to ask your professionals, such as attorneys or accountants to help. But too often what you wind up with is inconsistent, and more importantly, not your voice or thinking.
That’s a big reason why our clients love to work with us. At Acorn, we listen more than we talk. We ask you lots of questions to understand your vision, your goals, your expectations. Every entrepreneurial business is different, but the successful ones are focused on where the founders and team want to go and the business plan consistently reflects that vision.
Working closely together with our clients, building a world-beating business plan takes weeks, but once it is done, Acorn is there for the long run to give you support whenever you need it. We remain in touch as we have with our first clients from 1985.
