Longpré Ventures / Dustin Longpré
Based in Canada.
Working internationally.
I work with founders and CEOs to lead operating priorities, strengthen commercial systems and expand established businesses.
Particularly relevant to service businesses, multi-location companies and franchise systems.
Operating experience
Prior business ownership / Alberta
I built and operated home inspection territories in Red Deer, Leduc and Fort McMurray, with a subcontractor model connecting local business development and service delivery.
Inspectors delivered the work and developed their own referral relationships, supported by common scheduling, onboarding and service workflows.

My GFO responsibilities brought territory strategy, candidate qualification and the development pipeline together with onboarding, CRM processes and operating follow-through.
The work involved the CEO, franchise owners, colleagues and partners, with development and operations responsibilities within my remit.

When to bring me in
Your team can deliver, but you are still resolving handoffs and chasing commitments. Establish clear responsibilities, priorities and a regular way to review progress.
Pipeline, follow-up and delivery are disconnected. Bring the commercial process and the people responsible for execution into the same operating plan.
New locations or partners add decisions about standards, economics and control. Assess readiness and give the agreed rollout work a responsible leader.
Three ways to move forward
Priorities, management cadence, accountability, commercial processes and cross-functional execution.
