Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our services, process, and how we work with clients across retail and manufacturing.

What types of businesses do you work with?

We primarily work with retail, manufacturing, and distribution-focused businesses, including smoke shops, convenience stores, lifestyle retail brands, and enterprise or multi-location operators. Our clients range from founder-led companies to established teams looking to scale or refine their vendor and partner relationships.

What services does Tyler Scott Consulting provide?

We provide vendor and supplier sourcing, brokerage and deal facilitation, and strategic consulting. Our work centers on connecting businesses with the right partners, negotiating and structuring relationships, and supporting execution to drive sustainable growth.

How is TCS different from traditional consultants or brokers?

We take a relationship-first approach. Rather than offering generic advice or one-off introductions, we work closely with clients to understand their goals, constraints, and long-term plans. This allows us to make thoughtful, relevant connections and support outcomes — not just transactions.

What does the engagement process look like?

Every engagement begins with a discovery and alignment phase, where we evaluate your business needs and objectives. From there, we identify opportunities, facilitate introductions or deals, and support execution as partnerships move forward. The scope and structure are tailored to each client.
