Shape the concept.
Refine the business.
Build a path forward.
Oren Epstein is a brand and business advisor working with founders, operators, talent, athletes, and hospitality groups building consumer, wellness, and experience-led ventures. The work happens at moments of build, refinement, or transition.
I come in when a business needs a strategic advisor to sharpen the thinking behind what they are building.
The problems are usually the same across categories. Brand positioning that is doing too little. A commercial model that has not caught up with the ambition. A go-to-market plan built on assumptions instead of structure. Whether the client is a founder, an operator, or talent building a venture, the diagnosis starts in the same place.
I bring outside judgment, real operating experience (including founding and scaling a nationally distributed CPG brand), and the directness to call what is not working. Some clients call it advisory. I call it being a co-founder for hire. When execution requires specialists, I pull in the right people. The advisory platform is The Better Advisors.
About Oren
Concept to commercial.
Every advisory engagement runs across three areas: sharpening the brand concept and experience, building visibility and go-to-market strategy, and strengthening the business infrastructure behind the idea. The mix depends on what the business actually needs.
