Blue Spruce Consulting Co.
Helping small businesses work smarter — not harder. 🌲
Tired of juggling it all?
We help local business owners get organized, grow, and breathe again.
Most small businesses already have the tools they need — they just need better systems, structure, and strategy to make it all work together.
Hi, I’m Cody Gajnos
