Three disciplines
Turnaround
Your business is in distress. I get it back into shape. Lean operations, the leaks found and fixed, fundamentals rebuilt from how the work really happens.
Scaling
Something is working. I scale it without breaking it. The systems, the team, and the operations to hold at the next level, built lean.
The gold mine
You do not need a new idea. The gold mine is the business you already have. I find the growth levers sitting inside it and show you how to pull them.
Services
Three services. One standard.
Not sure where you fit? Choose your path.
You are a founder or operator whose business is stuck, drifting, or scaling past what its systems can hold.
What happens: a straight read of the books, the people, and the operation, then what to fix first and what it pays back.
Best first step: an advisory call. Thirty minutes $150, sixty minutes $275, credited toward a diagnostic.See pricing
You are sitting on funds or assets that should be yours and are not in your hands yet.
What happens: research and diagnosis first, the numbers, the documents, and the history, then the claim handled end to end.
Best first step: a complimentary fifteen-minute introduction. No pitch.Start a conversation
You are figuring something out and want a second head in the room.
What happens: one-on-one conversations. A sounding board, not therapy; general life advice, not licensed financial advice.

Business advisory
Turnaround, scaling, and growth.
Turnaround, scaling, and growth work for founders, firms, and the small businesses the Bay Area is built on.

Start with a thirty-minute advisory call ($150) or sixty minutes ($275, credited toward a diagnostic). Engagements from $500, quoted before work begins. A full diagnostic from $2,500 comes back with written findings, ranked by payback. In person at 1 Sansome Street, San Francisco, by appointment.
Asset recovery
What’s yours, recovered.
Unclaimed funds and assets, researched and claimed properly, handled end to end.
Research and diagnosis first: the numbers, the documents, and the history gathered before anything is filed, then the claim handled end to end. Everything quoted before work begins and paid only on acceptance.
Clarity advisory
A second head when you need one.
One-on-one conversations for people figuring things out: life direction, ideas, hard decisions, a second head when you need one.
One-on-one conversations for people figuring things out: life direction, ideas, hard decisions. A sounding board, not therapy, and general life advice, not licensed financial advice. Thirty minutes $150, sixty minutes $275. In person in San Francisco, by appointment.

The principal
Meet Francisco.
I’m Francisco Carrasco, CEO and Owner of Echelon Luxury Services. Fifteen years running operations.
I work one-on-one with founders, firms, and the small businesses the Bay Area is built on. In person in San Francisco, by appointment. You work with one principal: me.
Home base in Hayward, California. Serving individuals and small business owners across the East Bay and the Bay Area.
Method
Lean by design.
The process work, research, drafting, documents, and follow-up, is handled by workflows built for the task, so the hours go to judgment instead of overhead.
Research and diagnosis.
The numbers, the documents, and the history are gathered before anyone sits down, so you arrive ready to think, not to enter data.
Drafting and documents.
Plans and paperwork are drafted, then reviewed line by line by the principal before you ever see them.
Monitoring and follow-up.
What was agreed is watched, and what needs attention gets flagged, so nothing decided gets quietly dropped.
You work with one principal. The method works for both of you.
The standard
One principal does the work.
If our own checklist fails on delivery, the revision is free.
That is the entire arrangement, and it has never needed fine print.
The work is lean by design: agentic workflows take on the process work, so your people spend their hours on creativity.
