Clay Dennis
A business owner's coach with real business ownership experience
Business Coaching, Group Coaching, Sales Coaching, Strategy Coaching
Interested?As a long-time former business owner, I understand the frustrations of feeling overwhelmed by inaccurate company books, people problems, and the constant pressure to keep everything afloat. That’s why I now help business owners regain control of their financials, make decisions with clarity and confidence, and build systems that place the right people in the right roles.
Together, we clarify and communicate long-term business goals, establish real leadership accountability, and create a culture of growth throughout the company.
The result is a business that reflects the owner’s deeper vision—not just for profit, but for more freedom, meaningful community impact, and a lasting legacy.

My Clients
- Phil Monroe, The appliance Doctor:
"Last year I was a mess – disorganized, stressed-out, not sure where I and the company were headed. Clay helped me straighten out my books, figure out where my money was being spent, develop a new website, etc. Here’s the part I like: Gross sales over the same period last year: Up 48%. Net profit: Up 40%. Profits are up, and my blood pressure is down. I couldn’t recommend them more highly."
- Michael Bennett, Printree:
"Being in business for 25 years, we have a lot of experience figuring out how to get by and make things work. Enter Clay Dennis... As a result of his expertise, we now have systems in place that make things much more predictable. For the first time since 1997, we have an understanding of how all the moving parts of our business connect, how to set realistic and attainable goals, and how to track our efforts to meet them."
Dwayne Alborn, Veteran Home Care Ohio:
"Working with Clay is not like working with any other advisor. He is personally invested in your success both on a business and personal level. His program structure is based on your needs not a predesigned format. He is very open-minded, and I never feel like my goals are not relevant or that my questions are stupid. Clay’s calm demeanor is always supportive and encouraging. He goes above and beyond to assure you have the tools and knowledge to be successful and meet your goals."
Joey Tubbs, RSW Chattanooga:
"Clay Dennis has been a tremendous asset to our business. He has helped us triple our revenue in one year. Also, he has helped us get organized, define our processes, and set our culture. I highly recommend Clay Dennis and Part-Time Business Partners."

Jim Childers, United States Stove Company:
“PTBP has helped us develop best business practices and processes necessary to take our retail operations to the next level of performance. They have a ‘boots on the ground approach’ and have given us very genuine personal service. They are not satisfied until they know their clients are showing success with what they have developed. Their diverse expertise has greatly helped with our broad range of needs.”
