I’m proud of my clients’ success.

“Deborah Lutner, MS hit my radar as I have been exploring potential business opportunities. Our check-ins are highlights of my weeks. Never feeling pressured, she has helped me articulate goals, needs, and wants in the role I take next. I also love that she offered me a DISC survey. The results were fun to unpack together.”

Christopher Ackman – Charlotte, North Carolina

During my search for revitalizing my career, I connected with Deborah and ventured into the exploration of owning my own company. Her ability to listen and explore all of my skill sets was very impressive. She then poised questions that elicited me to find deeper depth in my abilities and my family’s wants and directed my search in the most positive direction. I highly recommend Deborah for anyone seeking out an alternative career and changing the direction in their life to provide further fulfillment.

Edward S. – Jacksonville, FL

Deborah reached out to me to consider exploring opportunities via The Entrepreneur’s Source. Following a tried-and-true discovery process, Deborah was attentive to my plans in introducing me to opportunities to consider. Deborah clearly listens to her customer and poses opportunities that best fit those plans. I can fully recommend Deborah as a resource qualified to assist anyone looking to explore “what’s next” in their career path. Thank you Deborah in taking me through TES’s process!

Richard W. – Sanibel, FL

I really enjoy working with Deborah. She has taken the time to understand my goals and been able to introduce me to a range of investment opportunities tailored to my interests and background. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and responsive.

Jason I. – Atlanta, GA

Deborah has been an excellent coach for me to build strategic thinking for my career development. She helped me to rediscover my true strength, passion and needs as I was preparing for the next phase of my professional career as well as exploring self-owned business opportunities. She was extremely patient, knowledgeable and professional. Strongly recommended for anyone who needs a professional opinion or advice to take the career ownership.

Bin W. – Fairfax County, VA

Deborah connected with me when I was in between jobs and opened up new possibilities for myself and my career.

Following a very structured process, she got to know about your goals in business and life and helped with my thinking on the next steps. She also presented me with a few personalized options on potential opportunities that made sense for me.

I will be joining Vistage as a Chair in Austin, Texas on 8/1/22.They are a worldwide leader in Executive Coaching & I would not have rekindled my passion for this field but for Deborah.

Thanks for everything Deborah and here is to helping many more people like me.

I will stay connected with you and hope to update you with my progress periodically.

Chandra V. – Austin, TX

I highly recommend Deborah for anyone who is seriously interested in, or just considering a franchise opportunity. Her approach very collaborative, and her aim is to understand YOUR goals and aspirations, not just from a monetary standpoint, and find opportunities that match you goals. She is a great partner and resource!

Bruce M. – Evergreen, CO

When I received an invitation to seek consultation with a Career Ownership Coach, I had the great fortune of multiple complimentary consultations with Ms. Deborah Lutner. Her diverse leadership experience was just what I needed to jump start my exploration into self-sufficiency and to refine my career path.

From our introductory meeting and beyond, I have found her passion, energy and insight to be refreshingly innovative with the combination of interpersonal and objective analytical assessments. Her unique ability to elicit information and provide invaluable feedback in a warm, professional, coaching setting has been immensely rewarding. I highly recommend an opportunity to seek consultation with her!!

Vik K. – Ashburn, VA

I have had a few initial conversations with Deborah to explore small business ownership opportunities and she has been very informative and patient in the exploratory phase. Her no-pressure approach is refreshing and I look forward to working with her in the future.

James L. – New York, NY

Deborah is such an amazing person. She guided me though my development and helped me figure things out. Introduced me to a lot of fields and really opened my eyes to what things I wanted out of a career. She is smart and patient. A beautiful person with amazing energy. Thanks for everything!

Shahab S. – Pasadena, CA

Deborah has been a very useful addition to navigating my career growth. Not only is she pleasant and engaging, she was able to give meaningful and individualized feedback in a way that was able to be put into action immediately. Her 20 years of healthcare experience was clear in our conversations. If you are looking for a little direction in your career path, reach out to her! You will not be disappointed.

Mark G. – Chicago Metro, IL

Has anyone ever showed up in your life unexpectedly, but they turned out to be exactly who you needed at the right time? Well, this is precisely what happened when Deborah walked into my life. She reached out to me not only because she liked my LinkedIn profile but based on the fact that we both attended Colgate University. Not only has Deborah served as a mentor to me but she has opened my eyes to things that I never realized about myself. She has motivated me to focus on self reliance and less on a 9-5. Deborah has guided me in mapping out the kind of life I want to live and subsequently supply to my loved ones. In addition to being an amazing human being, Deborah is easy to talk to, compassionate, thoughtful and forces me to dig deep into the essence of who I really am. I highly recommend Deborah to anyone who needs to readjust their mindset and understand that there is more to life than meets the eye and there are alternative paths of reaching true happiness.

Dionne D. – Atlanta Metro, GA

Deborah is very kind, helpful, and knowledgable. She goes above and beyond working with you. She builds a solid relationship with her clients and helps them determine what they want in their life and what direction to go as you work through the Discovery process, and financing. She coaches you on what to do during discovery and what questions to ask. I was also looking for work and she helped and gave me advice for interviews.

Stacie C. – Troy, Michigan

“I started with just me and one truck, working out of my garage. I now have four employees, and I am in a commercial space. The earnings potential is pretty well limitless at this point. I am busy. I do have to spend time away from my family just as I did before. But now, if I want to stay home and cook my kids breakfast, I can. On nice sunny days, if I want to cut out early to take the kids swimming, I do. I don’t just have weekends to choose from anymore.”

BRANDEN BOWDEN, New Business Owner

“After working as an executive in the Detroit area, I found myself at a crossroads. At the age of 64, many people are looking to wind down; but I was starting a whole new adventure. I considered taking another shot at the day-to-day corporate grind. I tried to find another position, but my wife and I have always dreamed of owning our own business, so we began to examine the possibilities. That’s when I found The Entrepreneur’s Source®. I feel my coach has developed his communication skills which allow him to listen with true empathy and I completely trusted The Entrepreneur’s Source process. Now I feel I have personal value in my work. I am loving being a business owner and can see the impact it can have on others. The Entrepreneur’s Source has a great process to help you explore self-sufficiency.”

RICK WEAVER, New Business Owner

“I was traveling across the country working in corporate sales and one day I realized that I didn’t want to travel anymore! That’s when I began to think about owning my own business. I began working with my Career Ownership Coach who helped me begin my Journey of Discovery. For me, it was a great process. I was learning about what excited and motivated me, but also what didn’t! That was just as important. I am so happy I went on the “journey,” and was also happy to have my coach along with me. He was a very good listener. He was genuinely interested in my long-term success. and he challenged me to see some things I didn’t even see in myself.”

LEE PUTNAM, New Business Owner

“I had worked for 15 years in the world of corporate finance when I was forced to make a sudden exit. I had always thought to myself, I have this great corporate job, I’m on easy street. But I was really in the wrong place at the wrong time. I had no control over my own destiny. My Career Ownership Coach helped me take a close look at Franchising to achieve self-sufficiency.  Franchising was a better choice for me rather than starting a business from the ground up. I have a good sense of how things should run and customer service but I tend not to be strong on the sales side and frankly, I am not the stereotypical idea-man. A franchise is giving you the playbook, and you have a product. In my mind a lot of the basics have been built, you just need to follow the proven system. When friends are approaching those exit ramps in life, the first thing I tell them to do is to connect with a Career Ownership Coach at The Entrepreneur’s source.”

ANDREW BROWN, New Business Owner

“The first time I met with my coach, I didn’t think I would walk out with a popcorn stand…Throughout my career, I never once dreamed I’d be in the place I’m in now. I thank E-Source for helping guide me.”

BILL BENTZ, New Business Owner

“Being an entrepreneur was always an idea in my head, but to be honest, I thought when I got to the point in my life that I had a family, that that ship had sailed. My wife and I met with our Career Ownership Coach and found The Entrepreneur’s Source® to be a valuable tool throughout our discovery process. Now, as a business owner I have not only raised nearly $1 million dollars for schools in my community, but I work hard, and I get the flexibility to do what I want to do when I want to do it.”

MICHAEL SCROOPE, New Business Owner
