Lighthouse Business Navigation was built to help small business owners understand what is not working and fix it. Hi, I’m Kari L. Probst, founder of Lighthouse Business Navigation.

​

I’ve spent years noticing the same thing in business after business: owners work hard, care deeply, and still end up overwhelmed because the systems behind the scenes are not working the way they should. Those day-to-day issues quietly cost time, money, and peace of mind.

​

I started Lighthouse Business Navigation to give business owners practical, honest support. My focus is not on adding more noise or complexity. I help owners step back, understand what is really happening, and put practical systems in place that make running a business feel more manageable.

​

My perspective is shaped by both education and professional experience. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Development, an MBA in Project Management, and a Master’s degree in Information Technology. I have also worked with organizations including Comerica Bank, Huntington Bank, and World of Floors Corporate. Those experiences strengthened my understanding of financial processes, business operations, structure, and the day-to-day realities that affect how a business runs.

​

If your business feels harder to run than it should, I’d love to help you find a better course forward. Sometimes it only takes a fresh set of eyes and the right structure to start moving a business in a better direction. You do not have to figure it out alone.
