ABOUT LEVL PARTNERS

Good businesses
deserve clear direction.

LEVL Partners is a Wisconsin-based consulting firm helping small-business owners improve operations, profitability, and growth nationwide.

OUR POINT OF VIEW

You’ve built something.
Let’s help it work better.

Owning a business means carrying a lot: customers, employees, schedules, costs, and the next decision. It can be hard to find time to look at the whole picture.

LEVL Partners helps you step back, make sense of the information, and turn it into practical priorities. Our work combines data with the reality of running a business.

MEET THE PARTNERS

Business problems rarely fit into one box. Neither do we.

LEVL Partners combines operational, financial, organizational, and people-focused thinking to help business owners see the whole company — not just one piece of it.

Grant Simmons

Founder & Principal

Grant founded LEVL Partners to help owners turn a closer look at their business into clear next steps. He digs into the numbers, operations, and day-to-day work to identify inefficiencies, risks, and opportunities for growth.

His background spans operations, SOPs and process improvement, HR, organizational development, and multi-state real estate. Experience analyzing small businesses, financial performance, and acquisition opportunities helps him connect how a company runs with how it performs.

Grant holds a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and has pursued graduate-level education in Human Resources and Organizational Development.

Sal Donzella

People & Operations Partner

Sal helps owners strengthen the systems behind their teams. His experience covers multi-site HR operations, employee and labor relations, performance management, compliance, manager coaching, onboarding, and training. He brings a practical approach to accountability, conflict resolution, and complex personnel decisions.

A former general manager in high-volume hospitality and food service, Sal understands the demands of leading a busy operation. He managed a location through a record-breaking holiday season exceeding $8 million in sales and has advised senior leaders on challenging people issues.

Sal is currently completing a Master of Human Resources Management at Pepperdine Graziadio.

When specialized expertise is needed, LEVL Partners can work alongside the client’s existing attorneys, accountants, financial professionals, and other advisors.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Close to the owner.
Close to the work.

We focus on owner-operated businesses: contractors, HVAC companies, landscapers, skilled trades, local service companies, manufacturers, and other small businesses ready to improve.

01

Make it useful.

Advice should help you make a decision or take action. We aim for clear recommendations that fit the way your business operates.

02

Follow the evidence.

We use available data, check assumptions, and explain what the information does—and doesn’t—tell us.

03

Respect the owner’s perspective.

You know the customers, the team, and the work. We listen to that experience and bring an outside perspective to help you see the options.

WISCONSIN ROOTS. NATIONWIDE REACH.

Practical by design.

Wherever your business is based, the goal is the same: understand what’s happening, focus on what matters, and build a practical path forward.
