Services for Outfitters, Operators & Seasonal Businesses
We help outfitters, ski schools, river companies, camps, and small-but-mighty teams in seasonal towns run smarter — not harder.
Whether you're hiring a summer crew, reworking your payroll, or trying to make year-round sustainability possible, we’re here to build the systems that help your business thrive and support the people who power it.
At Guide Theory, we bring a blend of strategic insight, hands-on operations experience, and regenerative thinking. Every service we offer is built with your real-world seasonal rhythms in mind — flexible, efficient, and human-centered.
Let’s replace chaos with clarity — and create long-term solutions that outlast the season.
Retainers & One-Offs Available
We offer flexible consulting packages — from one-hour intensives to seasonal retainers — depending on your goals, budget, and urgency.

One-off or ongoing systems support.
Need to audit your process, map your workflow, or just get some experienced eyes on a mess?
We offer hourly or project-based consulting to simplify your ops — from SOP creation to team communication. -
Less busywork. More bandwidth.
We analyze your current workflows and recommend AI or automation tools to reduce manual labor — freeing you (or your admin team) to focus on what actually matters. Especially useful for small teams. -
Understand your landscape. Stand out with purpose.
We research your competitors, customers, and market positioning to uncover opportunities and help you differentiate. Whether you’re launching a new product, refining your services, or pitching investors, we turn scattered ideas into sharp strategy. -
Build a better seasonal team — and keep them coming back.
From job descriptions to onboarding flows, we help you attract the right people, create a culture that supports them, and implement systems that reduce turnover and improve team longevity. -
Have something weird and wonderful? We’re in.
Whether it’s a guide training manual, a shared housing model, or a full back-end operations overhaul, we work with businesses to build regenerative, people-first systems that match their mission.
