To provide business solutions that help our clients become what they have envisioned.
At AMACG, we tailor solutions based on the specific needs of our clients. We offer consulting services, customized assessments for small organizations seeking to build or improve operations, and interactive small group trainings facilitated by industry leaders. We aim to be a sustainable resource to our clients in the for profit and non-profit space.
Our Founder, Lanetta Allen, initially started AMA Consulting Group (formerly known as Mobile Administrative Services aka MAS) to provide administrative and web design services to small businesses. It later evolved to address the recurring need for concrete administrative systems and procedures to govern operations. Having worked in administration and operations in both for-profit and non-profit sectors, Lanetta understands that in addition to great ideas, products and services, having the right infrastructure in place greatly contributes to the overall health, efficiency and growth of an organization. It was her willingness to assist others in the building of their dreams and the desire to be a solution to this need that laid the foundation for the direction of our company.
In 2014, our founder paused her dream to overcome a major illness and subsequently accepted a full-time position with another firm. However, her heart remained in entrepreneurship, and she continued to periodically consult family, friends and referrals during this time. In April 2020, Lanetta decided to take a leap of faith and resign from a promising position as Finance Director in the RD/Operations arm of a national non-profit to pursue her dream full-time. With renewed focus and passion, Lanetta relaunched MAS under the new name, AMA Consulting Group.
Integrity is the key to building relationships and maintaining our client’s trust and confidence.
Excellence is the driving force behind all services delivered to our clients. We seek to promote a culture of excellence in all we do.
