Queen Kong Consulting has been recognized as the Best Profit & Performance Consulting Firm in the Business Services and Strategic Consulting category, marking a significant milestone for the growth and performance consulting firm built specifically for women entrepreneurs ready to scale with power, precision, and purpose.
The award acknowledges the firm’s exceptional track record of driving profit, performance, and sustainable growth for established entrepreneurs through a unique blend of corporate-grade operational rigor and bold, human-centered strategy. Since its founding, Queen Kong Consulting has helped clients generate more than $3 billion in combined sales while simultaneously improving margins, operational efficiency, and leadership effectiveness.
Founded by Jo Rawald, a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt with more than 25 years of leadership and management consulting experience, the firm brings corporate-grade discipline into the entrepreneurial world in a way that feels bold, human, and energizing. Rawald’s extensive background includes supporting hundreds of women entrepreneurs in building businesses that perform at a higher level, translating complex operational frameworks into accessible strategies that deliver measurable results.
At the core of the firm’s methodology is a proprietary four-pillar framework encompassing Leadership, Sales, Operations, and Financials. When these pillars are aligned, businesses grow with clarity, confidence, and control. The profit and performance consulting approach helps clients strengthen decision-making, streamline operations, improve profitability, and expand into commercial and corporate markets that might otherwise remain out of reach.
Beyond traditional consulting services, Queen Kong Consulting has distinguished itself through specialized expertise in business certifications. The firm guides women-owned, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and LGBTQ+ owned businesses through strategic certification processes that unlock supplier diversity programs, contracts, and commercial opportunities. This work consistently elevates credibility and expands market access for growing companies, opening doors that most founders never realize are available.
What sets the firm apart in the competitive consulting landscape is its ability to deliver clear execution and financial discipline while honoring values, leadership, and sustainability. Rather than imposing rigid corporate structures, the strategic consulting for women entrepreneurs approach adapts proven methodologies to fit the realities of entrepreneurial businesses, creating profit-forward systems that support long-term performance without sacrificing the founder’s vision or energy.
The recognition as Best Profit & Performance Consulting Firm reflects a proven commitment to excellence, impact, and results in the business consulting industry. As more women entrepreneurs seek to build scalable empires rather than simply sustainable businesses, the firm continues to provide the strategic framework, operational systems, and certification expertise for business growth that transform strong businesses into high-performing enterprises capable of competing in commercial and corporate markets.
