WHAT WE DO
Strategy for ideas, challenges
and opportunities that need a path forward.
We help businesses, organizations and municipalities turn ideas into action through strategy, community engagement, strategic connections and thoughtful execution.
Our Story
Local As Can Bee began as a way to shine a light on small-batch makers, creative products, and purpose-driven design. But as we supported local businesses with product development, something unexpected happened ….
we became mentors.
Through real conversations and hands-on support, we helped small businesses unlock new revenue streams. That journey led us to something bigger: partnering with cities and municipalities to create programs that uplift entire communities.
Today, under the umbrella of Helligar Consulting, we bridge creativity, entrepreneurship, and community development. Whether you’re launching a brand, a program, or a vision, we help you make it thrive from the inside out.
