Process + Discipline + Reputation
Do you own a company and business is not going exactly how you planned? Do you have challenges you haven’t been able to solve yet, or are you always frustrated?
I am so glad you are here, and I’m excited to share how I can help!
I’m Cory Lacek, and I’ve dedicated 12 years to successfully growing businesses in a variety of industries, including medical, education, sports, pets, and home improvement.
What is Pittsburgh Business Plus?
My wide-range of experiences have provided me with a unique combination of skills that I use when working with businesses. Along with being a client/patient experience expert, those skills include marketing + strategy + technology + operations + human resources + finances.
I am extremely results-oriented. Pittsburgh Business+ was created specifically to help us connect because I want to partner with you and and elevate your company to the next level.

Skin in the Game
In the past, you may have hired employees or consultants who promised you the world.
When talking about Partners vs. Consultants, it’s about having Skin in the Game! Whether they specialize in marketing, operations, or any other business aspect, consultants get paid regardless of success or failure.
I am interested in a long-term partnership so our efforts are rewarded both short and long-term.
Meet Cory
As a former small business owner myself, I understand how valuable each hour in the day and each dollar in the bank account is!
Along my journey I’ve learned and embraced that there are no shortcuts to success. I am passionate about analyzing challenges, identifying paths to success, and working until the goals are reached!

The Pandemic + Remote Work
Covid-19 was an unprecedented shock to “business as usual,” and it was a wake-up call to small businesses! Ask yourself the following questions.
- Were you able to adapt the business model to continue earning revenue, possibly through e-commerce?
- Was technology an asset or did the lack of technology and automated systems significantly hinder your efforts?
- Did your team have the support they needed so when one person was unable to work, the company was able to continue operating responsibly?
- Today, are your products and/or services diverse enough so you can sustain a decrease in one or two industry segments?
During the pandemic, I helped businesses not only survive, but thrive. Safety is always the #1 priority so know that we can accomplish a lot on Zoom video calls!
