“We needed contacts in the Peruvian jungle, people who knew the subject, and we had a tight deadline. Francis was able to provide valuable contacts that greatly informed our production, and he worked quickly. He’s no-nonsense, and delivers what he promises.”

“Francis is like the godfather of TradeYa. He’s been a trusted resource since the very inception of the idea for the business. I value his perspective on all aspects of making this business thrive.”
“Thank you so much for letting Moonwater Farm be part of “Fix it Francis” in a live setting. The community assistance to move our business ideas forward has catalyzed new relationships that will be valuable resources for a long time to come. We have connected with educators who are interested in having operational support for their aquaponic themed curriculum, new business developers in the mobile grocery space that are potential distributors and expert growers that can provide guidance for the farming side of our business. We are delighted with the process and will continue to pursue collaborative relationships in the local Los Angeles food economy which are now richer for our Fix It Francis exposure. ”
“Francis has connected us with a number of exciting local projects as well as major international brands. He understands our organization quite well, and has provided us with very valuable connections, all timely and suited to our needs.”
“PERFECT! Fix it Francis will deliver the goods and with more heart than you ever thought possible”
“ I can always count on Francis to make magic happen. No matter how challenging the request, from ‘Build me a team of celebrities to play at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas’ to ‘Find me a gig on a Presidential campaign’, in my experience Francis always delivers and then some! It’s totally amazing what he is able to pull off.”
“Francis has referred to me a steady stream of clients for over 2 decades. I can count on him to always make connections to good people.”
“I am blessed to count myself among Francis’s Fix It clients. I’d reached out to Francis while in New Mexico exile, eager to move back home to Los Angeles, while doubtful that it was even possible. Only a month later, I drove my car - stuffed full with as may possessions as I could fit - back home, where I moved into precisely the house I was looking for - a spacious one on a hilltop, surrounded by trees and silence, minus the late night sounds of those mid-kill coyotes which I find strangely soothing.
Francis has a knack for listening deeply and for piecing through the rambling, the repeating and the whining to home in on what’s relevant, what the priorities are, and where the solutions lie. He clearly and patiently laid out action steps for me to follow, and did so with the gentle confidence of an all-knowing patriarch, only younger, and with better accessories. For the creative air sign who tends toward overwhelm, Francis is an invaluable advisor, helping me sift through the ideas and spin-offs and the world’s unruliest to-do list (spoken like only a narcissist can), and to prioritize, and to wrangle my forward motion into a semblance of manageable, and effective even.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Fix It Francis is a master solution-finder/implementer. Oh, and he rocks, like, big time.”
