Two years ago Tolland started coaching the CEO of http://www.parkbench.com during their early start-up phase when they were establishing themselves in a crowded market. All aspects of the new business were covered from sales approach, pricing, staffing, product positioning and expansion strategies.

Parkbench is a neighbourhood-focused network. They use all the leading websites to curate everything that’s going on in each neighbourhood and present it on one easy-to-use platform: neighbourhood-focused search, coupons and events supported by local business associations.

Parkbench is meeting its profitability goals, has established itself as the number one events site in Toronto, and is launching in new markets like Vancouver. Today Chris Webber continues as a member of Parkbench’s advisory team.
