About / Built By Roth
I’m Scott Roth, Founder & Business Navigator. I help founder-led businesses and organizations figure out what’s actually getting in the way, then build the systems to move forward.

Founder & Business Navigator
I didn’t come up through one lane. That’s the point.
My work has crossed entrepreneurship, nonprofit leadership, marketing, community development, technology, cycling, sales and organizational leadership. Each perspective changes what I notice about a business and how its parts connect.
Built By Roth is for founders and leadership teams who are already moving but feel how growth has made the business harder to manage. We don’t arrive with a predetermined service to sell. We learn the terrain, find the real problem and build what will help the work move forward.
That may mean clarifying the message, fixing a sales handoff, designing an operating process, using AI or automation thoughtfully, or helping a new initiative take shape. The common thread is practical systems, built collaboratively and improved through use.
The Built By Roth difference
Traditional consultants may stop at recommendations. Agencies often stay in a single discipline. Software companies sell a tool. I work between them: understand the business, identify the problem, design the solution, build the system, help operate it and improve it.
Look at the business as a connected whole.
Design and create what the real problem calls for.
Help operate the system and adjust from what happens.
We’ll figure out what the real problem is and what needs to happen next.
