Torres Strategy Co. helps Austin's small businesses — especially women-owned startups — streamline operations and scale sustainably. Real guidance from someone who genuinely gets it.
Three core focus areas where women-owned businesses and startups see the fastest, most meaningful results.
Your business shouldn't run on chaos and sticky notes. I audit your current workflows, identify the leaks, and build systems that actually work — so you stop working harder just to stay afloat. Most clients reclaim 8–12 hours per week within 60 days.
Starting at $750Growth without a plan is just expensive guessing. I work with you to build a clear, realistic roadmap for scaling — one that fits your team size, budget, and vision. No hustle culture, no overnight promises — just steady, measurable momentum.
Starting at $1,200Running a business solo — or nearly solo — is isolating. I offer one-on-one coaching for founders who need a trusted thinking partner, a sounding board, and someone in their corner who has navigated these exact same challenges before. You're not alone in this.
Starting at $500/moTorres Strategy Co. was born right here in Austin, Texas, out of a simple but powerful belief: small businesses deserve the same quality of strategic support that big corporations pay millions for. Lila Torres founded this practice because she watched too many talented, hardworking women pour everything into their businesses — and still struggle because they didn't have anyone in their corner who understood both the vision and the day-to-day grind.
The mission is straightforward: help women-owned businesses and resource-light startups build the operational foundations and growth strategies they need to scale without burning out their founders. Every recommendation is grounded in what's realistic for your team, your budget, and your life — because a plan that works on paper but breaks you in practice isn't a plan at all.
What makes Torres Strategy Co. different is the relationship. Lila isn't a faceless consultant who hands you a 40-page report and disappears. She shows up like a trusted neighbor — warm, direct, honest — because she genuinely cares about whether Austin's small business community thrives. Her clients often describe her as the person they wish they'd found three years earlier.
Community sits at the heart of everything here. Lila believes that when one small business wins, the whole neighborhood benefits. That's why she prioritizes working with founders who are invested not just in their own success, but in contributing something meaningful to the city and the people around them. If that sounds like you, you're in exactly the right place.

"Before working with Lila, I was drowning in a business I thought I loved. She came in, looked at everything without judgment, and helped me rebuild our client intake process from scratch. Within six weeks I had reclaimed my Friday afternoons. That alone was worth every penny."
Marisol Vega
Owner, Raíces Holistic Wellness • Austin, TX

"I hired Lila when my catering business hit a wall at the $200K mark and I couldn't figure out why. She identified two bottlenecks in our operations within our first meeting. By month three we had broken through to $280K in annual revenue — and I finally had a team that could run without me hovering. Lila is the real deal."
Danielle Okonkwo
Founder, Harvest Table Catering • Austin, TX
★★★★★
"As a first-generation business owner, I didn't even know what I didn't know. Lila met me exactly where I was — no jargon, no judgment, just practical tools and a whole lot of encouragement. Her monthly coaching package gave me the structure and confidence I needed to raise my prices, fire a bad-fit client, and start actually enjoying running my business again."
