Grandberries Consulting Group

What Grandberries Consulting Group does

Grandberries Consulting Group, Inc. is a privately held, Atlanta-based professional services firm founded in 1999 by CEO Sharon Grandberry Burton. The firm operates as a full-scale consultancy delivering eight core service lines: e-learning development (SCORM-compatible web-based training via tools such as Captivate, UPK, and Assima), instructional design using the ADDIE methodology, technical writing and documentation, training facilitation, business process development, change management, general consulting, and marketing/advertising services. Revenue is generated entirely through project-based, quote-priced professional services engagements delivered by a small (1–10 employee) team, with no public subscription, SaaS, or productized component.

The firm serves a horizontal mix of client segments, with large corporations as the primary segment and secondary exposure to small and medium businesses, government agencies, and educational institutions. The public customer list includes a notable roster of Fortune 500 and public-sector logos (Microsoft, American Express, Delta Air Lines, Home Depot, Walmart, Walgreens, Bank of America, Coca-Cola, UnitedHealthcare, UPS, NCR, Raytheon, SunTrust, and the State of Georgia), but with such limited headcount these are most consistent with discrete, sub-contracted engagement work rather than full enterprise retainers. Distribution is wholly direct-sales via consultative engagement from the Atlanta headquarters, with no partner channel, no offices beyond Atlanta, and no disclosed capital. The firm carries no AI/ML capabilities, no proprietary technology IP, and has reported no funding rounds, acquisitions, or restructuring events.
