About The Brand
JeffThinksDifferently is a platform and a professional advisory brand built for individuals who want a clearer, more human, and more structured way to navigate major decisions in business, franchising, and real estate.
This brand was created by people who know what it feels like to think differently — and who turned that lived experience into a strategic advantage.
We combine global business expertise with pressure-aware decision support, helping people move forward with clarity, stability, and confidence they can trust.
We exist for entrepreneurs, investors, families, and decision-makers who want guidance from professionals who understand not just the deal — but how people think, process risk, and respond under pressure.
Our Purpose
To provide smarter, confidential, safer, and more personal decision support for people navigating high-stakes opportunities — where the financial, lifestyle, and personal impact all matter.
We believe great decisions come from:
- Clear thinking
- Real understanding
- Honest expectations
- Knowing how people process pressure
- Having the right support at the right time
This brand stands for:
- Human understanding — not high-pressure sales
- Celebrating that different is powerful
- Clear communication
- Clarity over confusion
- Stability over overwhelm
- Decision support built around the individual
- Real strategy, real honesty
Traditional advisors often focus on transactions.
We focus on the person behind the decision.
Why This Brand Was Created
The foundation of this company comes from lived experience — adapting, observing, and learning how to succeed in environments not designed for different thinking styles.
A late understanding of neurodivergent thinking brought clarity:
Not only in understanding how one mind works —
but in recognizing how others think, communicate, and respond under pressure.
That awareness became a strength.
It made it possible to support people in ways traditional advisory models rarely do — especially those who feel overwhelmed by complexity, rushed timelines, or unclear expectations when facing big decisions
Over time, that perspective merged with decades of business expertise and global deal experience to form a new approach:
This isn’t therapy.
This isn’t sales.
This is high-level decision support rooted in clarity, lived experience, and honest guidance.
About The Founder — Jeff Thompson
Jeff Thompson has spent more than twenty years helping clients buy and sell over 300 businesses across 45+ states and 30+ countries — but clarity didn’t come from the deals alone.
It came the moment he understood why he sees the world differently.
Jeff realized something powerful:
People don’t stall because they’re incapable.
They stall because their thinking style, stress response, and communication needs aren’t understood.
And when someone finally understands how your mind works —
you make better decisions with less fear, less pressure, and fewer costly mistakes.
Jeff’s lived experience now fuels how he listens, communicates, and advises — helping clients process opportunities at their pace, in their language, and with respect for their bandwidth.
Because buying a business, selling one, choosing a franchise, or making a real estate investment isn’t only financial — it’s identity-shifting and life-changing.

🎯 Mission — Strategic Advisory
Our mission is to bring decision support shaped by neurodivergent thinking into industries that historically focus on transactions, not people

making decisions without clarity and support is.
We help people move forward with confidence, self-awareness, and strategies that protect not just the outcome — but their time, focus, and future.
