About Ryder
Where the Science of Business meets the Art of Living Fully.
Ryder exists to help founders build that next version of their company, without losing sight of why they started.
The heart of Ryder
Founders are at the heart of everything we build.Because behind every business is a human story.

Our founders' story
Two different journeys.One shared belief.
Ryder Consulting Group was founded by Billy Fowler and Carolina “Caro” Tolliver, partners in life and business, united by a belief that business success should create greater freedom, opportunity, and fulfillment.
Billy's journey took him from Wall Street to building, operating, and selling businesses. Through decades of experience, he recognized a recurring challenge: founders could build successful companies yet remain responsible for nearly every decision.
He developed The Ryder Method to help them find what's holding their businesses back, fix the right things in the right order, and turn strategy into meaningful action.
Caro brought a complementary perspective. With a career in brand strategy, digital transformation, and customer experience, she understood that even the best business framework must be intuitive, engaging, and supported by an experience people can actually use.
Together, they saw an opportunity to reimagine business coaching.
By combining Billy's methodology with Caro's vision for technology and human-centered experiences, they are building a connected system of expert guidance, practical implementation, and founder community.
Their shared ambition goes beyond building better companies.
It's about helping founders become better leaders, create businesses that thrive beyond their constant involvement, and build lives they truly enjoy.
Build the Company. Become the Owner.
What we believe
The business is onlyhalf of the story.
The Science of Business
The strategy, financial clarity, people, systems, decisions and operating discipline that make a company stronger.
The Art of Living Fully
The vision, identity, leadership and personal alignment that help a founder define what success is meant to make possible.
These are not separate ambitions. They are two parts of one future.
