Who Can Help Unprofitable Renfaires?

Is there anyone in the Renfaire world that is like Marcus Lemonis (The Profit) or Robert Irvine (Restaurant Impossible)?  Someone who can advise smaller or new Renfaires on what to change to become profitable in their 2nd or 1st year?

This person would need experience in starting faires, coordinating finances, finding sponsors, choosing grounds, showing how to lay out a village, picking the right kind of performers, not getting too many of the same kinds of vendors, charging the right amount to get in & of course pursuing the right kind of ADVERTISING.

I'm sure this person would want a fee or would want to invest in the faire & get a percentage of the profits.  He or she would have to be able to travel around their region or country, be available for monthly meetings (via Zoom if it's far from home) and be able to keep the board on course.

Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller?
