Every good idea starts with a good conversation.

…and maybe a bit of smoke in the air

I’m Jon Kohlmeier. I build RevOps systems that help teams work with more clarity, connection, and craft.

Puffs of Smoke is my study — a place for reflection and slow thinking, where curiosity lingers and half-formed ideas find shape.

Here, I write to make sense of work, technology, and the quiet, human moments that hold it all together.

Pull up a chair.

This is where I think out loud about work, faith, and the craft of making things better. Most of what I write starts with a good conversation, a quiet evening in the study, or a bit of smoke curling toward the ceiling.
