Founder-Led Private Residential Transition Advisory
Sarasota, Florida
Silk Road Connection™ was created for clients who need more than a mover, a checklist, or a referral.
We serve as a private residential transition advisory, bringing structure, discretion, and founder-led oversight to complex moves involving multiple parties, elevated expectations, and valuable residences.
A Complementary Approach
Together, Susan and Roger bring a balanced perspective that is rarely found in residential transitions on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
One grounded in client advisory and relationship management.
The other in structure, sequencing, and delivery.
This combination ensures that every engagement is not only thoughtfully planned—but precisely executed.
A Founder-Led Advisory
Silk Road Connection™ operates as a private, founder-led transition advisory — working with a select number of clients across Sarasota, Naples, and Tampa to ensure each transition receives the attention, care, and oversight it requires.
Together, Susan and Roger bring a rare duality to private residential transition advisory — one that balances the intimacy of personal client relationships with the rigor of complex project management. Every engagement reflects that balance, delivered across Florida’s Gulf Coast with discretion, intention, and care.
Susan Michl
Founder & President
Susan Michl brings more than two decades of senior-level global business experience, where stakeholder alignment, discretion, timing, and execution were non-negotiable. At Silk Road Connection™, she applies that same discipline to private residential transitions, remaining personally engaged from the first conversation through final placement.
Her work has consistently involved navigating complexity—aligning stakeholders, managing high-expectation environments, and delivering outcomes where precision is non-negotiable.
She later founded a private personal services firm serving high-net-worth families, operating in highly detailed, trust-driven environments where discretion and consistency were essential.
At Silk Road Connection™, she remains personally engaged in every client relationship—overseeing each engagement from initial planning through final placement.
