We help business owners step out of the day-to-day by building repeatable systems, restructuring their teams, and installing real accountability - so the business can grow without them being the bottleneck.

Think: operators, not coaches.

Nope. Coaching is advice. Consulting is word vomit for pay. We do execution.

We come in like investors would - analyzing what’s working, what’s broken, and what’s missing - and then we help you build the actual backend that makes your business run cleaner and scale faster.

Not at all. Everything we offer on the advisory side is work and implementation with zero ownership required. We’ll treat your business like it’s our own - and you keep 100% control.

We do invest in and acquire businesses we like sometimes, so see our Holdings side if you're interested in exploring that type of relationship.

If you:

-Can’t take a real vacation

-Answer every client/fire/hire yourself

-Feel stuck trying to grow beyond where you’re at

-Are making good money but feel like you’re drowning

…then this is probably for you.

Our flagship engagement starts with a one-time $1,999 Business Audit, where we map out what’s broken, what’s working, and what your path forward looks like.

After that, we offer monthly implementation and support packages if you want us involved as operators.

You’re never locked in.

We work best with blue-collar and professional service businesses - contractors, agencies, studios, wellness companies, staffing firms, and B2B service providers.

If you sell a high-trust service, and operations or sales are your choke point, we can probably help.

Yes, but only if you want to.

We don’t push exits.

But if you are thinking about selling down the road, everything we build makes your company more valuable, more attractive, and easier to transition or sell.

We are able to build your operator package around helping you achieve the best possible exit.

Absolutely.

In fact, the earlier you get systems in place, the easier hiring and scaling will be.

Most of our clients are 1 – 20 person teams looking to stop being the center of everything and start building something that actually runs without them.

That’s our bread and butter.

We come in, assess what’s broken, restructure roles, install KPIs, and rebuild accountability from the ground up.

Your team doesn’t need to grow first. They need clarity and leadership.

We guarantee we’ll show up like owners, not just advisors.

If you take the process seriously, show up, and follow through - you’ll have a business that runs better, sells easier, and gives you more freedom.

That’s what we’re here for.

Yes.

We’re operators first.

We’ve built, bought, scaled, and sold companies ourselves. We act like investors even in our advisory work - because we analyze your business the same way an actual buyer or private equity group would.

But in some cases, we’ll also become investors - through our Holdings arm - when it makes sense, and only if both sides see long-term upside in this type of relationship.

Perfect. That’s the majority of our clients.

Everything we do on the advisory side is designed to help you grow without giving up control.

Think of us as the people who help make your business more valuable and depend on you less - even if you never plan to take any outside investment.

Yes. We can help structure the deal, clean up your financials, and even line up the buyer (through our broker network or our Holdings partners).

If you’re looking to raise capital, expand locations, or explore a sale - we can guide the strategy or sponsor the deal directly through our Holdings side.

This is the model we use for major growth plays on our Holdings side.

An independent sponsor is someone who sources, structures, and executes a business acquisition - but doesn’t use capital from a fund they directly manage to do it.

Instead, we bring the deal, negotiate the terms, and partner with investors who want access to small business buyouts. Sometimes these are individual investors, and sometimes these are institutional investors, like family offices or private equity firms.

We structure deals so everyone wins and so there is transparency of compensation structure on all sides - owners, operators, investors, and customers.

At the heart of everything we do is our mission - to empower business owners to have more freedom created by the businesses they have built.

The best part about our independent sponsor model is that we have the flexibility to bring a deal to the investor(s) that have the highest likelihood of closing and have the best fit for the owner of the company being bought out.

There are three main criteria we look at to determine best fit:

1. Available cash-on-hand (can we make a competitive offer with their funds?)

2. Track record (has someone involved had success as a partner to this type of industry before?)

3. Resources available (are they uniquely suited to help this company grow fast and sustainably?)

Yes. Through both our advisory and Holdings side, we help businesses expand:

-From local to regional

-From regional to statewide

-From statewide to national

We’ve helped businesses set up new branches, scale operations across multiple geographies, and develop systems to maintain quality and profitability at scale.

We look for service-based businesses with:

-Strong demand (people want it)

-Good history (3+ years profitable)

-Low customer churn (they stay and pay for a while)

-Operational pain points we can fix

-Growth potential through geographic expansion or bolt-on services

We love companies in skilled trades, health & wellness, manufacturing, and professional services.

Not at all.

Some deals are minority, advisory-driven investments.

Others are majority buyouts where we lead the roll-up strategy. We structure every deal around what’s best for the business and the people inside it.

Sometimes that means full control. Sometimes it means strategic partnership with operators still at the wheel.

We do both.

Through Holdings, we sometimes invest our own capital - but we also have relationships with limited partners and family offices who co-invest on deals we source and lead.

That gives us flexibility to structure creative transactions that most traditional PE firms can’t touch.

We focus on companies with $500K–$2.5M in EBITDA, but we’re open to strategic bolt-ons or tuck-ins that are smaller if the fit is right.

The sweet spot for full acquisitions is businesses doing $1M–$10M in annual revenue with clear expansion potential.

You’re exactly who we’re looking for.

Whether through a partnership, growth capital, or structured support, we specialize in helping great operators build companies that can scale without losing soul.

Absolutely.

That’s what Scale for Sale is for.

We’ll help you get your business running like an asset - systemized, documented, and financially clean - so when the time comes, you’re holding the cards, not a buyer.

Yes.

We regularly partner with other investors, dealmakers, and strategic buyers - both to co-invest in deals and to help them find, evaluate, or operate businesses.

If you’re an investor looking for strong deal flow or operator-led businesses, we should talk.

A roll-up is when we buy multiple businesses in the same or complementary industries, combine them under one umbrella, and build something way more valuable than the parts alone.

Think of it like a cheeseburger. A patty is good. So is a bun, or lettuce or tomato.

But when you put it all together - it’s a full meal. It’s premium. It’s worth way more than just the ingredients.

That’s what we do with businesses.

We combine operations. No more having three bookkeepers doing the same job at three different companies. We consolidate admin, marketing, sales, finance - lean and clean.

We cross-sell. Got an HVAC company? Cool. Now imagine bolting on plumbing, electrical contracting, and smart home integration - all served to the same customer base.

We increase the multiple. A small business might sell for 3x profit. A platform company built from multiple integrated locations and services? Now you’re talking maybe 6–8x.

We build a story strategic buyers and PE funds want. Clean books. Integrated services. Multi-market coverage. Predictable cash flow. That’s the cheeseburger they’re hungry for.

Yes.

Our team has worked on roll-ups of businesses across industries (including wellness, home services, healthcare, staffing, and more).

We understand how to integrate systems, cross-sell services, consolidate admin ops, and increase the multiple. If your company could be the foundation - or a key bolt-on - in a larger platform, we know how to make that happen.
