We redesign
businesses
to carry themselves
Whether you want to grow, exit, or take back your time, you need to build a business that runs without you
You're the founder of an established business, and you want your business to support the next phase of your life
You've built a great business but it's weighing on you more than it should. Everything is on your shoulders, and while that was fine at the beginning, now you want to grow, exit, or take back your time, and the way your business operates is holding you back.
This isn't you being a poor leader. Nor is it something you just have to suck up. This is structural strain. The needs of your business have outgrown its original design. That's something we can help you change.
Your business probably looks like this
- 20+ years in business
- 20–150 full time employees
- $5M–$150M turnover
- Privately or family owned
- You still make many (all) the decisions
- Your systems are under strain
You're tired of working harder, showing up first, leaving last.
Things aren't getting easier. Something needs to change
For business owners ready to exit
You want to step out without your business falling over, but you're holding everything together and you can't put it down.
For business owners tired of being your business
How would it feel for your business to stand alone? To live life with a great business, not have business be your life?
For business owners ready to scale without sacrificing life
You've built something real. Now it's time to scale beyond a business that still depends on you.
This probably isn't your first time trying to step back from your business, but it didn't stick
By the time exhausted business owners talk to us, they've talked to experts. Worked with coaches. Hired a GM. Nothing did the job.
Truth is, your business was built around you, and until that changes, nothing sticks. It still depends on you.
Here's how we helpMost advisors only work on parts of your business. We hold the whole alongside you
You've worked with a lot of advisors. Accountants, lawyers, consultants, specialists. Each one sees a piece of the business and gives you advice in isolation. Sometimes that advice helps. Sometimes it conflicts. But at the end of the day, you're still the one pulling it all together.
We work across your entire business system – structure, decisions, people, performance and experience – holding the whole alongside you so everything can move together.
We understand owner operator businesses because we've been in the family business trenches
We learned to redesign businesses the hard way from building and running our own. Scaling from $30m to $300m and then exiting. We've been the people trying to translate advice, carry the load, and make the hard calls.
That's why our approach isn't piecemeal tinkering. We don't hand you a plan and leave you to implement. We work alongside you, inside your business – sleeves rolled up – sharing the load while we redesign how your business operates until it no longer depends on you.
