23% of owners rank cash flow as their single biggest challenge right now. Inflation is close behind at 31%. And 74% of owners are turning to non-bank lenders for working capital.

You built this business by being the best doer in the room. Best closer. Best technician. Best fixer. That skill got you to $500K. It will not get you to $3M.

I have shared this sobering statistic many times since uncovering it about 5 years ago. 80% of businesses that list their business to sell, never sell. In fact, 92% of all small businesses close and only 5% ever actually sell.
Trusted by owners who scaled past $10M and beyond.
