Small Business Owners

There are four stages of business ownership we like to call “Wunder, Blunder, Thunder, Plunder.” Research shows that most business owners fail to successfully transition through all four stages and beyond. We believe it’s because they fail to plan sooner than later. One of the greatest secrets of successful “Quiet Millionaire” business owners is operating inside their strength zone and outside their comfort zone. We expand your comfort zone, so you can maximize the value of your efforts.

We help you understand the timelines of key events, balance your personal and business finances, and have an exit strategy when ready.
