“A ship without a destination is ​like a person without goals.”

-Earl Nightingale

A business without the right tools and strategies is bound to go in ​circles.

VS

According to the ​SBA 80% of ​Small Businesses ​Fail Within the ​First 5 Years


Many business owners set ​sail without the proper ​tools, leading to a lack of ​direction and lack of cash ​flow...

Don't Get Lost at Sea...

There were 33,185,550 small businesses in the US as of 2023, ​making up 99.9% of US businesses. Smaller businesses with ​fewer than 10 employees are considered Microbusinesses and ​make up 92% of all businesses in the US, contributiing to an ​average of 38% of their owners’ household incomes. Without ​the right navigation tools, your business will struggle to ​generate consistent positive cash flow, pay high taxes, and ​face failure. Don’t let this be your fate.

6 Challenges Small Business ​Owners Face Everyday

Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 1

The business depends entirely on the owner, leading to burnout and low profitability. As the overworked "chief everything," they can't take breaks and end up in the same place year after year.

Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 2

They feel afraid, overwhelmed, and stressed, worried about providing a basic income. This stress affects their relationships and self-respect. They fear failure and worry about how they will be perceived by family and friends, and what they will do next.

Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 3

They struggle to understand what's working and what's not because financial reports are confusing and don't provide clear guidance on next steps.


Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 4


They want success but lack understanding of financial and strategic concepts, unsure how to increase revenue, profit, and cash flow. They seek trustworthy guidance for growing a successful business but don't know where to find it.


Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 5

A Catch-22: they need cash to grow but don't know how to get it. As experts in their craft, they want control over their time and income, but without cash, they end up spending more time on tasks outside their expertise, losing both time and money.

Black Circle Outline Blob Brush Line 6

They lack confidence in making high-level business decisions like reinvesting, hiring, or purchasing assets because they don't have a trusted advisor to help them evaluate potential scenarios and future impacts.

Can you relate to any of ​these challenges?
