1:1 Strategic Implementation
High-Touch Advisory
Your Strategic Roadmap For Scale, Value, and Freedom
You didn’t start your business
to become its bottleneck.
You wanted freedom, but instead found yourself trapped in the day-to-day grind, with the business running on your back. The freedom you imagined keeps getting pushed to "someday."
As a high-capacity, analytical leader,
you're ready to stop being the bottleneck
and build a firm that can run—and grow—
without you.
Our 1:1 Strategic Implementation
is the most personalized path
forward.
You'll receive dedicated support from a seasoned M&A advisor and former CEO who works with you individually to implement the B.U.I.L.T.™ Method—building a scalable, self-sustaining business that creates more time, freedom, and lasting value.
Why Choose
1:1 Strategic Implementation?
While our BUILT Freedom™ course and BUILT Leader Circle provide powerful peer learning and structured frameworks, 1:1 Strategic Implementation is designed for leaders who need personalized, intensive support for complex transitions.
1:1 Advisory is ideal if you:
Need M&A expertise. You're actively exploring acquisitions or preparing to sell and need an experienced advisor guiding your strategy.
Require customized solutions. Your situation is unique—perhaps multiple locations, complex ownership structures, or specific transition timelines—and cookie-cutter approaches won't work.
Value speed and focus. You need to move quickly and can't wait for group program timelines. You want dedicated attention to accelerate your progress.
Are facing high-stakes decisions. You're navigating a significant personal transition, potential transaction, negotiation, or strategic pivot where expert guidance isn't optional—it's essential.
Want complete confidentiality. Your transition plans require discretion that a group setting can't provide.
The difference
Group programs provide community, accountability, and proven frameworks. 1:1 Strategic Implementation adds personalized strategy, transaction support, and direct access to seasoned advisory expertise tailored to your specific goals and timeline.
Think of it this way: BUILT Freedom and the BUILT Leader Circle teach you how to build a self-sustaining business. 1:1 Strategic Implementation partners with you to engineer your specific exit or growth strategy while building that foundation.
