We are focused on transformation, not information. If you do the work and don’t see at least a 10x return on your investment, simply ask for your money back. By “return”, we mean an increase in business valuation (as measured in Value Builder Score), revenue, profits or cash flow.

If you are looking for all of the fine print, there isn’t any. We are aligned with your goals and even though we know some might take advantage of this offer, we know most will reap the rewards.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

We help business owners unleash your highest potential business value and put you in a position to exit at the highest price so you they can fully achieve personal and financial freedom.

We only work with business owners who are ready to grow and/or exit, is coachable and decisive. We absolutely reject business owners that don’t know what they want from their business, won’t do the work required to exit at the top or won’t take responsibility for their own actions. 

Without our help, we know that most business owners will continue to struggle to create a sellable business, feel tied to their business, and never realize their financial freedom. Our programs were built by experienced business owners for business owners so we know that remaining in the same state will continue to make your life a living hell because you; 

  • won’t be able to detach from your business to focus on what you love doing;
  • will continue to be “absent” on family vacations (or never take one);
  • can’t afford to provide your family with the sort of experiences (travel, etc.) they dream about;
  • will have to continue to deal with the stress of employees, vendors and customer issues on daily basis.

But with our tools, resources and support, you will;

  • make a bigger impact in the world by putting your time towards projects that gives you purpose;
  • encourage your family to dream away knowing you can deliver for them;
  • finally gain control over your business (and time);
  • stress less about the business and your wellbeing;
  • have better mental and physical health giving your more energy to live your life to fullest.

We work with business owners / leaders of established companies with annual revenues from $250K to $25mm who want a strategic partner to help them accelerate their growth and/or plan for an exit. We can help all types of businesses, but we have deeper expertise with B2B companies.

Currently we are focused on business owners but based on popular demand, we are revising our programs to work with full leadership teams. Stay tuned for more updates.

Planning for Exit, whether it’s a sale to a third-party, selling to your employees, or stepping back to become the “Chairman”, it’s one of the important decisions a business owner will make in their lifetime. 

Recent studies show that 66% of the current American business market is owned by Baby Boomers, who are set to transition over the next zero to ten years. Statistics also show that only 20%-30% of businesses that go to market actually sell; leaving up to 80% of those without solid options to harvest their wealth and ensure economic continuity into the next generation. 

And if you do decide to sell, unfortunately, many owners get taken advantage of because you’re typically dealing with sophisticated buyers who acquire companies for a living. Their incentive is to get your company for the lowest price and best terms – for them. Exactly the opposite of what you want and deserve!  Many business owners retain the big M&A advisory firms thinking that they’ll look out for you – but let’s be clear, they are more beholden to the buyers than the sellers even though they’ll tell you otherwise.

That’s why it’s our mission is to help you maximize your business value, get the best price and terms and control the process.

Regardless of whether you want to exit in the future, or not, our focus is on helping you grow faster and build a stronger company. Unfortunately, not putting in place an “Exit Plan” as part of the day to day growing of your business will put you and everything you’ve built for you, your family and your employees at risk in the event one of the “5 D’s” becomes a reality (Disability, ​Divorce, ​Death, Departure or ​Dissolution).

An owner who is “ready” with an attractive business greatly increases the odds that the business will survive a transition of hands so our process works on accelerating your growth AND strengthening the business along the way.

Our Catapult Method is delivered globally via video conference using tools such as Zoom. We offer many on-demand workshops that are prerecorded so that you can access them immediately whenever you need giving you more flexibility to schedule the time to focus on your business. The Tools and Resources are also available any time through our Customer Portal. We do occasionally offer live in-person programs and workshops to allow us to focus intensely on your business. These in-person programs may be included in your Membership Level at no additional charge.

Business owners benefit greatly from being a group of other business leader that share similar issues and have similar constraints of resources. We will pair you with other non-competitive business owners but since you will be sharing confidential and sensitive information about your business, if you feel that there is a conflict of interest, please speak with your Customer Success Manager and we will try to get you moved to a different group.

Independent surveys of our members show that on average:

  • Richer exits where the business value nearly doubles. Participants in our program that execute on the Exit Plan see an average increase in valuation of 76%, and many 100% (double) or greater in a short period of time – typically 12 months of less – Because we focus you on the biggest drivers of business value.
  • Faster growth with more consistent profits and cashflow. Members in our program break through the barriers of growth and consistently double their rate of historical growth while throwing out more cash to reinvest in the business. 
  • More free time – an extra day and a half per week. After a few short months, our owners get back an average of 14.5 hours in their week by strategically working on one aspect of their business each week. Avoid the day-to-day frazzle and learn how to work on needle-moving parts of your business.

We have similarities to many other coaching programs such as Gazelles by Verne Harnish and some overlap with programs such as Strategic Coach by Dan Kennedy and EOS (we’re big fans of all three) but offer distinct advantages over each one of those programs. 

What makes us the most unique is that we are focused on transformation, not information. And because of this, we are the only similar that offers your money back if we don’t produce results.

There are lots of great programs in the industry that might fit your needs, so click here to see an analysis of competitive offerings.

Our membership lasts for as long as you find value in our tools, resources and coaching but we typically see that owners need at least 12 months to see the kind of results we detailed above. Many owners can see 10X returns well before that time frame, and some may take much longer, but in the end, it is your ability to execute that will make the difference in your results and the speed for which you achieve them. Because of this, unless you signup for one of our kickstart programs, we ask you to commit for at least one year.

If you sign up for our one-on-one coaching, your coach will be a successful entrepreneur with many years’ experience running a company and implementing the tools and concepts of our Programs in their own business.

All of our coaches continue to run their own businesses and are active participants in our Program. Coaches are selected through a rigorous screening process and extensively trained in the delivery of the materials.

What makes us the most unique is that we are focused on transformation, not information. The Catapult Method and foundational Pillars of Power was developed by successful business owners that started, scaled and sold several companies without raising gobs of outside capital. Face it, it is a lot easier to grow quickly if you are raising outside capital, much harder if you have to grow using your own resources and ingenuity. So we’ve used our own experiences coupled with studying the fastest-growing firms that did the same, and packaged the wisdom into micro-learning, tools, resources and support to help you grow and maximize the value of your firm.

Fees for our Membership Programs are paid in advance but on occasion we will offer a short term payment plan for an additional fee.

What makes us the most unique is that we are focused on transformation, not information. And because of this, we are the company that offers your money back if we don’t produce results for you. Fees for the membership levels are paid upfront but not at risk if you don’t see a return of at least 10X within 12 months. Of course, you have to do the work, and if you do, we stand behind our work. See more details here.
