Sound Familiar?
You spend more time putting out fires each day
than you do moving the business forward.
With people in your corner, hard calls are easier.
When everything’s a fire, nothing can move forward.
and what can wait until Tuesday.
So they happen weeks late, and go worse than they needed to.
with care, and without blowing anything up.
You find out about the group chat after the damage is done.
before they cost you good people.

Success stories
I've been in a Mastermind with Brian since 2017. He is an amazing coach with a great heart. I can always rely on him to shoot me straight and “speak the truth in love” when necessary. A great coach will tell you what you may not want to hear, but really need to hear. He's a great reflective listener and is intentional to fully understand and clarify what you're trying to say.
The environment Brian fosters in a Mastermind is one full of intentionality, safety, challenge, and growth. The way he approaches questions (and teaches us to do the same) allows each person to truly get clear on what it is they're working through. The accountability, the vulnerability, and the intentionality behind his group is life changing.
I was intimidated when I first joined an established mastermind group with Brian. He immediately welcomed my perspective, encouraging me to speak confidently to my experience. He helped me navigate difficult and seemingly impossible scenarios: working in a family owned business, becoming a partner in the business, hiring and eventually firing my brother, all while continuing to guide me into the full business owner that I am today.
Brian is a powerhouse of wisdom and insight. His guidance is both practical and deeply encouraging. What makes [the mastermind] even more impactful is being surrounded by like-minded entrepreneurs. It creates an incredible environment where we can openly share ideas, ask questions, and support one another. It's is a game-changer!
Brian helped evaluate our systems / processes and educate us to be successful with delegation, which is imperative to hiring and building a successful team. He has been able to assist us to grow from a very small team to over 60 employees. He's an amazing problem solver and has been an enormous help to us for close to 10 years.
Prior to having Brian as our coach, we as a company had no clear vision. We were disorganized and lacked the tools to grow our business. We had reservations about if coaching would really be worth the investment. Brian was always accessible and objective in how he viewed our problems and the solutions he recommended, yet was always empathetic to the emotional aspect of business challenges.
I wasn't sure investing our company's resources in a coach was a good idea. Brian constantly pushed me to dig deeper and identify my strengths and weaknesses that were impacting our company's ability to grow. In a short time, I had a clear path charted out, and my anxiety was in the rearview mirror. Without hesitation, I recommend Brian and his team to anyone.
When I started working with Brian I was leading like a boss. With his guidance he helped me think like a leader. His personality, his approachability, and ability to cut through the weeds to see the real stumbling blocks we were facing were my favorite parts of working with him.
Brian's positivity and enthusiasm were contagious, and my business partner and I greatly enjoyed working with him. He is empathetic and relatable, and will help you be not just a better business owner, but a better person as well. He helped shepherd us through some major transitions by giving us frameworks to tackle our problems and pushing us with some tough questions.
Brian has an unassuming way of challenging you to be a better version of yourself. I had the privileged of Brian coaching me for six months. I had a specific goal in mind and with each session he unearthed the next step. Before our time together was complete, I had not only met my goal but accomplished countless other things. Both of my businesses skyrocketed while I worked with Brian, even though I primarily focused on one. I highly recommend that you hire Brian as your coach. Your progress will be astounding.
I worked with Brian leading our masterminds back when we has on the Entreleadership team. He was really good at keeping the mastermind groups on track and accountable to ourselves and each other. I really appreciated the insights and value he added to the meeting every single week!
