The Problem

Ownership can be lonely.

You make the hardest decisions on your own.
Advice is everywhere, but little of it fits your business.
The business still depends on you more than it should.

Few people around you face the decisions you face every day, so the weight comes home with you at night. When a business makes too little profit and depends too heavily on its owner, ownership starts to feel more like a burden than a reward. We call that the Poverty of Ownership.

Owners rarely get a room full of peers who understand the pressure, and almost never get one paired with a proven framework. A Cohort gives you both.

You shouldn’t have to choose between making money and sleeping at night.

Your Guide

You don’t have to build it alone.

We work with owners and leaders who are tired of carrying the whole business on their shoulders. We know lasting improvement comes from fixing the right things in the right order, and that owners grow faster alongside people who understand the job.

Every Cohort draws on the Seven Pillars framework and the ProfitMAX Coaching System: 80 domains, 655 strategies and 4,509 proven tactics. With one priority domain in each of your three pillars, there are 6,090 distinct combinations, each one a different way to focus your work. Your OSSA™ results shape your Cohort Focus Plan, so your 26 weeks go where they’ll do the most good.

What’s Included

Structured for lasting impact.

26 weeksTwo quarters of structured development.
Three pillarsMindset, Foundations, plus one pillar you choose.
Real peersOwners and leaders from other companies. Cohorts are always open, never private, because the peer connection is the point.

Why This Order

Every Cohort starts with Mindset & Foundations.

Lasting improvement starts with how the owner thinks and how the business is built. Every Cohort begins there, then goes deep on the pillar that matters most to you, where the earlier work makes every improvement stick.

Proof

What owners and leaders say

“Everything now has a reason.”

The Seven Pillars helped us see the whole business clearly. We changed how we lead, prioritize, and measure progress, and our decisions now have a clear purpose and greater outcomes.

Brian S.Business Owner

“The changes are still paying off.”

Once we saw that our challenges were structural, not merely operational, everything changed. Addressing People and Process in the correct sequence created improvements that continue long after engagement. We have moved from survival to thriving!

Sarah L.Independent Pharmacy Owner

“Our team learned to rise together.”

Our team has transformed from a disconnected group into a unified, mission-driven team. We lead with greater confidence, clarity, and shared purpose. We continue to achieve results we never thought were possible! Now, We Rise Together.

Questions

Questions & answers

Can we run a private Cohort for our company?

No, by design. The value of a Cohort comes from peers outside your company. For private work, see 1:1 Strategic Coaching or a private workshop under Customized Engagements.

Can I bring members of my team?

Yes. Team pricing lowers the cost of each seat when more than one person from your company joins the same Cohort.

How much time does it take each week?

One 90-minute group session each week. Between sessions, you take what you’ve learned back into your business and put it to work. That real-world application is where the results come from, and how long it takes is unique to each business.

How do I choose my third pillar?

Your OSSA™ results show which pillar will move your business most right now, and we’ll help you decide. Take the OSSA™ →

What if the group doesn’t fill?

Every Cohort runs with a minimum of four participants. If a group doesn’t reach its minimum, we may offer enrolled participants the same work one-on-one at the same price as scheduling allows, or a place in the next group.

Can I take a second Cohort?

A Cohort is designed as a one-time journey. Your next step is a Sprint in a new pillar. If you need specialized help outside our standard offerings, you can always schedule a private conversation.

A Cohort is a one-time journey, not a series. Graduates keep building through Sprints in new pillars, with graduate savings when they continue promptly, or with the whole system applied one-on-one to their business.

Your next season of growth doesn’t have to be a solo effort.

Every business owner deserves Profitability and Peace of Mind. Your first step is simple.
