A profitable business with untapped potential.

Trae came to us with a business doing around $1.7M. The team wasn’t reliable and he was looking for direction, structure and a more controlled way to grow.

The right structure to grow.

We mapped out a clear plan, improved client flow, used data more effectively and hired a salesperson to take Trae out of day-to-day sales.

Rapid growth and new challenges.

The business scaled quickly, reaching $3.5M over the next two years. With that came more complexity, more people and more moving parts to manage.

Knowing when bigger wasn’t better.

Trae realised he could run a bigger business, but it wasn’t what he wanted long term. The profit was there, but the day-to-day didn’t align with the life he wanted to build.

A business that fits the life he wants.

We resized and refined the business, settling at around $2.5M with the right team, structure and workload to match. Now, Trae works around 3.5 days a week and at just 25, he’s purchased his dream farm with the time, money and headspace to actually enjoy it.

The outcome

A more profitable business.
A stronger team. A better life.
