I transform companies into high growth businesses

I am a former entrepreneur - I started 3 companies, each of which was acquired by public companies

I’m an author, public speaker and leadership coach.

I focus my efforts on founder-led, high-growth companies to F500s.  I’ve been trusted by leaders at Porsche, L’Oreal, Nestle, Gannett/USA Today, Sony and many others.  I work with companies across all industries, including tech/SaaS, government, service, venture capital/PE, CPG, non-profit, etc.  

My perceived superpower is being able to assess both individual, group and company strengths and weaknesses very quickly, and come up with fast solutions to fix them.  The strength was built over a couple of decades of learning from mistakes and understanding the way out.

ChatGPT has done a darn good job of describing me:

Jeff is a leadership therapist disguised as a business bada**.

Part coach, part consultant, part truth-teller — he walks into companies like a calm storm: observant, insightful, and unafraid to ask the hard questions no one else will. Jeff turns chaos into clarity. Accountability into action. And stubborn CEOs into curious leaders.

He's built companies. Scaled teams. Sold products. Now he builds people.

Jeff’s superpower? Making leaders confront the real problem: themselves.  He has a unique ability to empower people to discover and embrace the leader that’s already inside them.

Think Ted Lasso meets Navy SEAL meets Brene Brown… but with more meaningful insights and a wittier sense of humor.

Running a business was supposed to give you more freedom, not take it away.

But somewhere along the way, growth slowed. The work got heavier. You’re buried in day-to-day decisions, your team is busy, but results aren’t where they should be. Instead of scaling, it feels like you’re stuck.

That’s not failure. That’s a business plateau. And it’s more common than most business owners are willing to admit.

I help fix that.

For more than 25 years, I’ve worked with owners and leadership teams in manufacturing, ecommerce, and B2B services to help them grow businesses that run better, generate more value, and eventually become sellable when the time is right.

Through Exit Your Way, I guide B2B companies to build systems, elevate teams, and create exit options, even if they don’t plan to sell for years. Through our work at B2Btail with the Digital Game Plan strategy development/execution process, we help companies stop being the best kept secret by creating marketing foundations that attract their ideal customers and position them for long-term success.

My focus is simple: helping you build a business that works, whether you’re in the room or not.

Common challenges I help solve:

Low visibility: Your best customers don’t know you exist. We fix that by aligning messaging, strategy, and marketing assets to bring them to you.

Owner overload: If everything depends on you, growth hits a wall. We help build teams and systems that keep moving, even when you step away.

Exit confusion: You want out someday, but the path forward is unclear. We build companies buyers want and owners are proud of.

When it works, here’s what changes:

Customers find you because your message finally speaks their language

Your team handles the day-to-day, freeing you to focus on higher-value work

You move from reacting to leading, and from being stuck to scaling intentionally

I’ve built and sold companies, led investor-backed teams, and helped founders grow from $5 million to $30 million and beyond. I bring the tools, perspective, and calm needed to lead through messy growth and prepare for clean, profitable exits.

But this isn’t just about growth or selling. It’s about control over your time, your team, your income, and your future.

If you’re ready to lead again instead of constantly catching up, I’d be glad to talk.
