I failed at five companies in my teens and twenties. Every single one.

People saw me as a "wantrepreneur" who couldn't actually lead. I didn't know if I had what it took to build something that lasted.

Everything changed when I got married and my wife agreed to let me quit my job for one more shot. I couldn't let this one fail.

So I read every business book I could find. I learned to grow a company the right way. That company grew 31% annually for 10 years straight, from $0 to $2M.

Here's what I learned: Most business owners get stuck at predictable revenue plateaus: $500K, $2M, $5M. The problem isn't strategy. It's isolation.

You're making critical decisions alone that could make or break your business. You need other successful owners who've been where you're going.

That's why I founded The Arena, a revenue accelerator for $200K-$10M business owners. We host peer groups of 6-8 founders who meet monthly (virtually) to solve real problems and break through plateaus together.

Our members grew an average of 15.5% last year:

- One member grew 77% and successfully exited
- Another navigated a difficult partner breakup and grew 23%
- An owner who thought "non-growth was fine" changed his mind and grew 17%

This isn't consulting. It's founders helping founders with battle-tested experience.

Ready to break past your next revenue plateau? Let's talk about whether The Arena is right for you. 

Schedule a call (https://calendly.com/the-arena-network/strategy-call) or send me a message.

The best time to solve tomorrow's problems is with today's peer group.
