Nick Bradley

Most founders leave millions on the table when they exit. Not because they built bad businesses - because they optimized for revenue instead of enterprise value.

I bridge the gap between founder-led businesses and investor-grade companies. I work exclusively with founders targeting 8-9 figure exits, and with PE firms and Family Offices optimizing their portfolio - applying the same strategic and operational frameworks to both.

The difference comes down to infrastructure. Buyers pay premiums for businesses that run on systems, not heroics. Where leadership is developed, not dependent on the founder. Where growth is predictable and margins are protected.

This isn’t 6-month “exit prep.” It’s 12-36 month transformation work - installing the operational rigor, financial discipline, and strategic planning that institutional buyers demand and PE sponsors require from portfolio companies.

My Background:

I spent 10 years as a Private Equity CEO and Operating Partner across 27 transactions totaling $5B+ in exits. I’ve sat on both sides of the table - building businesses and evaluating them for acquisition. I’m also the author of “Exit for Millions”, the #1 bestseller on building businesses for premium exits.

How We Work:

FOUNDERS

Building enterprise value: 12-month group mentoring program for scale-stage founders focused on creating predictable revenue, leveraged operations, and consistent cash flow.

Preparing for exit: 30-day intensive showing what your business is worth today, what it could be worth, what’s limiting value, and the roadmap to close the gap.

INVESTORS 

Operating partner engagements for portfolio companies needing growth, scale, turnaround work, or exit optimization.

Our mission: To build and install the infrastructure and discipline that compounds enterprise value.

Three words PE firms repeat constantly:

𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲.

If your business doesn’t tick all three boxes, they walk.

Here’s what each actually means:

𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲:

Not “we had a great quarter.” But “we can forecast revenue 90 days ahead within 10% accuracy.”

Revenue isn’t random. It’s systematic. You know where it comes from and when.

𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲:

Not “our founder landed an incredible deal.” But “our process generates 40-60 qualified leads monthly regardless of who’s running it.”

Success isn’t heroic. It’s documented. Anyone following the system gets the same result.

𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲:

Not “we’re growing fast by burning cash.” But “we’re profitable at scale and our unit economics prove it.”

Growth doesn’t require founder sacrifice. The business funds its own expansion.

PE firms are militaristic about this.

Randomness is risk. Uncertainty is risk. Risk kills multiples.

I’ve watched them walk from $30M EBITDA businesses because revenue was unpredictable.

And I’ve watched them pay premium for $8M EBITDA businesses because everything was systematic.

𝗜𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲? 𝗢𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲?
