Buying a business with an SBA loan, by yourself, is a 20-month full-time job.

A real team does it for about 40 to 50 hours of your time, total. This page shows you every single thing it takes, and exactly who does it.

Book the call No pitch to survive. Just your numbers and your deal.
The one thing to believe

A team that does the work while you make the decisions is the only path that gets a first-time SBA buyer to a closed deal without it becoming a second full-time job.

Here is the truth nobody says out loud.

That 20-month number is not my opinion. It is the median search timeline straight from Stanford's 2024 study. Run the hours and it lands north of 2,000, and past 5,000 if you go hard.

Right now, somewhere, a smart and capable person is opening a spreadsheet to start doing exactly that. In about 14 months, most of them will still be opening that spreadsheet. They will not own anything.

That is not because they were lazy or dumb. It is because nobody told them the truth before they started.

Buying a business with an SBA loan is not one thing you learn. It is seven or eight expert jobs happening at the same time, on the most expensive purchase of your life, while a seller and a bank wait on you.

And almost every "done-for-you" program built for people like you does not actually do those jobs. They hand you a login, a deal feed, and a checklist. Then they watch you do the work.

The courses. The newsletters. The dashboards. The $10,000 to $15,000 programs that promise to hand you a business. Read the fine print and it is the same picture every time. Information on one side. You, doing all the work, on the other.

By the time you reach the bottom of this page, one thing will be obvious. Not because I argued you into it, but because you will have seen all of it.

There is no version of this where you do it all yourself and it goes well. A course will not get you there. And the other "done-for-you" guys do not actually do it.

A real team does. For about 40 to 50 hours of your time, total. That is what this page is about.

Before I show you the work

Picture the other side of it.

Picture the day you close. You are signing. The business is yours. And here is the strange part. You spent maybe 40 hours of your own time across the entire thing.

Not 40 hours a week. About 40 hours total, spread over months, mostly on a few calls and a string of simple yes-or-no decisions.

You did not learn seven jobs. You did not send 500 cold emails. You did not build a bank package at midnight or chase a silent broker for three weeks.

A team carried all of that. You made the decisions and showed up to close.

Hold that picture in your head. Now let me walk you through everything that has to happen between here and there, and exactly who does it.

The number that ends the debate

One number decides everything before we go any further.

A first-time buyer doing this alone is looking at close to 20 months of full-time work. That is the median from Stanford's 2024 search study, not a guess.

Do the math. At a light 30 hours a week that is over 2,000 hours. At the 60 hours a week the practitioner guides cite, it is over 5,000.

Now look at the three paths in front of you.

Your pathYour hours to close one dealWhat drives it
A real done-for-you team (Regalis Capital) ~40 to 50 hours total. Sometimes under 20 to 30. You set your buy box, watch short vetted videos, say yes or no, attend the key calls, and sign. The team does everything else.
The "done-for-you" coaching tier ~200 to 1,000 hours Templates, scripts, a dashboard, and a 1:1 review call. You still do the outreach, the analysis, the bank package, and the closing yourself.
A pure course, fully on your own Thousands of hours (2,000 to 6,000+) over 12 to 36 months You do every job alone. Most people who start never close.
Regalis Capital team~40 to 50 hrs
"Done-for-you" coaching tier~200 to 1,000 hrs
Pure course, on your own2,000 to 6,000+ hrs

Same business at the end. The only difference is how much of your one non-refundable resource you burn to get there.

Stop on that top row. 40 to 50 hours, spread across a multi-month deal, is a few hours a month of your attention. The middle row is a second job. The bottom row is your life for two to three years.

You can earn back the $15,000. You cannot earn back 2,000 hours of your life.

Now I know exactly what you are thinking looking at that top row. 40 to 50 hours. That cannot be right. So let me tell you why it is. It is not magic and it is not a trick.

Buying a business is roughly 7 expert jobs and a few thousand hours of work. That work does not disappear when you hire us. It moves.

A team of 100-plus people does it instead of you. The hours still happen. They just happen on our side of the desk, not yours.

Your 40 to 50 hours are the only hours that actually need YOU in the room: the buy box, the yes or no on each vetted deal, the calls that matter, and your signature. Everything that does not need you, we take.

The mistake almost every first-time buyer makes

Let me tell you how this usually goes.

It starts with someone capable. Maybe a senior operator, an engineer, a sales leader, somebody who has run hard things and won. They decide they are done building someone else's company. They want to own.

They do the smart thing. They read everything. They buy the course or join the program. They believe what almost everybody believes at the start: "I am sharp, I figure things out, I can run this myself."

So they start. And at first it feels fine. They learn to read a deal. Then SBA loan math. Then valuation. Then how to write a Letter of Intent that does not get them killed in negotiation. Then how to build a business plan a bank will actually fund.

Each one alone is learnable. That was never the problem.

The problem is they are not doing them one at a time. They are sourcing deals while analyzing a different deal while chasing a broker on a third while a lender waits on a bank package they have not finished. All at once. After their real job.

Then the wall.

A deal they actually wanted dies because they were too slow to follow up. A second one dies in diligence after they had already paid for it. A lender goes quiet and they do not know why. Months pass. The spreadsheet has 90 dead deals in it and zero closings.

And here is the moment. The one that changes everything. They realize it was never a willpower problem. They did not fail because they were not smart enough. They worked incredibly hard.

They failed because one person cannot be a sourcing rep and a financial analyst and a valuation team and an SBA packager and a deal lawyer and a negotiator and a closing coordinator at the same time. Nobody can. Not because you are not capable. Because it is seven full-time jobs and you are one person.

That is the epiphany. The skill was never the bottleneck. The number of jobs was.

Once you see that, the whole question changes. It stops being "how do I learn all of this?" It becomes "who already does all of this, so I do not have to?"

That question has exactly one good answer, and it is the reason this page exists.

If you believe one thing on this page

A real team that does the work is the only path that gets a first-time SBA buyer to a closed deal without the work becoming a second full-time job.

Not a course. Not a community. Not a "done-for-you" program that is really a dashboard with coaching calls attached. A team that does the work while you make the decisions.

That is the whole thing. Everything else on this page is just proof of that one sentence.

And this is not a theory.

A working machine, not a slideshow. So let me prove it. I am going to walk you through the entire life of a deal, start to close.

At every stage you see what the team does, what the so-called "done-for-you" guys actually do instead, and what that exact piece would cost you if you did it alone.

Watch the same pattern repeat. A team does the work. You make the decision. Stage after stage after stage.

The next 27 stages

We did not summarize it. We laid it bare.

This is the full life of a deal, start to close.

Now here is the one fact to hold onto as you read, and I want you to read it twice. Your only standing job across this entire process is roughly 1 hour a week building rapport with the seller, and only once a deal is under offer.

That is the whole ask. Everything else is a short yes or no, or a call we schedule, prep, and run.

Let's go.

0 Stage 0Knowing what you can actually afford You alone5 to 15 hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We take your full picture: experience, industry, geography, capital, and goals.
  • We underwrite you the same way the big SBA banks do, then reverse-solve from how bankable you are to the biggest deal you can realistically finance.Then we turn that into the maximum cash flow your deal can sit on, your real SDE ceiling.
  • We run it through our Deal Value Calculator, built on SBA standard, which mirrors how SBA underwriters actually size a deal.
  • We anchor to the rules that make a deal fundable: at least 10% equity injection of total project cost, debt service coverage of at least 1.15x, and loan proceeds capped at the independent business valuation.
  • We price in the cash cushion the lender wants after close, usually 10% to 20% post-close liquidity, so it is baked in from day one.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Hand you a generic affordability worksheet and tell you to "figure out your budget."
  • The coaching tier eyeballs your numbers on a call, gives a rough range, then you self-assess.
  • None of them underwrite you to real bank standards or solve for your ceiling.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Learn SBA loan sizing well enough to trust your own number. 5 to 15 hours, plus the risk of getting it wrong.
  • Understand equity-injection rules, debt service coverage math, and the valuation cap on loan proceeds.
  • Read your own personal financial statement the way a credit officer will.

Get it wrong and you chase deals you can never finance, then burn months before a lender finally tells you no.

1 Stage 1Building your buy box You alone5 to 10 hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We run an onboarding call and build your buy box across four pillars: target industry, target area, target sizing, and what you actually qualify for.
  • We help you pick which industries to chase and screen out anything that does not fit your background or your financing.
  • We land a concrete target market, area, and size, all grounded in the real underwriting from Stage 0, not a guess.
  • We screen out businesses that need a professional license to own, because those do not fit the buyer profile.
  • We set up how we communicate, get you into Slack, and request the documents we need for the next step.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • "Define your buy box" is a worksheet or a coaching prompt. You fill it in yourself.
  • No financial reverse-solve tying your buy box to what you can fund.
  • You guess at industries, sizing, and geography with no backstop.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Research industries, screen out non-viable categories, and define a buy box yourself. 5 to 10 hours.
  • Know how to match deal size to your financing and which categories SBA lenders avoid.

A sloppy buy box means months chasing deals you were never going to fund, and you find out at the end, not the start.

2 Stage 2Making you look like a serious buyer You alone10 to 20 hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We build your website so you show up as a credible, serious buyer to brokers and sellers.
  • We build your buyer profile, the document brokers and sellers use to size you up, and put your lender pre-qualification letter inside it to push you through screening.
  • We create "the look" so you get taken seriously by people who otherwise ignore unproven first-time buyers.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Tell you to write your own buyer bio from a template. No website. No professional perception layer.
  • They hand you a tool. You are the system.
  • You show up to brokers as exactly what most first-timers look like: unproven and unfunded. So you get ignored.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Build a website, write a buyer profile, and assemble credibility assets. 10 to 20 hours.
  • Bring positioning, copywriting, web-build skill, and a real sense of what brokers and lenders look for.

Brokers ignore buyers who do not look fundable. Show up wrong and your deal flow dies before a single deal reaches you.

3 Stage 3Building the systems behind the deal You alone10 to 20 hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We organize your deal folders and document structure, build the deal documents you will need, and set up your data room.
  • We set up your email system and outreach infrastructure for organized follow-up.
  • We stand up all the back-end systems and automations our team uses to stay on top of your deal flow, and the tracking that follows every deal end to end.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Give you a dashboard or a CRM login and call it "systems."
  • You organize your own folders, build your own data room, and track your own documents.
  • There is no back-end coordination behind you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Stand up folders, a data room, a tracking system, and outreach infrastructure, plus ongoing upkeep. 10 to 20 hours.
  • Bring deal-document organization, data-room setup, and pipeline discipline.

Disorganized buyers lose deals to dropped follow-ups and missing documents, and they never see it coming.

4 Stage 4Getting you pre-qualified You alone5 to 15 hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We take your documents, primarily your personal financial statement, and go to an SBA lender or loan broker on your behalf.
  • We present your financial picture the way a credit officer reads it and get you pre-qualified, usually the same way we underwrote you internally.
  • We get a pre-qualification letter you can use as a credibility asset inside your buyer profile and lean on with brokers and sellers.Quick honesty note: there is no formal SBA pre-qual letter in standard 7(a) lending. This is a lender's soft read on your personal financial statement, and we treat it as exactly that.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Tell you to "go get pre-qualified" and maybe hand you a list of lenders.
  • You call lenders, fill out your own forms, and chase your own pre-qual.
  • No packaging of your financials. No letter working for you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Find lenders, prepare your personal financial statement, and chase a pre-qual. 5 to 15 hours.
  • Know which lenders fit you and present your finances to a credit officer.

Fumble this and you look unfundable, and brokers ignore you.

5 Stage 5Putting a real team on your deal You aloneAll of it
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We assign you a dedicated associate whose whole job is getting deals in front of you.
  • We stand up four to five layers of support behind that associate, so there is full coverage no matter what.
  • We kick off deal flow against your confirmed buy box, and your associate stays with you through the entire deal, not just the sourcing phase.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • The coaching tier gives you a 1:1 advisor you book calls with, who reviews your own work.
  • The "team" is you plus a coach who gives feedback.
  • A group chat gets called "support." Nobody is doing the work for you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • With no team, every downstream stage on this page lands on one desk. Yours.
  • You become the associate, the analyst, the valuation team, the LOI team, and the closing coordinator all at once.
  • Add the hours below and that empty "team" column is the real cost: all of them, on you.

One person doing the work of a five-layer team is why solo searches run 18 to 36 months and most never close.

A team does the work. You make the decision. That is the whole offer.

6 Stage 6 · the biggest time sinkSourcing deals, continuously You aloneHundreds of hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We scour the broker network continuously against your buy box, deal after deal, week after week.
  • We work individual broker sites directly, not just the big aggregators.
  • We work BizBuySell and the public listing sources against your box and your financing ceiling.
  • We find the deals that fit your box and proactively reach out to them. We do not wait for brokers to surface them.
  • We coordinate getting NDAs signed on every deal we pursue.
  • We chase the deal data and financials back from the broker so the analysis team has something to work with.
  • We run a baseline-fit check on every sourced deal before anything advances, so junk never reaches your screen.
  • We keep this running in parallel even while a live deal is in lending, so your pipeline never goes cold.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Aggregate listings into a dashboard or a newsletter, say "10 handpicked deals a week," and call it sourcing.
  • Then it is on you to pick deals, reach out, sign NDAs, follow up, and chase data.
  • "We source deals for you" is the headline. The reality is a feed, not outreach.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Send 200 to 500 outbound emails a month and keep 200 to 500 active prospects in a CRM during the active window.
  • Do all the broker outreach, NDA handling, prospecting cadence, and screening yourself.
  • Review 100-plus opportunities before one fits, and every one of those is on you.

The single biggest time sink in the whole search. Hundreds of hours, and most of it is unglamorous chasing.

7 Stage 7The follow-up nobody else does You aloneTens to hundreds of hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We put every reached-out deal into a structured follow-up system.
  • We hammer follow-up for weeks when a broker goes quiet, the deal info does not come back, or the NDA is not returned.
  • We keep pushing to get the data and the signed NDA, and only cut loose an unresponsive broker after persistent follow-up, usually around 2 weeks of silence.Here is the truth of sourcing: brokers reach out to the first 10 buyers and ignore everyone else. Persistence is what produces replies.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Nothing here. Follow-up is entirely your job.
  • You chase the broker for info, chase the NDA, chase the data, with no system and no leverage.
  • The whole "we source deals" promise quietly assumes you do all the chasing.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Tens to hundreds of hours of chasing brokers across your search. The unglamorous majority of sourcing time.
  • Bring persistent professional follow-up and broker psychology.

Brokers are not persistent on your behalf. Without relentless follow-up, deals just die in the inbox.

8 Stage 8Vetting and valuing every deal You alone10 to 40 hrs / deal
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • First pass: your associate reviews the returned deal data for any major red flags. If there is one, the deal is gone. If not, it advances.
  • Second pass: our valuation and analysis team runs the full financial analysis.
  • They confirm there is cash flow to support the deal under a typical structure.
  • They vet location, operations, and financials, and look at the deal exactly as an SBA underwriter would.
  • They run scenarios in our valuation model and anchor against the hard gates: DSCR of at least 1.15x, loan proceeds capped at the independent business valuation, equity injection of at least 10% of project cost.
  • Deals that fail get thrown away. Deals that pass move forward. You never touch the rejects.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Give you deal-analysis software or a model template and you fill it in yourself.
  • The coaching tier has you run your own analysis and bring it to a call for feedback.
  • You have to spot the red flags, and a first-timer who has never seen a deal usually cannot.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 1 to 3 weeks reading documents per serious deal, then 2 to 3 weeks analyzing financials and building a valuation. Roughly 10 to 40 hours per deal.
  • Bring financial-statement analysis, SDE and EBITDA recasting, red-flag detection, and real valuation methods.

You cannot catch what you have never seen. First-timers miss the red flags that kill deals later, often after spending money on diligence.

9 Stage 9The 2-to-5-minute deal video You aloneHours per dead deal
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We hand each passing deal to a presentation team member who walks it in a 2-to-5-minute video in Slack.
  • They cover what the business is, how it runs, what the owner does, and what you must know.
  • They walk the last few years of financials, what the numbers mean for cash flow, and what it looks like under a typical structure, including the loan scenario and your cash flow after debt service.
  • You get all the deal docs alongside the video.We only surface this after going through 10, 50, or even 100 deals to find one that fits, with you not lifting a finger on any of the rejects.
  • Then we ask you one simple question: do you want to learn more about this deal?
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You watch your own deals in your own dashboard and decide which to pursue.
  • No vetted, pre-analyzed presentation. You are the one who has to understand the deal.
  • Any feedback is a call reacting to work you already did.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Every deal you review yourself is hours of reading, modeling, and second-guessing, multiplied by the 100-plus deals it takes to find one.
  • Synthesize a whole business and its financials into a go or no-go, a skill that only comes after seeing many deals.

A Regalis Capital buyer decides in minutes from a vetted video. A solo buyer decides in hours or days, on every dead deal, with no filter in front of them.

10 Stage 10Seller and broker calls You aloneSeveral hrs / deal
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We coordinate the seller conversation, sometimes a broker call first, sometimes the seller directly.
  • We do all the scheduling and follow-up to get the call booked.
  • We prep you with a baseline question set, deal-specific questions, and how these calls usually flow, so you show up confident.
  • We capture the call with AI note-takers so you do not have to take notes, then dump all the call data into the deal automatically.
  • After the call you make one decision: pursue further, or not.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You schedule your own calls, chase the broker to book them, and run them solo.
  • You prepare your own questions and take your own notes.
  • A coach might role-play in advance, but you are alone on the live call.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Several hours per live deal: the scheduling chase, the prep, the call, and the note synthesis. More across multiple deals.
  • Bring seller-call structure, the right diligence questions, and the ability to read a seller.

An unprepared first-time buyer signals risk, and sellers favor buyers who look like they know what they are doing.

A team does the work. You make the decision. That is the whole offer, showing up again.

11 Stage 11Structuring the offer You aloneSeveral hrs / deal
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We comb the financials and gather what we need to structure, primarily tax returns, because SBA is a tax-return-driven program.
  • We do all the follow-up to gather that information. You do not lift a finger.
  • We build several offer structures based on what is likely, the call notes, and the likely competition on the deal.
  • We size each structure against the cash flow you want and what the deal can actually support.
  • We walk the options in a video, what each means and what makes sense, and you respond with a simple yes or no, or "I would rather do this instead." Then we build to whatever you choose.A note on structure: a seller note only counts toward your equity injection if it is on full standby, and any retained seller ownership, even 1%, triggers a full personal guarantee from the seller. So we structure around what is actually fundable.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Give you software that auto-generates structures and you pick one.
  • The coaching tier takes a call where you ask "should I send offer 2 or 3" and gets a yes, with no real deal context behind it.
  • You do the structuring and own the decision with thin support.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Several hours per deal to model structures, plus weeks of elapsed structuring and negotiation per live deal.
  • Bring deal structuring, cash-versus-seller-note mechanics, working-capital and transition terms, and a read on competition and seller psychology.

With us, several people who know your deal deliberate the offer. Solo, you guess at it with nobody beside you who has seen the deal.

12 Stage 12Writing the LOI You aloneA few hrs + hidden risk
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We write the Letter of Intent for you, or the Indication of Interest if that is the step.
  • We carry the full breakdown of your chosen offer into the LOI and build in our standard approach to terms: working capital, transition, exclusivity, and issue-mitigation structures, so your bases are covered.
  • We send you a finalized version for a quick review and sign-off, then send the signed LOI to the broker.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Hand you an LOI template to fill in.
  • You draft your own LOI, decide your own terms, and send it yourself.
  • No standard term framework. No protective structuring built in for you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • A few hours of drafting per LOI, but the real risk is in the terms you do not know to include.
  • Bring LOI drafting skill, working-capital and exclusivity terms, transition structures, and the mitigations that protect a buyer.

A template LOI with missing protections costs you in negotiation and diligence later, exactly where a first-timer cannot see it coming.

13 Stage 13Counters and negotiation You aloneWeeks per deal
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We follow up aggressively on the sent LOI until counters come back.
  • We take each counter, break down what every element means, and re-run the model.
  • We decide whether a counter-on-the-counter makes sense and what it does to your cash flow, then re-present the adjusted picture to you.
  • We repeat the yes/no loop as many times as the deal needs, until it is accepted or fully rejected.
  • The whole time, we keep your other deal flow running in parallel, still sourcing, vetting, presenting, and making offers on other deals.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You chase the broker for a response, field the counters, and negotiate alone.
  • You face a broker pushing for full price with nobody modeling the counter for you.
  • Maybe a coaching call to debrief, after you already handled the live negotiation.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Weeks of elapsed back-and-forth per deal, with real hours each round to re-model and re-decide.
  • Bring negotiation skill, counter analysis, and the discipline to hold a line against broker pressure.

Brokers negotiate for the seller every day. A first-time buyer negotiating alone, with no model behind them, gives up value or loses the deal.

14 Stage 14Signatures and kickoff calls You aloneSeveral hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We coordinate getting signatures on the accepted offer.
  • We run an internal kickoff call with you: what to expect next, the documents we need, and prep for the term sheet, lending, and closing.
  • We assign an LOI team on top of your associate, who stays throughout.
  • We run a kickoff call with the sell side (seller, broker, you) covering the full request list, the process, and the timeline.
  • Then we take over the broker's coordination job for the rest of the deal, because brokers reliably drop the ball.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • No kickoff. You figure out what comes next from a course module or a checklist.
  • You coordinate your own signatures and run your own calls with the seller and broker.
  • No team assigned. Nobody running the process for you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Several hours to organize signatures, build your own request list, and run your own kickoff calls.
  • Bring deal project management, the full document request list, and the ability to run a multi-party call.

The coordination job is real work. If you do not do it, the broker will not, and the deal stalls.

15 Stage 15Weekly cadence calls You alone5 to 10 hrs / week
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We set and run weekly cadence calls with the team, you, the seller, and the broker.
  • We use them to keep the seller moving and the deal on track, and we hammer the deal through lending and closing week after week.
  • All of this runs in parallel with your continued deal flow on other deals.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • No cadence. You are responsible for keeping your own deal moving.
  • If anything stalls, it is on you to notice and chase it.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • The recurring relationship and chase load that practitioners cite as 5 to 10 hours a week just to keep a deal alive.
  • Bring multi-party project management and the discipline to know what should be happening each week and chase what is not.

Deals die from neglect between milestones. Without a weekly cadence someone else runs, you are the only thing keeping the deal alive.

16 Stage 16Document collection and red-flag analysis You alone20 to 50+ hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We start collecting documents from you and the seller right after the offer is accepted.
  • We analyze every incoming document for red flags and raise issues to you as they come up.
  • We keep following up with the seller and broker to move documents fast, targeting what we need to assemble the lender package.
  • We manage the full load: roughly 30 to 40 documents to get to lending accepted, and 60 to 100 to get to close.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You request, collect, and chase all documents yourself.
  • You have to know what to ask for and spot the red flags in what comes back.
  • No second set of eyes on the documents for risk.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 20 to 50-plus hours of document gathering, lender back-and-forth, and chasing across the deal.
  • Bring the full SBA document list, document-analysis skill, and persistent multi-party chasing.

Missing or misread documents stall the loan or blow up the deal in underwriting, after you have already spent money.

A team does the work. You make the decision. That is the whole offer, showing up again.

17 Stage 17 · where the pretenders are most exposedBuilding the SBA loan package You alone20 to 40+ hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • Once everything is in hand, we package the entire deal.
  • We organize and rename every file so a lender and credit officer can navigate it easily.
  • We create the business plan.
  • We create the executive summary.
  • We build the financial projections, including year-over-year and month-over-month.
  • We create the seller questionnaire.
  • We handle the appraisal questionnaire and its back-and-forth.
  • We assemble the loan request and the sources-and-uses breakdown. This is the full SBA package, built for you.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Nothing here at all.
  • After an offer is signed, you build the entire lender package yourself. The business plan, the executive summary, the financial models, all of it.
  • At most they make intros to lenders, then you are on your own to satisfy them.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 20 to 40-plus hours to build a credible business plan and 3-to-5-year projections from scratch. Professional plan services take 7 to 10 business days.
  • Bring SBA business-plan writing, financial projection modeling, and sources-and-uses construction.

A weak package gets you declined or buried. This is the stage where the "done-for-you" pretenders are most exposed, because not one of them builds it.

18 Stage 18Multiple lenders, all at once You aloneTens of hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We reach out to lenders on your behalf, connecting you to as many as you want.
  • We start with roughly 5 to 10 lenders and scale up if the deal is harder.
  • We coordinate every bit of back-and-forth: a lender asks a batch of questions, we source the answers and send them off.
  • We figure out which questions we can answer from data already in hand versus which need fresh input from you or the seller, and we coordinate that.On average that is 20 to 40 emails back and forth to reach a term sheet, sometimes 50 to 100 on a harder deal.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • Make intros to lenders, then step back.
  • You manage every lender relationship, answer every question, and run all the back-and-forth yourself.
  • "We connect you to lenders" is the claim. You do the work of getting to a term sheet.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Tens of hours of lender correspondence per deal, on top of the package build.
  • Bring lender relationship management and the ability to field credit-officer questions and source answers fast.

One buyer juggling 5 to 10 lenders, answering credit questions they do not fully understand, is how deals stall at the lending stage.

19 Stage 19The term sheet You aloneSeveral hrs, high risk
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We get the term sheet back from the lender and present it to you.
  • We explain it bit by bit, every detail and what it means, and you decide: yes, no, or wait for other term sheets.
  • We keep cadence calls, deal flow, and offers running in parallel the whole time.
  • We push lenders through their credit and underwriting team for a credit-approved term sheet, not a conditional rubber-stamp, so the commitment is real.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You receive and interpret your own term sheet.
  • Nobody walks you through the terms or pushes the lender for a real credit-approved commitment.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Several hours to read, compare, and understand competing term sheets, with high error risk.
  • Tell a credit-approved commitment from a conditional one yourself.

A buyer who cannot tell a real approval from a sales-desk rubber-stamp wastes weeks on a lender who was never going to fund.

20 Stage 20Underwriting and credit You alone15 to 30+ hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • Once you accept a term sheet and sign off, the lender moves the deal into underwriting and credit.
  • We run a reset call with the seller and broker covering all the documents the diligence providers and lender will need.
  • We keep weekly cadence calls running with you, the seller, and the broker throughout.
  • We route every underwriter, credit-officer, and appraiser question through us, figuring out what we can answer from data on hand versus what needs a fresh request, then coordinating it.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You field underwriting and credit questions directly and coordinate the seller and broker yourself.
  • No reset call. Nobody triaging lender questions on your behalf.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 15 to 30-plus hours fielding underwriting and credit requests across the weeks of underwriting.
  • Understand underwriting requirements and coordinate seller and broker responses.

Underwriting questions that go unanswered, or answered wrong, stall or kill the loan late in the process, after months of work.

21 Stage 21Due diligence and legal You alone40 to 100+ hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • After the term sheet, we make intros to outside due-diligence providers and purchase-agreement legal providers, as many as you want.
  • You pick which providers to go with. They know our package requests are thorough, so they have little to add.
  • We coordinate everything they need: proof-of-cash elements, bank statements, asset lists, and legal documents.
  • Legal handles legal diligence and the purchase agreement. Financial does a proof-of-cash setup or a quality of earnings, your choice.
  • We take every provider request and follow up with the seller, broker, and lender to fulfill it.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • At most, point you to "find an attorney and an accountant."
  • You hire and manage your own diligence and legal providers and coordinate all of it.
  • No coordination layer between you and the providers.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 40 to 100-plus hours of personal time on the one deal that reaches diligence. A standard diligence period runs 45 to 90 days.
  • Select and manage providers, understand proof-of-cash and quality-of-earnings basics, and read a purchase agreement.

Diligence and legal are where deals are won or lost. A buyer coordinating it alone, while the loan and the seller wait, is the bottleneck.

22 Stage 22 · where 50 hours quietly becomes 500Being the one coordination point You aloneThe hidden tax
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We act as the single coordination point for everybody throughout: diligence providers, lender, underwriters, credit team, appraisers, seller, and broker.
  • We take every inbound request, decide what we can answer from data on hand versus what needs a separate request, and route it.
  • We jump on whatever needs doing when you are too busy, so you are never the bottleneck.
  • We keep multiple team members working your deal at once: deal-flow team, analysis team, LOI team, and closing team, all running in parallel.
  • The whole point is that you are only making short yes/no decisions and spending 15 to 20 minutes here or there, not hours every week.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • There is no coordination layer.
  • They hand you a tool. You are the system, the coordinator, the bottleneck, and the single point of failure.
  • Every request from every party lands on you.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • You personally absorb every handoff between every party. This is the hidden tax that pushes solo and coached searches into the hundreds-to-thousands of hours.
  • Run full-deal project management across lender, legal, financial, seller, and broker at the same time.

Every party waits on the one person coordinating. When that is you, the deal moves only as fast as your free time, and that is what stretches deals out and kills them.

23 Stage 23The commitment letter You aloneSeveral hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We work the deal until there is a commitment letter and a negotiated purchase-agreement draft ready to execute.
  • We present the commitment letter and break down every piece of it.
  • Then we move the deal from commitment letter into the closing checklist.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You receive and interpret your own commitment letter and move yourself toward closing.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Several hours to review and understand the commitment letter and its conditions.
  • Read a commitment letter and understand what each closing condition requires.

A misread condition surfaces at the closing table, where surprises are most expensive.

A team does the work. You make the decision. That is the whole offer, showing up again.

24 Stage 24The closing checklist You alone20 to 50+ hrs
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We work the closing checklist, which carries final items beyond the lender package.
  • We make intros for anything you need to close, like life-insurance providers, as many as needed.
  • We coordinate every item through to close: insurance lined up, purchase agreement signed, asset titles transferred, and the rest.
  • We keep all the teams running until the deal is done, deal-flow, analysis, LOI, and closing teams all still active.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You work your own closing checklist and source your own closing-stage providers.
  • Nobody coordinating the final items. You are alone at the most fragile point.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • 20 to 50-plus hours of document gathering, provider coordination, and lender back-and-forth at the close. SBA acquisition loans typically close 90 to 120 days from a signed LOI.
  • Coordinate liens, insurance, and title under deadline.

Closings collapse on missed checklist items. A solo buyer juggling the final list, with money and timing on the line, is one dropped item from blowing up the deal.

25 Stage 25Getting across the line You aloneHigh-stakes tail end
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We carry the deal across the line, handling the majority of the communications and the work all the way to close.
  • We are present at every step. From commitment letter to close is roughly 1 to 3 weeks.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • You close your own deal, with whatever providers you assembled, on your own coordination.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • The tail end of those 20 to 50-plus closing hours, concentrated and high-stakes.
  • Final coordination across lender, attorney, title, and insurance under deadline pressure.

The final stretch is where solo buyers, exhausted and out of their depth, lose deals that were almost done.

26 Stage 26After you own it You aloneNo direction
What Regalis Capital does for you
  • We hand you a business you can step in and operate, with the heavy lifting already done.
  • We give you access to monthly owner roundtables with other clients who have closed, so you learn from operators who are months or years in.
  • We stay available for high-level advisory calls as needed.
  • We scope and bill additional work separately as it makes sense, like hiring and placing a general manager, investor introductions where there is a fit, or the next deal.The whole relationship is aimed at your second, third, fifth, and tenth acquisition.
What they do (the so-called done-for-you services)
  • The group chat continues, and you are otherwise on your own to operate.
  • No structured operator network. No scoped advisory built around your closed deal.
!What's on YOU if you go with one of them

This is the work you do yourself if you use a so-called done-for-you service. With Regalis Capital, it is all handled for you.

  • Ongoing, but the cost here is direction, not just time.
  • Bring post-close operating skill and a sense of what to fix first.

No roundtable of closed operators to learn from, no advisory bench, and no obvious path to deal number two.

Everything you just read, in one pile

Let's add it up.

Here is everything the team carries for you, and the hours each piece would cost you alone.

Now add the right column. 5 here. 15 there. 40 on the package. 100 on diligence.

That is how 200 to 1,000 hours on the coaching path, and thousands on the solo path, actually happen. One stage at a time, while you tell yourself it is not that bad.

Every one of those lines is something you never touch. That is the offer.
This is not a theory. It runs every day.

These numbers are not a brochure. They are a logbook.

171,190Businesses sourced
4,124Deals vetted
294Accepted offers
158Active buyers
~150Deals reviewed every week
100+Person team
$324MIn deals currently under contract and in closing, as of right now

294 accepted offers means 294 times a buyer sat where you are sitting, picked a deal from a short vetted video, and our team carried it to an accepted offer. 158 active buyers means 158 people who are not full-time dealmakers now own or are buying a business.

Right now, today, there is $324M in deals under contract and in closing through this exact process. Roughly 150 deals get reviewed every week so that the handful that fit ever reach a buyer's screen.

That is not a course with a sales page. That is a working machine with closed deals behind it. Not a course you watch. Not a dashboard you log into. A team that runs deals.

What it costs, the 5%, and why it is lower than it should be

Let me put the whole price on the table, nothing hidden.

The fastest way to lose your trust is to be cute about money.

$15,000 one-time + 5% strategy fee on close The Regalis Capital on-market program. The 5% is a success fee, tied to a deal actually closing.

I am going to guess your next thought. "5% of a $2,000,000 business is $100,000. So this is not a $15K offer, the real number is huge, and they buried it." Fair. So let me un-bury it.

The 5% is a success fee. If nothing closes, the 5% never happens. We get the bulk of our money only when you actually own a business that pays you.

Here is why that should make you trust us more, not less. We do not get paid the real money for selling you a course or keeping you enrolled. We get paid when you cross the finish line. Our incentive and your incentive point at the same door.

Now the question you have not asked yet but should. "Why is this cheaper than the high-end buy-side advisors who charge $45,000 and up?"

Because those advisors charge a large fixed retainer whether you close or not, and many do far less than this page describes. We chose a small fixed fee plus a success fee instead, so most of what we make is earned only when you win.

We priced it low and tied to the close on purpose, because a buyer who closes comes back for deal 2, 3, and 10. We would rather make our money with you ten times than gouge you once.

A pure course or coaching tier

$10,000 to $15,000 up front.

You do all the work.

The outcome is entirely on you.

Regalis Capital

Same neighborhood on the up-front number.

The team does the work.

The bulk of our fee only triggers when you own the business.

Same starting price. Completely different machine, and a completely different person on the hook for the outcome.

Now do the math nobody else will do for you. Put a dollar figure on your own time. Say it is $100 an hour, which is low for someone buying a business.

The coaching path costs you 200 to 1,000 hours on top of the fee. At $100 an hour, that is $20,000 to $100,000 of your own time, spent learning seven jobs you will use exactly once.

The solo path costs you thousands of hours. At $100 an hour, that is a quarter of a million dollars of your life, with most people closing nothing at the end.

The expensive part was always your time, and that is the part you get to keep.
Why we built it this way (the honest reason)

Let me be straight about our motive.

Pretending we do not have one just breeds suspicion. We built this as full done-for-you because that is the only version of this business that works long term.

We make money when you close, and when you come back for deal two, three, and ten. A buyer who burns out at 300 hours and never closes is worthless to us.

So our incentive is to actually get you across the line, not to sell you a course and wish you luck. That is the whole reason the team does the work instead of coaching you to do it.

When someone's payday depends on your close, they do the work. When it depends on your enrollment, they sell you a course. Pick accordingly.
The smartest people make this exact mistake

You can learn any one of these jobs. I believe that completely.

That was never the question. The question is whether one person can do all seven or eight of them at once, well, on the biggest purchase of their life, while a seller and a lender wait.

Here is the new way to see it. Refusing to do this alone is not a weakness. It is the single smartest move a capable person can make, because the constraint was never your ability. It was the number of jobs.

This is not a knock on you. It is math. One person cannot run a five-layer team's workload and also live their life.

That is exactly why the solo search is a 20-month full-time job that most people who start never finish.

You would be failing at it because no one human is supposed to be 7 experts at once, and pretending otherwise is the actual mistake. So do not.

Let the people who already are those 7 experts do their jobs, and you do yours, which is to decide and to sign. That is the only version of this that ends with you owning a business.

A course and a team are not the same product at two prices

This is the belief that costs people the most.

A cheaper "done-for-you" program looks like a discount version of the same thing. It is not. It is a different thing entirely.

"Done-for-you" in that tier almost always means a dashboard plus a deal feed plus coaching, with the work left on your desk. The deal feed is scraped from the same brokers and sites you could reach yourself.

"Unlimited 1:1 support" often turns out to be you and dozens of other people on a group Zoom. The "financing and legal contacts" are intros, not execution.

Strip the marketing off those programs and you find the same thing every time: a dashboard, a group call sold as 1:1, and a stack of homework with your name on it.

What "good enough" actually feels like

It is 11 months in. The one deal you liked is in underwriting.

The lender just fired back 40 questions you do not understand.

Your "unlimited support" is a group Zoom on Thursday.

What the cheaper program really cost

It did exactly what it promised. It handed you the templates and the dashboard.

The hundreds of hours of expert work it quietly left on your desk is why the deal is now dying.

Nobody on that group call is going to do it for you.

Cheap is not cheap when it costs you the deal. The real price of the cheaper program is the business you never end up owning.
"I do not have time for any of this."

Good. That is the entire point.

You do not have 200 to 1,000 hours. You definitely do not have thousands. And even if you somehow did, you would be spending them learning jobs you will never use again after one deal.

The Regalis Capital path asks for about 40 to 50 hours total, sometimes less, spread over a multi-month deal. A few hours a month of your attention.

Your only standing job is roughly 1 hour a week building rapport with the seller once a deal is under offer. That is it.

If you are too busy to buy a business, that is the strongest possible reason to have a team buy it for you.
The system really is built against a solo first-time buyer

This one is not in your head. It is real.

You should know it before you start. Brokers reach out to the first 10 buyers and ignore the rest. Sellers favor buyers who look like they know what they are doing. Lenders bury weak packages.

A solo first-time buyer trips every one of those wires. That is not pessimism, it is how the field actually treats unproven buyers.

Here is the new truth. None of that is a reason to give up. It is the reason to have a team standing between you and every one of those gates.

The perception build, the pre-qualification, the relentless follow-up, the credit-approved term sheet, the airtight package. Every one of those exists so the deal does not die on someone else's desk.

You are not walking in alone and hoping the gatekeepers like you. You are walking in with a team of 100-plus that those gatekeepers have already dealt with hundreds of times.

That is the difference between getting screened out and getting taken seriously, and between a closed deal and another dead inbox.
Picture the version where you have a team

Picture the closing day.

You are signing. The business is yours. You spent maybe 40 hours of your own time across the whole thing, mostly on calls and yes/no decisions.

The sourcing, the follow-up, the valuation, the LOI, the bank package, the lender wrangling, the diligence, the closing coordination. A team carried all of it.

You did not learn seven jobs. You did not send 500 cold emails. You did not build a business plan at midnight. You did not chase a broker for three weeks.

You made decisions, attended the calls that mattered, and showed up to close. Now you own a business that pays you. And there is a team already lined up for deal number two.

Now picture the version where you did it alone

Same goal. Different movie.

You are 14 months in. You have reviewed 90-something deals and lost the two you liked, one to a faster buyer, one in diligence after you had already paid for it.

You have a half-built business plan, a lender who went quiet, and an inbox of brokers who stopped replying. You are exhausted, and you still do not own anything.

This is not the worst case. This is the common case. The data says most people who start a solo search never close at all.

That is the fork. One path is a few hours a month and a team. The other is a second job for two to three years, with no guarantee at the end.
Everything you do not have to do, and everything you get instead

Say yes to the team and here is what leaves your plate.

You never have to learn SBA loan sizing, build your own buyer website, or write your own buyer profile.
You never have to chase your own pre-qual, send 200 to 500 cold emails a month, or chase a silent broker for three weeks.
You never have to analyze a deal you have never seen the likes of, spot the red flags alone, or model your own offer structures.
You never have to write your own LOI, negotiate a counter with no model behind you, or build an SBA business plan and projections from scratch.
You never have to manage 10 lenders at once, interpret your own term sheet, or coordinate your own diligence and legal.
You never have to be the single point of failure on your own deal, or figure out deal number two alone.

Now here is what lands on it instead.

You get to pick the industry you actually want to own.
You get to watch a short video and say yes or no.
You get to show up to the calls that matter and skip the 5 to 10 hours a week of chasing that does not.
You get a team of 100-plus running your deal in parallel while you live your life.
You get to spend roughly 1 hour a week building rapport with a seller, and let that be the hardest thing on your list.
You get to sit at a closing table months from now owning a business that pays you, having spent about 40 hours to get there. And a team already lined up for deal number 2.
Every line you crossed off was an hour, a skill, or a disaster. Every line you just gained is the part you actually wanted. That trade is the entire offer.
Who this is for, and who it is not

Most people reading this do not want the project. They want the business.

This is for you if

  • You want to own a real business and have the capital position to finance an SBA deal.
  • You would rather make decisions than learn seven new jobs.
  • Your time is worth more than the hundreds of hours the other paths cost.

This is not for you if

  • You want to spend the next two to three years personally running a search as a full-time project.
  • If that is the dream, a course can hand you the playbook, and we genuinely wish you well.
Everything you get, in one breath, before you decide

Let me stack it all back up in one place.

You get underwriting to your real ceiling, a buy box built on actual numbers, your buyer website, your buyer profile, and a lender pre-qualification. You get your deal folders, deal documents, data room, and outreach systems.

You get a dedicated associate plus 4 to 5 layers of support. You get continuous sourcing across the broker network, broker sites, and BizBuySell, the NDAs, the weeks of follow-up, two-stage vetting, and a full valuation by a dedicated team.

You get short vetted deal videos so you decide in minutes. You get seller calls scheduled, prepped, run, and noted, multiple offer structures modeled, your LOI written and protected, and the counters analyzed and negotiated for you.

You get the kickoff calls, the weekly cadence calls, document collection with red-flag analysis, and the full SBA loan package built start to finish. You get 5 to 10-plus lenders worked in parallel, the term sheet walked line by line, underwriting and credit coordinated, due diligence and legal coordinated, the commitment letter explained, and the closing checklist driven to close.

Then you get monthly owner roundtables and advisory after you own it, and a team already in place for deal number 2.

That is one team carrying roughly 7 expert jobs and thousands of hours of work, for about 40 to 50 hours of your time and a fee that mostly triggers only when you win.

Now the honest reason there is a limit, said out loud. A course can add one more login for free. We cannot add one more buyer for free.

Every client gets a dedicated associate plus 4 to 5 layers of support running their deal in parallel with everyone else's. That is real human capacity, and it is finite.

So we take a limited number of buyers at a time. When the bench is full, the next buyer waits, and waiting is not free, because every month you are not in process is a month closer to nothing.

The deals do not wait for you to be ready. The 150 reviewed this week close to buyers who moved. The reason to act now is not a fake countdown, it is that capacity is real and the deals are moving with or without you.

The decision in front of you

Let me answer the three questions I would be asking in your seat.

"What if no deal ever closes?"
Then the 5% never triggers, because it is a success fee tied to a closing. You are not buying a promise that one specific deal closes. You are buying the team and the machine that gives a first-time buyer the best odds anyone can give, and the bulk of our pay is on the line right next to your outcome.
"Will you push me into a bad deal just to collect the 5%?"
No, and the structure is the reason. A bad deal blows up in underwriting or diligence and pays us nothing, plus it costs us a buyer who would have come back for deals 2 through 10. Our money is in your repeat business, so a deal that hurts you is a deal that hurts us more.
"Is this even real?"
Look back up at the proof. 294 accepted offers, 158 active buyers, $324M under contract and in closing right now, roughly 150 deals reviewed every week by a team of 100-plus. That is not a sales page with a Calendly behind it. That is a working machine.

So here is the fork, with nothing left to figure out.

Path one is a 20-month full-time job that most people never finish. Path two is 200 to 1,000 hours of your time on top of a fee, with the work still on your desk. Path three is a team that does the work while you make the decisions, for about 40 to 50 hours of your own time, with most of the fee tied to you actually winning.

The up-front price sits in the same range as the courses. The outcome is in a different universe, and so is the person on the hook for it.

A team does the work. You make the decisions. That has been true on every one of the 27 stages you just read, and it will be true on yours.

So here is the only thing left to do.

On the call we walk through your numbers, your buy box, and exactly how this works for your deal, your capital, and your goals. It is not a pitch you have to survive. It is the first 30 minutes of the team going to work on your situation.

Book the call

You have the full picture now. Let the team do the work.
