How To Compress 3-10 Years Of Growth Into The Next 6-12 Months
If you're reading this, you're already doing well. Really well.
You've built a physical product brand that works. Customers are buying. Revenue is coming in. You've figured out more than most people ever do.
But under the surface something's off. Margins are tighter than they should be. Cash is always more constrained than the revenue number suggests. And no matter what you try, the next level keeps feeling just out of reach.
That only happens for one of two reasons.
Either you don't WANT to, or you don't know HOW to.
If you're like most of the physical product brand owners I work with, I have to assume it's not a want issue.
Which means you just haven't had the right person in your corner yet.
That's Why I Created My Growth Advisory Services
Most physical product brand owners are paying separately for a marketing agency that only sees ad performance, and a financial team that only sees historical numbers.
Nobody connects the two.
Your agency optimizes for ROAS without knowing your true contribution margin. Your accountant tells you what happened last quarter without knowing your growth strategy. And you're stuck in the middle making million-dollar decisions without anyone who understands both sides of the equation at the same time.
That's the gap this service fills.
I've invested over $500K in advisors and mentors across my career. And the ones who moved the needle fastest weren't the ones with the most impressive credentials. They were the ones who could see the whole picture, connect the dots between marketing decisions and profit outcomes, and tell me exactly what to fix next.
That's what the Fractional Growth Advisor service is built to do for you.
It's REALLY Hard To See The Forest For The Trees In Your Own Business
When you're running a physical product business, the day never really ends.
Inventory issues. Fulfillment problems. Ad accounts to manage. A team that needs direction. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, you're supposed to be making the big strategic decisions that actually move the business forward.
The problem is, when everything feels urgent, nothing gets the focused attention it deserves. You stop leading and start reacting. Strategic thinking gets replaced by firefighting. And the real constraints that are quietly capping your growth stay invisible because you never have the headspace to actually find them.
It's not a willpower problem. It's not an intelligence problem.
It's a bandwidth problem.
And the longer you stay in that mode, the more expensive it gets.
The Real Problem Is That Nobody Sees The Whole Picture
Even when you do come up for air, the information you're getting is incomplete.
Your media buyer sees ad performance. Your ops person sees inventory and fulfillment. Your accountant sees last quarter's numbers. Everyone is looking at their piece of the puzzle but nobody is connecting them.
It's like being a man trying to find something in a fridge. Our wives know it's there, we know it's there, but our brains just don't see what's directly in front of our faces.
(This happens to me at least once a week!)
The same thing happens in physical product businesses. Your ROAS looks fine but your true contribution margin tells a completely different story. Your revenue is growing but your cash conversion cycle is getting longer. Your best selling SKU might not be your most profitable one.
These connections are almost impossible to make when everyone around you is only looking at one piece at a time.
And there's a one word answer for why that costs you so much...
It’s like being a man trying to find something in a fridge. Our wives know it’s there, we know it’s there (because they’re never wrong), but our brains just don’t see what’s directly in front of our faces!
(This literally just happened to me yesterday.)
Unfortunately, the same thing happens in business. Except it happens to everyone.
Everyone thinks they can see it all. But I’ve been behind the scenes of dozens of 6, 7, and 8-figure companies, many with very, very sharp entrepreneurs…
And 100% of them were leaving massive amounts of profit on the table.
And there’s a one-word answer as to why that is…
Efficiency
Rate your business efficiency right now in your head. 100% would be perfect. Flawless acquisition economics, true contribution margin fully optimized, zero cash trapped in inventory, perfect operational leverage.
No physical product business runs at 100%. It's impossible. And every percent of inefficiency has a very real cost.
At $2M in revenue, a measly 10% inefficiency costs you $200K per year in profit...
At $5M, that same 10% costs you $500K per year in profit...
At $10M, it costs you $1M per year in profit...
Most businesses I look at are running at 30-50% efficiency. Some are much worse.
These aren't failures. They're blind spots. Inventory cash cycles that are longer than they should be. Contribution margins that look healthy until you factor in every variable cost. Acquisition economics built around ROAS instead of what you can actually afford to spend per customer.
And the bigger you get, the more expensive those blind spots become.
Thankfully, the solution is simple...
Work with someone who can see through the trees currently blocking your view of the forest.
Why I've Structured This To Get You Results, Not Ideas
Most advisory relationships fail for one simple reason: they stop at ideas.
You get a call. You get advice. And then you're back on your own trying to turn that advice into action while the business keeps moving. It's a terrible model and honestly it's why most founders walk away from advisory relationships feeling like they paid for a strategy deck that collected dust.
I created my Growth Advisory service to solve that.
Instead of more meetings or generic guidance, you get a focused partnership designed to help you make the right decisions AND execute them. My job isn’t to talk. It’s to help you increase profit by removing constraints, tightening your profit model, and keeping execution moving in the right direction.
That's why it's much less "call" focused and much more "execution" focused. Because that's where the real results happen. Pressure testing a pricing decision before you make it. Reviewing an offer before it goes live. Figuring out why margins are compressing before it becomes a crisis.
Think of it as having a fractional CMO and CFO rolled into one. Someone who understands your acquisition economics AND your P and L. Someone who connects marketing decisions to profit outcomes instead of optimizing one without understanding the other.
This structure respects your time, avoids meeting overload, and keeps momentum high so you pay for results instead of ideas.
After spending $500K on my own advisors and generating nearly $200M in results, I’ve learned exactly what works and what doesn’t when it comes to outside help.
So I created something different.
Not consulting. Not coaching. Not another mastermind.
Growth Advisory.
Imagine having an employee whose sole job was thinking about new ways to either make or save you profit. Their job description was literally “Make more money.”
That’s exactly what this is.
Plus, I’ve set this up to help you in the most unintrusive way possible. I’m sure you’re already SWAMPED with priorities, meetings, and everyone trying to steal your attention all day.
I have no interest in being another one of those.
That’s why we have just ONE, one-hour call each month where we tackle your biggest constraints and opportunities. Just a quick 2-minute check in so I know your mental state, then 58 minutes of pure strategy, problem-solving, and priority planning.
Here's What That'll Do For You
Facing a critical decision? Send me a message and get a second set of eyes before it slows you down or becomes expensive.
CAC climbing and margins shrinking? We'll dig into your true acquisition economics and figure out exactly what you can afford to spend per customer to hit your profit targets.
Cash always tighter than it should be? We'll identify where it's getting trapped, whether that's inventory cycles, payment terms, or overhead, and fix it before it becomes a crisis.
Launching or refining an offer? I'll help you spot what's missing and pressure test the economics before it goes live.
Growth creating more chaos than profit? That's a systems and profit model problem. We'll identify exactly where things are breaking down and fix it in the right sequence.
Still the answer to every question in your business? We'll build the systems that pull you out of the weeds so your team can execute without you in the middle of everything.
In other words, our entire focus is on one thing: more profit, more cash, and less chaos.
Not more meetings. Not more ideas. Actual results.
But I Do Have A Quick Warning…
You'll be working with me personally on this. And since I'm extremely strict with who I let into my life, I do have several criteria that, to be honest, most people won't qualify for. You must have a few specific traits for this to make sense for both of us:
Who It's For
1.
You're running a physical product brand doing at least $1M in annual revenue
2.
Your business is already profitable and ready for acceleration, not just survival
3.
You take action and execute recommendations instead of collecting ideas
4.
You value brutal honesty that leads to results, not soft pats on the back
5.
You sell something of real value and integrity you’re proud to scale
6.
You’re someone I actually want to work with. Grounded, self-aware, and easy to collaborate with
Who It's Not For
1.
You’re below $1M and still working out product market fit
2.
You’re struggling just to stay above water or are a falling knife
3.
You value ideas over execution
4.
You avoid hard truths or only want positive reinforcement
5.
You’re selling a shitty product that delivers no value
6.
You’re high-drama, low-accountability, or tend to add stress to people's lives
If you're looking for someone to validate every decision, tell you how smart you are, and never push back, I'm not your guy. I’m direct and will tell you exactly how it is. Not out of aggression, but out of love and knowing you’re capable of SO much more than you realize. My job is to help maximize the potential of you and your business.
In other words - if you need someone to save your business, fix your mindset, or motivate you to work, I’m not your guy. But if you want someone who will help you see what you can't see, compress time through experience, and build something exceptional instead of just profitable...
You’re exactly the type of person I’d love to help.
And with that out of the way, let’s discuss…
The ROI of Buying Speed
Let’s talk about what this is really worth.
What’s the value of hitting your 3-5 year goal in the next 6-12 months?
If you’re at $5M trying to get to $15M, that’s $10M in additional revenue you’re pulling forward by two years. I don’t know your current revenue, or your goal, but just do the math in your head.
How would it feel to pull that goal forward and accomplish it in a fraction of the time? What could you do with that head start? What opportunities could you capture? How would it change your financial life? Your personal life? Your internal peace?
But forget the numbers for a second…
What’s it worth to stop second-guessing every decision?
What’s it worth to know exactly what to fix next?
What’s it worth to have someone who’s seen your exact situation before telling you exactly how it plays out?
Every month you operate without that clarity costs you more than any advisory relationship ever could. Wrong decisions that take too long. Opportunities you don’t even see. Time spent solving problems that shouldn’t exist.
You’re not paying for advice. You’re paying to skip the line. To compress time. To get where you’re going before your competition even knows there’s a race.
The question isn’t whether or not you can afford this…
The question is whether you’re willing to take 3-5 years to get where you could be in 6-12 months.
And if that resonates with you…
Let’s See If We’re A Fit
At the end of the day, this isn't just advice or more conversations. This is about better decisions that make or save real money. When we work together, you'll get:
Faster profit growth by fixing the constraints that are quietly capping revenue.
Less wasted time on decisions that don’t matter or don’t move profit.
Closer alignment on your highest-leverage work so your team executes with focus.
More predictability in your business so cash flow, offers, pricing, and marketing aren’t guessing games anymore.
In other words, you'll spend less time reacting and more time earning profit with less friction.
If that feels right for you, our next step is to have a quick chat. I need to be 100% certain I can deliver massive value to your specific business. If I can’t see a clear path to give you a 10x ROI minimum within a reasonable timeframe, I won’t take your money.
If you're aligned with that...
You Fill Out The Application Below
Be detailed. The more I understand about your business and goals, the better I can determine if I can actually help.
We’ll Jump On A Call
The point of the call is to find out if we're a good fit together both personally and professionally. We need to mutually agree for it to make sense.
If we both feel good about it, we move forward. If either of us has doubts, we shake hands and part ways. No hard selling. No “convincing.” It’s either an obvious fit or it’s not.
Fair enough?
If so, and if you’re ready to compress 3-5 years into the next 6-12 months and want someone in your corner who gets it, fill out the application to see if you qualify.
Frequently Asked Questions
I Already Have Advisors/Board Members. Why Do I Need This?
Most advisors show up quarterly, look at a deck, and give generic advice. This is different. I'm in your business consistently, thinking about your specific challenges, and available when real decisions need to be made in real time. More importantly, most advisors see one side of your business. Your marketing people optimize for growth. Your financial people manage the books. Nobody sits between them and connects marketing decisions to profit outcomes. That's exactly what this service does.
What If I'm Already Growing Fast?
Even better! Fast growth creates MASSIVE inefficiencies because you're moving so fast there's no possible way to hit it all. Fast growth also tends to squeeze margins and make your blind spots even that more expensive. These are my FAVORITE types of clients because I'm just adding a second supercharger to the back of your rocket
How Do I Know You Understand My Specific Industry?
I don't need to be an expert in your specific category. I need to be an expert in the economics of physical product businesses, which I am. Contribution margin, inventory cash cycles, fulfillment costs, return rates, COGS pressure, acquisition economics. I've dealt with all of it firsthand running my own physical product company. The specific tactics differ between a supplement brand and an apparel brand, but the economic levers are identical across every physical product business I've ever worked with.
What If I'm Too Busy To Add Another Commitment?
If you're too busy to focus on the 5 main profit drivers in your business, I'd STRONGLY argue that you're busy doing the wrong things. This is exactly the type of issue we can deep-dive and figure out how to unshackle you from low-value activities eating up you and your teams' time.
Can't I Just Figure This Out Myself?
Can't I just figure this out myself? Keith Cunningham calls this the "Dumb Tax" - the difference between what you make learning through experience versus what you could make learning from someone else's experience. Every mistake costs money. Every wrong turn takes time. Every lesson learned the hard way has a price tag.
So yes, you can figure it out yourself. But while you're paying your tuition to the School of Hard Knocks, your competitors who bought expertise are already two years ahead. The dumb tax on a $5M business learning everything firsthand is probably $2-3M in lost opportunity and mistakes. The smart money buys the lessons without paying for the mistakes.
We help physical product brand owners scale faster with more profit, more cash, and less stress. Because every business should make life better, not harder.
