The Conventional Way to Grow a Business

Stressful, Slow, and Painful

The traditional approach to scaling a business drains founders of joy, passion, and vitality. It involves:

  • - Wearing all the hats, trying to handle everything alone, and spreading yourself too thin instead of focusing on growing your business.

  • Starting each day overwhelmed and paralyzed by a massive to-do list with no clear direction on where to start or what to tackle next.

  • Working around the clock, putting in 12-18 hour days and sometimes pulling all-nighters, only to lose sleep from worry, waking up exhausted to repeat the cycle and sacrificing your health.

  • Spending most of your time on low-impact tactical activities that drain your energy instead of focusing on what you’re passionate about and excel at.

  • Dealing with toxic people who hinder rather than accelerate your progress.

  • Losing the best relationships in your life with loved ones

    Hitting a growth plateau and not knowing where your next customer will come from.

The Definitive Growth System for $10M Revenues + Entrepreneurs Wanting to Drive $10-30M Revenues Profitably, Fast.

The Definitive Growth System for Entrepreneurs Wanting to reach $10M-30M Revenues.

Scale Engine isn’t a coaching program. It’s a hard-edged, operator-led private equity system built to scale companies fast.


Used to drive hundreds of firms onto the INC 5000 and beyond, it delivers results—not theory.

At the core is The 10X Valuation System: the same framework we’ve used to engineer rapid scale, margin expansion, and high-multiple exits. It forces clarity, discipline, and execution across every function while elevating the CEO into a true enterprise leader.

This is an invitation-only environment for ambitious founders who refuse to coast.


If you're serious about building a stronger company, accelerating growth, and creating strategic optionality, this is the playbook private equity wishes your competitors never found

The Conventional Way to Scale a Business Is Broken

For $10M–$30M CEOs, the “do everything yourself” model doesn’t scale. It slows growth, increases risk, and turns the CEO into the bottleneck

  • Wearing all the hats - trying to handle everything alone, and spreading yourself too thin instead of focusing on growing your business.

  • Starting each day overwhelmed and paralyzed - by a massive to-do list with no clear direction on where to start or what to tackle next.

  • Working around the clock and burning out - putting in 12-18 hour days, pulling all-nighters, only to lose sleep from worry, waking up exhausted to repeat the cycle and sacrificing your health and family relationships.

  • Wasting most of your time on low-impact tactical activities - that drain your energy instead of focusing on what you’re passionate about and excel at.

  • Dealing with toxic people - who hinder rather than accelerate your progress.

  • Losing the best relationships in your life - with loved ones and friends due to fatigue and not having time for them.

  • Hitting a growth plateau - making no progress, not knowing where your next customer will come from.

    By joining Tech Consulting Business Academy you will scale your business much faster, with much less pain and in great company . It will leave you successful, happy, energized and in a better state to be with your Family, Friends and Colleagues.

Most founders live in a cycle that looks like this:

  • Wearing Every Hat

    You’re running sales, delivery, hiring, client issues, operations, and finance.
    Instead of driving growth, you’re firefighting.

  • Starting Each Day Overloaded

    A packed task list, conflicting priorities, and no execution rhythm.

    You work hard—but rarely on the right things.

  • Grinding 12–18 Hour Days

    Long nights, working weekends, zero recovery.
    You wake up tired and go to bed thinking about problems.

  • Trapped in Low-Value Work

    Answering emails, fixing issues, managing staff problems—

    instead of building systems, strategy, and profit levers.

  • People Challenges Everywhere

    Underperformers stay too long.

    High performers leave because the business runs on chaos.

  • Relationships Take the Hit

    Your family sees you less.
    Your energy collapses.
    Your business owns you.

  • Growth Plateaus

    Pipeline inconsistencies, margin erosion, stalled revenue.
    You’re pushing harder but not breaking through.
