Bring the expertise. We'll build the company around it.
We work with people who have already started — or want to start — a business in their field. You stay at the helm. We handle what's around it.
Operators who know and care.
- 01
Real expertise
You have done this work for years, or you are the person others in your trade call when something goes wrong.
- 02
You care about the work
You would do it well even if nobody checked. Standards are not something we can add later.
- 03
An idea that stands on its own
The business has to make sense on paper. We will run the numbers with you before anything else.
- 04
Willingness to build in the open
We share books, systems, and plans across the firm. Partners who do well here like that.
The parts of a business nobody trains you for.
| Capital | Funding from the equity development fund, sized to the plan — not to a pitch deck. |
|---|---|
| Back office | Bookkeeping, entity setup, contracts, payroll, and the administrative work that buries most new owners. |
| Brand & marketing | Naming, identity, web, content, and social — handled by people who do it every day. |
| Software & systems | Booking, payments, CRM, and reporting set up from day one, so the business runs on systems instead of memory. |
| Space & real estate | Help finding, financing, and fitting out the physical space a business needs to operate. |
| A network of operators | Founders across different industries who have solved problems you are about to meet. |
What operators ask first.
Do I give up control of my business?
No. The operator runs the work. We agree on roles and decision rights up front, in writing, before anything is funded.
How is ownership split?
Every partnership is structured case by case, around what the business needs and what each side contributes. You will hold a real stake in what you build.
Do you only back brand-new companies?
No. We work with people who have already started a business in their field, and with people who want to start one.
Which industries do you work in?
So far: home services, food service, entertainment, software, and real estate. We are open to others where the operator's expertise is clear.
What happens after I apply?
We read every application. If it looks like a fit, we set up a conversation — usually within two weeks.

A few honest paragraphs beat a polished deck. We read every application and reply to the ones that fit.
