For service & SaaS founders stuck between $1M–$7M
You built something that works — but it still rides on you. I help you turn your team, partners, suppliers, and customers into Business Superfans® who refer, retain, and advocate on their own — so growth compounds whether you're in the room or not.
You're not imagining it. The ground shifted — and most of the weight still lands on the founder.
Every input got more expensive while clients got harder — and more expensive — to win.
Buyers find you differently now. The playbook that built you won't be the one that scales you.
Sales, decisions, fires — if you step away for a week, growth stalls. That's not a business, it's a job.
Referrals show up by luck, not by design. Retention leaks quietly. Nobody owns the number.
Two of the engagements behind the playbook I'll bring into your business.
Scaled a CAD/CAM SaaS product from zero to $3M+ in three years and built a 60+ reseller network across Europe, Asia, and the Americas — including the multilingual strategy that opened non-English markets. Coined “Machining Intelligence™” on the 1999 brochure, nearly two decades before “AI” became a buzzword.
Recruited to take over a stalled statewide interpretation & translation company after the founder's death. Moved from operations manager to GM/CRO/COO, restructured pricing, modernized systems with SaaS automation, and secured multi-year state and healthcare contracts.
“In less than two years, Frederick more than doubled sales and stabilized profitability in a post-Covid world. If you have the opportunity to bring him into your business, be prepared for great growth.”
— Jean Peters
This is for service & SaaS owners doing $1M+ who are ready to build, not dabble. If you want motivation over execution, I'm not your guy.
You can't fix what you're too close to see. Over two weeks I interview you, your key team, and 5–8 of your customers — then audit the whole picture: sales process, partner and referral motion, retention, CRM, and your full stakeholder ecosystem.
You leave with a written Revenue Architecture Report — a prioritized 90-day plan and a hard number on exactly what staying stuck is costing you every month.
Your $797 credits in full toward a Growth Architect build if you decide to go further.
START WITH AN AUDIT →Most advisors patch your sales funnel. I rebuild the whole engine. The businesses that grow without their owner have an entire ecosystem selling for them — team, contractors, suppliers, partners, and clients all turned into Business Superfans®. That's the part almost no one else builds.
I embed as your part-time revenue leader for 6–12 months, run the weekly rhythm beside you, and own the number.
Typical outcomes after 12 months: 30–50% revenue growth, a repeatable sales & partner engine, and a business that runs whether you're in the office or on a beach.
SEE IF WE'RE A FIT →The operating system we install — nine pillars that turn a founder-dependent business into a self-propelled one.

Imagine weekends reclaimed, spontaneous getaways booked on a whim, and fresh headspace to dream up what's next — because a self-propelled team of Business Superfans® is championing your growth.
Think about your favorite team. Fans show up in the rain, wear the jersey, bring their friends, and defend you online — without being asked. Now imagine your whole ecosystem doing that for your business.
Most advisors have run playbooks. I've been the operator who lived them — building a SaaS from $0 to $3M+, a 60-partner global channel, and doubling a service company before it was acquired. After 35+ years, I can spot in minutes what would take you months to see alone, and I build the whole stakeholder ecosystem, not just the sales funnel.
The Audit is a fixed two-week engagement — no strings. The Growth Architect build runs 6–12 months because installing a real engine takes more than a quarter. There's no long-term lock-in; we work in defined phases and you see progress against the number every week.
Service and SaaS founders typically doing $1M–$7M who have something that works but feel it all riding on them. Professional and trade service businesses are right in my wheelhouse. If you're pre-revenue or want a course to follow on your own, this isn't the right fit.
That's exactly what the Revenue Diagnostic Call is for. 30 minutes, no pitch theater — tell me where it feels stuck and you'll leave with at least one fix you can use whether we work together or not.
One 30-minute call. We'll find where revenue is leaking and map your fastest path to a business that scales with — or without — you.
