One good cash flowing asset can change
your life - it changed mine.
If we haven’t met before - Hi, I'm Gregory👋
Believe it or not I grew up as a Mennonite - not usually what people think of when they think " big shot investor".
But crazily enough nearly 30 years ago I organized my first "investment" to generate me additional income-- and I've never looked back.
Is this you?
You’re ready to ditch your 9-5 job and take full control of your future through ownership.
You want to add a cashflowing business to your portfolio but need a playbook.
Being your own boss is the dream, but you need a clearly defined path to get there.

I took the advice Gregory gave me 2 years ago about white- labeling and my business revenues skyrocketed. I appreciate the call we had. I was such a young confused businessman at the time.

Gregory has the actual experience and knowledge to talk about what he does — which, in a world where anyone can pretty much claim anything these days using the megaphone of social media, or over-rely and rest on their laurels or connections, is both comforting and refreshing.

Frequently Asked Questions...
What if I have a full-time job currently?
Well, I won't lie to you... Buying a business requires focus and energy at the forefront. On average, we find it takes brand new investors about 6 months to close on their first deal, and an additional 3 months to begin to "automate it" for passive income after that. We have seen full-time workers make this happen... but of course they the special kind of person willing to sacrifice weekends out for a larger goal.
How much cash do I need to start the business buying process?
About every other training you'll find online will CLAIM that you can "easily buy a business with $0 down" -- but they fail to account for the cost of doing due diligence to ensure the deal is "safe". For this reason someone would likely need $2k for the vetting process - of course this can borrowed as well.
I don't want to just watch videos - can I get real life support on my deal in this program?
Yes, actually that's the truly unique thing about our platform. It's truly an academy on buying businesses and investing... We even have "office hours" (just like college) for you to get fast responses on questions, weekly group calls, AND you option to book a 90min 1on1 consult with Gregory and/or the team anytime you want.
