Own a Cash-Flowing Business: The PM's Path Beyond the Reorg

Yes. The skills that make you a good PM — prioritization, stakeholder management, reading systems, translating ambiguity into decisions — are the same skills that make a good small-business owner. You don't need an MBA. You need a structured playbook and someone who's actually closed a deal walking you through it. That's the course.

If you close one deal you would otherwise have walked away from — or walk away from one bad deal you would otherwise have closed — the course pays for itself a hundred times over. If you decide acquisition isn't for you, you'll have decided it on real numbers, not a hunch. Either outcome is worth $2,500.

No. Rocky acquired a 45-year-old business with zero personal savings, using a combination of seller financing, SBA-equivalent government loans, and an earnout. The course teaches the deal structures real searchers use — not 'no money down' theater. You'll learn which structures fit your savings, your risk tolerance, and your timeline.

Yes. Sessions are scheduled on Friday afternoons so they fit around a corporate work week, and all sessions are recorded if you can't make a date. The work between sessions (sourcing, reading P&Ls, drafting deal memos) is calibrated for 4–6 hours per week.

All sessions are recorded — you'll have access for life. If you want the live experience, you're welcome to re-attend the very next cohort once at no extra cost (single use, next cohort only). The cohort community and office hours run on the current cohort's schedule.

Cash-flowing small businesses in the $100K–$2M EBITDA range: brick-and-mortar service businesses (HVAC, accounting, landscape), e-commerce stores with proven products, professional services firms, and SaaS micro-businesses. The course is built for the range where your PM judgment gives you an edge over other buyers.

Books and podcasts give you the map. The course gives you the boots: a 4-week sprint, a live cohort doing the work alongside you, direct office-hours access to someone who has closed a deal, and a capstone deal memo on a real business you can take to a banker the week the cohort ends.

Easier — if you use it. A solo owner with the right AI workflow can run the marketing, outreach, bookkeeping, and customer-service load that used to require a team of 5–10. The course is built around using AI to run a leaner, more competitive operation than the previous owner ever could.

Mid-career PMs, operators, or analysts with $50K–$250K saved, a corporate paycheck, and a 6–18 month window to find a deal. The course is built for U.S. and Canada residents; international buyers are welcome but the financing structures will differ. Not built for: pure-financial buyers without operator intent.

Not always. Rocky did it with zero personal savings. The real question is which deal structure fits your situation — seller financing works for some buyers, SBA-style government loans for others, equity partners for a third group. The course teaches you to match structure to situation rather than chasing a single template.
