The Momentum Engine · Founding Cohort
Your business runs through you. Let's build the version that doesn't.
A 12-week program for founders of agencies and B2B service firms whose business still runs through them. By week 4, one thing that used to need you is running without you. That is your first domino.
$2,250 for the full program, founding rate. First domino moving by week 4. Five founding seats.
Former managing director of a VC-backed fintech. A 150% revenue turnaround. Twenty years in operating roles, up to 600 staff.
The pattern
You built it to grow. Now it can't grow without you.
- Every decision routes back to you. Your team waits on calls it should be making itself.
- Progress stalls when you step back. It moves when you push it, and slows the moment you stop.
- Delegation comes back needing rework. So it feels faster to keep doing it yourself. That is the trap.
That is not a you problem. It is a structure problem. The business was built around you, and no one has rebuilt it to run without you.
The shift
One thing running without you by week 4. The whole business by week 12.
We take one thing at a time off your plate until the business holds its shape when you are not in the room. You leave with the system itself, a one-page Compass, a Decision Map, and a delivery rhythm your team runs without you.
Every decision routes back to you.
The business runs through your team.
Your 12 weeks
The 3 D's, installed in order.
A structural intervention, not a course to study. One weekly live call, the templates, and direct access when you are stuck. Plan on 90 to 120 minutes a week.
- 01
Direction · Weeks 1 to 4
Build your Operating Compass, the one page your team runs on so they stop bringing you questions you should not be answering. By week 4, one workflow runs without you. Your first domino.
You leave with: the Operating Compass - 02
Decisions · Weeks 5 to 8
Install your Decision Map, a clear picture of who decides what and to what standard, so the calls that pile up on you get made by the people closest to them.
You leave with: the Decision Map - 03
Delivery · Weeks 9 to 12
Move the next pieces of work off your plate and lock the system in, so it keeps running after we finish. You leave with a repeatable way to take anything off your plate.
You leave with: the Delivery rhythm
Who you work with
You work with the operator who built it.
Twenty years running operations with full P&L and a board to answer to. As managing director of a VC-backed fintech I ran the turnaround: revenue up 150%, margins doubled. I have rebuilt the operating structure of businesses from a dozen people to a few hundred.
I burned out being the bottleneck in my own business before I built the systems that got me out. The Momentum Engine is that exact operating system, and it comes from how operators describe what is breaking, not how coaches do.
"His thought process into managing an organisation's operation is admirable, and has always done best for the business. I would be honoured to work with him again."
The founding offer
The full 12-week program. Founding rate, first five seats. Or three payments of $750. Standard is $2,850. Already did the Operating Audit? Your $1,500 credits toward your seat.
A fractional COO who installs this kind of thinking runs $8,000 to $10,000 a month. You install it into yourself and your team, keep every part of it, and pay a fraction of that once.
What you get
- A weekly live call, Tuesdays, 60 minutes, with hot-seat time on your bottleneck
- The Operating Compass, one page, yours to keep
- The Decision Map that gets you out of the approval queue
- The Delivery templates that move work off your plate for good
- Every call recorded, in a library you can hand to your team
- Direct support between calls, 24-hour weekday turnaround
- A small room of four other founders solving the same problem
Your protection
- The 4-Week Domino Guarantee: do the work for four weeks and if one thing is not running without you, every dollar comes back
- You keep the Compass and the Decision Map, whatever happens
- The Non-Compete Promise: no two members ever compete for the same clients
Five founding seats. There are no testimonials yet, and that is exactly why the founding rate is what it is. You are one of the first results.
Before you join
The questions founders ask.
Isn't this just coaching?
No. Coaches ask questions. I install operating structure: a one-page Compass, a Decision Map your team uses now, and a delivery rhythm that runs without you. Coaching works on you. The Momentum Engine works on the business.
How much time does it take?
About 90 to 120 minutes a week. The 60-minute call plus a short worksheet. This is an operating system to install, not a course to sit through, and it starts buying back your hours by month two.
Why no case studies yet?
This is the founding cohort. You would be among the first results, which is exactly why the founding rate is what it is. The proof is the architecture itself, the Compass and the Decision Map, and you keep all of it. The guarantee backs it.
Will a competitor be in the room?
No. I screen every cohort so no two members compete for the same clients. You can talk openly about where the business is stuck.
What if it doesn't work?
Do the work for the first four weeks and complete your Compass. If one thing is not running without you by then, you get every dollar back and you keep the Compass and the Decision Map.
Stop being the thing holding your own business back.
