Here's the brutal truth most business owners don't want to face:
You're stuck.
Stuck working IN your business instead of ON it. Stuck competing on price because you can't articulate why you're different. Stuck implementing the same tired strategies as every competitor in your industry—strategies that stopped working years ago.
And the worst part? You know there's a better way. You've seen other businesses dominate their markets while you're fighting for scraps.
The problem is you're missing the strategic frameworks that separate businesses that survive from businesses that thrive.
What if I told you the problem isn't your work ethic, your product, or your market?
The problem is you're missing the strategic frameworks that separate businesses that survive from businesses that thrive.
I'm Michael Barbarita, and over the past 17 years as a strategic CFO and business implementation coach, I've helped hundreds of business owners break free from this trap.
I took my own ski retail business from $2.5M to $8M in just 5 years using these exact strategies. I've helped a manufacturing company go from losing $250,000 to a $6 million sale. I've helped clients generate $100,000+ in free cash flow in less than two weeks.
How? By implementing business and financial strategies that their competition doesn't even know exist.

This Isn't Theory. This Is What Actually Works.
I didn't learn these strategies in business school. I learned them by building businesses from the ground up, making costly mistakes, selling companies for multiple 7-figures, and implementing these exact frameworks with clients across dozens of industries.
The manufacturing company that went from $500K in losses to a $6M sale? These strategies.
The retail music company that generated $100,000 in additional cash flow? These strategies.
The clients who've achieved exponential growth in 3-5 years? These strategies.
And now they're yours.
