I help fellow entrepreneurs and their leadership teams say what they really think and get what they really want - via EOS and facilitating hard convos
Jake has started 7 businesses since age 23 with triumphs and train-wrecks, rounds of investments, and way more pivots than he originally thought possible.
He has sold everything from 1/4 million dollar software contracts for a real estate tech start-up he helped grow from 20 to 200 people…to scooters that he imported from China and meat door-to-door!
Jake was also the founding moderator of a peer-to-peer advisory event called House of Genius where over 7-years he moderated hundreds of roundtable sessions and thousands of entrepreneurs and helped grow the organization to 20 cities in 3 continents.
Having seen behind the curtain at hundreds of companies, Jake saw that the TV version of entrepreneurship (which is shiny and sexy…) is a complete fairytale. The reality is that it’s hard and there’s no manual.
Then Jake’s wife (who is a fractional CFO) introduced him to EOS and he read the book Traction and realized that there actually IS a manual. His first reaction was to get upset – where was this 15 years ago!? His second reaction was to go all in as an EOS implementer – to help entrepreneurs in a way he wishes he had been helped.
I speak entrepreneur - fellow visionary here, fellow scrappy hustler.
Blew up 7 of my own businesses: 4 in a bad way, 3 in a good way :)
Grew up a class clown who learned timing, where the edge is, and eventually tact.
Honed moderator chops over 100s of roundtable sessions with 1,000s of entrepreneurs prior to EOS.
Say what you really think out loud and it's going to be OK, in fact, that thing you're scared to say is probably what's holding us back.
We'll get there, I'll help.
I was skeptical at first — we’ve tried a lot of systems over 48 years. But this one, with Jake leading us, stuck. We’re finally solution-driven, not just talking about things.
Jake is a partner we trust because he’s not afraid to hold us accountable and demand answers to the hard, foundational questions. He’s direct, tough, and honest — exactly what we needed.
Jake brought an energy and fearlessness to the process that was exactly what we needed.
Now we're a year in [with Jake] and the decisions that we've made, and the progress we've made, and the impact in one year is mind blowing to me.
