CATALYST: A Business Acquisition Bootcamp
Learn how to
cash-flowing businesses in just one weekend.
Are you ready to level up your portfolio to include solid, cash-flowing businesses?
Maybe you've bought real estate, and are finding it hard to find the kind of deals you used to buy - finding it hard to make the math "math" - higher interest rates, premium prices for crappy houses...
Are you ready to buy those "silent", "boring", businesses that you know generate a killing for their owners? You know, the ones you see in clinic where you can tell the patient is among the silently wealthy who "owns a couple of businesses around town"?
Does it trouble you that private equity is buying up medical practices, while doctors get the short end of the stick?
What if you were
ONE DEAL AWAY
from a business that
replaced your clinical income
gave you life options, and
turned you from "employee begging for time off" to business owner calling the shots
Designed for busy professionals, especially doctors
Break free from the medical "catch-22" and create the financial independence you deserve
Break Free From The Medical Treadmill
This intensive 3-day bootcamp is designed specifically for busy professionals who need to generate meaningful income outside of their primary career.
For Busy Doctors
You're caught in the healthcare "catch-22" - too busy earning income in medicine to explore alternatives, yet desperately needing financial alternatives.
Kickstart your Next Level
Kickstart your business acquisition journey with focused intensive action. One successful deal can replace your clinical income. Get away, learn, and prepare to make big moves.
Get Actionable Training
Learn what you need to know about finding, funding, scaling, and even exiting cash-flowing businesses that deliver real financial freedom.
The Perfect Opportunity
A once-in-a-generation wealth transfer is happening now
The Setting
Millions of business owners from the Baby Boomer generation are retiring, looking for successors to take over the businesses they've built over decades.
These are established, profitable businesses that serve their communities—ranging from manufacturing and distribution to services and technology.
These owners are searching for capable hands to continue their life's work and legacy into the next generation.
For every seller, there are only a few qualified buyers—creating an unprecedented buyer's market.
For You: The Medical Professional
The Golden Handcuffs
You're well-compensated, but completely dependent on trading time for money. The moment you stop working, your income stops.
Increasing Job Insecurity
With private equity buyouts, hospital consolidations, and advancing AI, your position and compensation are increasingly vulnerable.
Beyond "Side Gigs"
Traditional side hustles rarely generate meaningful income compared to your medical salary. Business acquisition can replace your clinical income in ONE transaction.
The solution isn't working more—it's owning cash-flowing companies!
