Built to Scale: Forward-​Growth in 2026

Built to Scale is created for owners of manufacturing, industrial, construction, service, and trade businesses who want to expand without causing chaos.

This micro-summit provides the three key components of a scalable company: financial clarity, leadership capability, and a marketing engine aligned with your 2026 growth goals.

If you’re a business owner who’s been wearing every hat, you already know growth isn’t a single decision—it’s a system. You’ll leave with simple frameworks you can use immediately and clear next steps to support your business's growth.

• The difference between organic growth and growth through acquisition—and what each demands from your people, processes, and cash.
• How to prepare roles, rhythms, and standards so “letting go” doesn’t tank performance.
• How to align marketing strategies and tactics with business development/sales with dashboards that show ROI (not just activity).
• What to track, how to decide, and where to invest first as revenue scales.
• Why credibility, consistency, and relationships still win (even in an AI world)—and how to build them on purpose.

Owners and principals of companies who are:

• Preparing to scale or get unstuck from a plateau
• Empower and equip team members and leaders for effective and sustainable growth.
• Seeking marketing systems that actually translate to pipeline and revenue
• Wanting financial visibility to prioritize the right growth moves

NOTE: We’re keeping this event focused on owners/executives to protect the room and maximize value.

• You’re primarily attending to sell services to the room
• You’re looking for a one-size-fits-all framework pitch
• You’re not in a decision-making role
