MY JOURNEY
Why I started Get Levrg?
Financial acumen and a profit-first approach did not come naturally to me.
- I almost lost my business due to unprofitable growth
- I felt like a financial failure
I recognized that talent costs are critical for growth, but also a financial anchor. I was drowning to pay everyone but myself.
But I overcame my fears to think bold & different about how to scale profitably. My transformation five years ago started on a journey to profitability, evolved into offshore talent as an operating competitive advantage.
- Scaled two companies to 7-figure revenues, while profitable
- Achieved market-leading gross margins and CAC
- Scaled to new markets and customer segments I couldn’t otherwise serve with previous margins
- More profits, more retained earnings, more founder dividends
- Recaptured my passion for business
