Do You Own
Your Small Business
or Does it Own You?

Do you feel more like you own a job rather than owning a business? The pressures and demands of having your own small business make your dream of financial independence and freedom disappear.

A real business should provide you with more than just a modest salary. If you have a real business, it will provide:

• Equity in a business with significant value.
• More than just a modest salary, it provides substantial income.
• The free time to pursue other opportunities in your life.
• More time for family and personal activities.
• A business that doesn't depend on you being there all the time.
• Freedom from debt slavery.

My name is Steve Schlagel. I mentor, coach, and consult with small business owners just like you. I've mentored many over the last 30 years as a CPA, CVA, CFP, attorney and entrepreneur, building my own businesses and helping others achieve real success.

I know that business success can be elusive. New business opportunities fail 70% of the time. 

For the other 30%, most end up simply owning a job, not a real business. Instead of a small business that gives them the freedom the sought they end up with a self employment enterprise, an opportunity to work 60+ hours a week for a modest $50,000 to $100,000 a year and a business with no real value should they want to sell. Is this your story?

To breakthrough to real success you need a support system that's proven to work. Most truly successful business owners I've seen have a mentor, a coach and a team that inspire them.

Your mentor will help you to look at your business in new ways. They will determine what is really needed to get to the next level and help you focus on those activities to move forward. They ensure that you meet your personal and business goals.

Your coach keeps you accountable to meet those goals and objectives that you must meet to truly succeed. They also help tear down any internal roadblocks that you may have. We all have certain blind spots that can derail our plans.

Your team can include family members, friends and business associates who will encourage your and share in the celebration of your achievements. Your team can also give you tips and ideas that to help you over particularly difficult situations.

A mentor, a coach and a team make up your trusted support system. With them you will be able to build a REAL BUSINESS and avoid the chains of a self employment enterprise.
