  • #271 - Mark Ovrom will help you "Exit" your business successfully
    Serial entrepreneur John Ovrom founded Exit Consulting Group after selling his construction company in 2005. Navigating the selling process on his own was a long, difficult and frustrating experience that highlighted the lack of resources available to owners. Despite bringing in qualified service providers to assist in the process, no one provider was able to oversee the deal, negotiate terms, provide a strategic approach, and minimize taxes during the transaction. Providers focused on their own offerings, missing the larger picture.This approach proved costly, aggravating and time-consuming.Frustrated at the lack of creativity available in the market, as well as driven to help other owners like him avoid the missteps he encountered, John founded Exit Consulting Group. He vowed to give other business owners the option he never had:An experienced team skilled at crafting positive, fulfilling business exits.ECG focuses on assembling team members who understand the demands of running their own business and the stress and anxiety involved in exiting their business. Our agents and consultants are prior business owners with both corporate and small business experience. They know operations and are fluent in financials. Most importantly, our team’s strengths include insight, integrity and creativity.Our breadth of experience and in-depth understanding gives ECG unparalleled insight into the challenges owners face, as well as the endless ways to craft an exit.We know that every owner is unique, and our team is passionate about delivering success – as each client defines it.

  • #270 - Ryan Robbins of "Fireside America" hosts The Event NJ with Big names
    17 years of experience in the financial services business, host of the up-and-coming podcast Fireside America, founder and facilitator of a private networking group “The Pit”, personal business coach, proud Patriot.

    Ryan Robbins is a successful entrepreneur who has built multiple businesses and created a huge network of resources over the course of my career. He works with young business leaders and entrepreneurs to help them build a structure for their businesses as well as help them leverage my network of resources to learn and grow.

    More from Ryan himself: Do you feel as though the traditional system has failed you?I did. After being kicked out of High School my junior year, I couldn’t help but feel that the system had let me down. This experience reinforced my belief that the traditional model of success, years of schooling, and a 9 to 5 job, was not for me. Are you also someone who feels the traditional career model is not for you?If this sounds like you, then I might be the right person to help. As someone who has gained experience outside of the traditional mode of thinking, my goal is to help other people find success in similar ways as I help young entrepreneurs reach their goals. By granting young aspiring entrepreneurs access to small business owners who are doing high 6 and 7 figure revenues, we can help provide knowledge and direction that is not available in the traditional spheres.If you are looking for a way out of the 9 to 5 job that is making you miserable, I am here to help. I pride myself on being a real dude who builds strong relationships and businesses due to genuine interest and honesty. It is through this approach that I have been able to build a successful financial planning shop that allows my family and me to live the life we want to live.I have learned that even in the ever-growing competitive markets, I can punch way above my weight because of the relationships I have built. It is a strategic approach that builds on the foundation of the belief that we are stronger together.I do not claim to know everything because I don’t. But I do know how to find the right answers quickly and as a result, I have learned how to dramatically reduce the learning curve. It is in community and by working together that I have discovered to be the key to everything and why I continue to learn from others while sharing what I have learned with others. I want to grow together, to learn from your experiences as much as you will learn from mine.There are many people I have worked with in the past to help them grow their business from 50K a year to well over 200K per year. Watch my sit-down discussions with Phil Rizzo and Trevor West to hear firsthand how I have helped them achieve their business goals. These relationships and many more go well past the initial coaching and I take care to help them continue to grow and develop.My coaching philosophy is to share what I know with others and to connect like-minded people together so everyone can learn and grow. My extensive network of people, knowledge, and resources will be accessible to anyone through this group. Although I pride myself on being an excellent head coach, I know that no one knows everything. I see this as a strength that has led me to bring on other business professionals as strategic alliances who have different experiences, expertise, and knowledge than my own to round out what will be made available to you through this group. This way, we can approach any hurdles or problems together and find the best possible solution for you and your business.Like any resource, knowledge, or person you connect with, the majority of the outcome is a result of your action. I can provide you with knowledge, guidance, resources, and direction, but it is important for you to take the appropriate action. This is why I firmly believe that the most important things are 1) your mindset, 2) your team, and 3) the people you surround yourself with. Everything is about balance, and I look forward to showing you how I have applied these principles in my life and how these same principles can help you in yours.
