Yes. Most Sprint buyers come in having never closed a deal. By month four, they have a buy-box, active conversations, and a clear path to close. The work isn't about how many deals you've done. It's about whether you're ready to become the kind of operator who runs them.

Less than you think. The 350+ door competitor I bought in 2020 closed with seller financing and minimal cash down. The Sprint teaches creative deal structures (seller financing, earn-outs, equity rolls, lender relationships) that let strong operators buy without writing a check for the full purchase price. If your business is healthy, you have more capital options than the broker world has trained you to believe.

The Sprint is a 4-month group program with a personalized roadmap, two group coaching calls per month, and Sprint community access. It's built for operators ready to do the work alongside other buyers. 1:1 Consulting is a 6-month minimum private engagement, capped at five clients, by referral only. The Sprint is the right fit for most operators. The 1:1 is for owners running serial buys or complex multi-entity situations who need private, ongoing strategic support.

What's guaranteed is that you'll leave with the buy-box, the absorption map, the capital clarity, the active seller conversations, and the buyer identity that makes all of it possible. Some Sprint buyers close their first deal during the program, others walk out with an LOI on the table, and others leave fully positioned to close on their own timeline. Buying companies happens on the right deal's timeline, not on a 4-month calendar, and the Sprint installs everything that makes the close inevitable when it comes.

A broker typically represents the seller, not you. Their job is to maximize the seller's outcome, run the process on the seller's timeline, and close at the highest defensible price. When you buy through a broker, you're buying a company someone else has already shopped to dozens of buyers, often at full ask, with limited room to structure creatively. The Sprint teaches you to source off-market, build relationships before the seller is ready to list, and structure deals on terms most brokered buyers never get access to. Off-market deals are how most operators win.

The Sprint teaches you how to source, evaluate, and close deals yourself, because the skill is worth more than any single transaction.  The relationships you build during sourcing are the same relationships that make boomer sellers say yes to you over the institutional buyers writing them cold emails. The buyers who win in this industry build their own pipelines.

The Buyer’s Window won't stay open forever. The boomer owners who built this industry are retiring, the PE-backed roll-ups are already moving, and every quarter you wait is another quarter the off-market relationships you need are getting locked up by someone who started earlier.
