MY WORK

I’VE ALREADY DONE
WHAT YOU’RE TRYING TO DO

I don’t partner with businesses to give advice.
I partner to change outcomes.

Most owners don’t struggle because they lack skill.
They struggle because they’re trapped inside what they built.

No systems.
No leverage.
No way out of the chair.

This work exists for operators who already know more is possible —
but haven’t structured their business to support it.

No hype.
No motivation.
Just decisions that compound.

APPLY FOR PARTNERSHIP

LIMITED RELEASE

IDENTITY WEAR — NOT MERCH

Designed to reinforce standards when no one is watching.
No trends. No drops. No noise.
Clean pieces built to last — worn while you work.

Each item reflects the same principles behind the systems:
discipline, restraint, and long-term thinking.

WHAT PARTNERSHIP CHANGES

THE CORE SHIFTS

Image

CLARITY

I identify the real constraint and cut everything else.

Image

LEVERAGE

Systems, positioning, or distribution that multiply effort.

Image

STRATEGY

Offer, model, and growth architecture built for scale.

Image

DIRECTION

One decision that changes what you do next — and what you stop doing.

Image

JUDGEMENT

You borrow my experience instead of paying for mistakes.

Image

PARTNERSHIP

Equity, rev-share, or hybrid structures where it makes sense.

Most partners don’t change overnight — they change permanently.

PARTNERSHIP PHILOSOPHY

“Most shop owners don’t fail because they lack skill.
They fail because the business is built on them instead of beyond them.

Blake doesn’t offer motivation or theory — he installs structure.
Systems. Operators. Accountability.

This approach forces a different level of ownership.
Not hustle. Not hype.
Alignment.

If you’re willing to let go of control to build something that lasts,
this is the work that actually matters.”

— Partnership Framework
Built From Lived Experience

FOUNDER INSIGHT

WATCH THE MESSAGE

Why most shop owners stay stuck — and what actually changes that.

REAL PROOF. REAL WORK.

WRITTEN FROM EXPERIENCE

OPERATOR, NOT COACH

BUILT. EXITED. REPEATED.

FAQS

Who should apply for a partnership?

This is for barbershop and salon owners who want to build something that outlives their chair.
You should already be operating, already responsible for outcomes, and already aware that working harder isn’t the answer.

If you’re looking for coaching, motivation, or someone to hype you up — this isn’t it.
If you’re willing to give up control in exchange for systems, scale, and ownership alignment, you’ll understand exactly why this exists.

Most people are not a fit.
That’s intentional.

How do you get paid, and why equity instead of fees?

I don’t make money by selling advice.
I get paid when what we build has real value.

Partnerships are structured around equity, sometimes combined with system or infrastructure costs depending on scope. The goal is alignment — not transactions. If the business doesn’t grow, neither do I.

There are no commissions.
No revenue-share hype.
No guaranteed outcomes.

This only works when incentives are aligned and execution is real.

What happens after I apply — and what if I’m not accepted?

Applying does not mean you’ll be accepted, contacted, or sold to.
Every application is reviewed. Most are declined.

A “no” doesn’t mean never.
It usually means timing, readiness, or execution level isn’t there yet.

If your business changes, your clarity improves, or your standards rise — you can reapply. Many strong partners weren’t accepted the first time.

This isn’t a funnel.
It’s a filter.

“Clarity beats motivation. Execution beats intent.”
