Consulting

Consulting works as a two-way street, both for a fee AND an equity position in exchange for directing the company vision and day to day.

Model A

Fractional COO / Consulting for a Fee

Epic Ventures offers fractional COO-level consulting, overseeing day-to-day operations, personnel management, and company vision. This is structured as an ongoing engagement with a defined monthly retainer.

Model B

Consulting for Equity

In select engagements, Epic takes an equity position in your company in exchange for directing company vision and day-to-day operations. This arrangement can also be structured as a pathway to full acquisition, if desired.

Built to Honor Your Work – and Fuel Good Work in the World

I started Epic Ventures to create a home for solid, everyday businesses whose owners are ready for a new season of life. My aim is simple: care for what you built, care for your people, and keep your legacy intact.

As a man of faith and family, I believe business can serve a higher purpose. The income our investments produce helps support gospel‑centered work and practical needs in the communities we serve – without ever turning your life’s work into a cold, financial transaction.

If that sounds like the kind of future you want for your business, I’d be honored to talk.

Why Owners Choose Epic

    A Safe & Trusted Partner

    You're not just handing off keys — you're choosing a caretaker. I come alongside as a sparring partner first and a buyer second, shaping a deal that fits your goals.

    Honest, Timeless, Wise

    No hard sell and no slick talk – just plain-spoken terms, straight answers, and careful decisions that would still make sense to your dad or granddad.

  • A man walking inside a warehouse or storage room holding a paper cup. Smart shelving stocked with boxes and papers are on the left, with sunlight coming through large windows in the background. Other people are working, organizing, or packing goods in the background.

    35+ Years in the Trenches

    I've started, grown, sold, and sometimes closed businesses. I know sleepless nights, payroll stress, and the pride of a team win – that shapes how I treat every owner.

  • A group of six diverse adults smiling and laughing around a wooden table in a cozy, well-lit room with bookshelves and large windows.

    Fun, Thorough, and Real

    We take the details seriously without losing the human side. Expect honest conversations and a buyer who talks cash flow and still loves bluegrass.

For Owners Who’ve Poured a Lifetime into Their Business *

If you’re a baby‑boomer‑age owner, this may sound familiar:

  • You started from scratch, carried the weight for decades, and stayed when others would have quit.

  • You’re feeling tired, a bit lonely in the decisions, and wondering how many more years you want to keep this pace.

  • You care deeply about what happens to your employees, customers, and reputation after you step away.

Epic Ventures is built with you in mind – owners who want a fair price, a smooth transition, and a buyer who treats people the right way.
