The Owner Tax. The hidden bill you've been paying.

The hours never hit your P&L. The lost growth never does either. But every owner of a $1M to $10M business pays the Owner Tax anyway. Watch the full training: the formula, the live calculator, the Tax Map, and the four-move Reset.

What's Covered

The full framework.

02:00
The uncomfortable truth.
You scaled by being the doer. The skill that built the business is now the most expensive thing inside it. Every hour you spend in the work, the business quietly pays for it.
05:30
This is the Owner Tax.
Three brackets, one bill. The hours never show up on your P&L and no invoice ever arrives, but every $1M to $10M owner pays it in revenue the business never made.
09:30
The taxed week vs. the untaxed week.
Two calendars, side by side, same owner. One funds $35-an-hour operator work. The other funds the business. The difference is the tax.
13:30
The Owner Tax Formula.
Three numbers, every one conservative. The M&A-grade math valuation advisors use to price founder-dependency, defensible to your CFO and your spouse on the drive home.
18:00
The calculator, live.
Andrea, a $3M agency at 30 operator hours. Marcus, a $5M services firm at 25. Priya, a $10M product co at 20. You will be surprised which one pays the most.
24:00
The tax compounds.
It does not pause. Per year, per day, and the five-year number that makes the room go quiet. The longer you sit in the wrong bracket, the steeper the bill.
28:30
The Tax Map.
Where the money actually leaks, by category. Hand off in the wrong order and the tax stays put. The map shows the order that actually moves the number.
33:00
The Reset.
Four moves, in order. Same operator, different bracket. Which work to hand off first, which agent owns it next, and what the calendar looks like on the other side.
Key Takeaways

What you'll walk away with.

01
The Owner Tax formula.
The conservative, defensible math: revenue at a 10% strategic premium, a $35 replacement wage, a 2,500-hour owner year. Run your own number any time.
02
The three brackets.
Where you sit today, and what the jump to the next bracket is really worth. The bill is a function of the seat, not the effort.
03
The Tax Map and hand-off order.
Where the money leaks and the order to plug it. Get the order wrong and the tax stays on the books for another year.
04
The four-move Reset.
The exact sequence to move from the operator bracket to the owner bracket, and the agent that owns each piece of the work you hand off.
