The Integrator partner for visionary founders

Turn vision into profitable execution.

EKO is an operating partner for founders of established U.S. service businesses — roughly $2M to $10M in revenue — who have built something real and now need execution to keep up with the vision. We bring structure without bureaucracy, and protect what makes the company special.

The founder trap

The business grew. Then it started running through you.

It rarely happens all at once. Decisions route to you because you're fastest. Priorities shift because everything feels urgent. Process stays in people's heads because writing it down never makes the top of the list. None of that means a founder can't operate — it means the company has outgrown having one person hold the operating wheel.

Your highest-value work is vision, growth, innovation, and relationships. Everything that pulls you away from it has a cost you can feel but rarely see on a report.

What changes when it works

Not a transformation program. A business that executes.

Founder time back for growth, relationships, and big opportunities

Three priorities everyone can name — with owners and measures

Core work that's repeatable without depending on heroics

Growth you can see coming, and margin you can defend

A structure where good people can decide without waiting

A team that uses AI with real confidence and judgment

Two ways to work together

Operating leadership, and the capability behind it

In partnership

What this looks like in a real business

Go Team Events

National team-building company

During the partnership, Go Team Events grew year over year while strengthening sales strategy and execution, building performance systems, and increasing the founder's capacity for long-term strategy.

FestiFi, LLC

National WiFi solutions provider

During the partnership, FestiFi grew year over year while improving traction and efficiency across product, operations, and business development.

These are company outcomes achieved during the partnerships, in collaboration with each founder and team — not results claimed by EKO alone.

Why EKO is different

Partnership, not consulting

Execution alongside you, week after week — not a deck and a goodbye.

Skin in the game

Every Integrator engagement includes a meaningful performance-based component, defined for that business.

Just enough process

Simple, scalable systems that clarify the work without importing corporate bureaucracy.

Boutique by design

A small number of engagements so the work stays hands-on and genuinely senior.

Who this is built for

EKO is a boutique practice. Fit matters more than volume, so here's the honest version.

A strong fit

  • An established U.S. service business, roughly $2M–$10M in annual revenue
  • A visionary founder who wants to spend more time on growth and relationships
  • Real operational complexity — growth is happening, but execution is straining
  • Willingness to work in the business together, week by week

Probably not yet

  • Pre-revenue or very early-stage businesses
  • A search for a strategy deck rather than hands-on execution
  • Organizations that want heavy corporate process installed
  • Engagements with no appetite for shared accountability on outcomes
