Investment Overview

Draft for discussion, 2026. Private & confidential. Projections, not promises (see the note at the end).

The Opportunity

Small and mid-sized businesses are under growing pressure from market shifts and AI disruption. Most are losing profit to hidden inefficiencies and outdated processes, but lack the expertise to find and fix them fast without breaking what already works.

The Solution

Endura is their operational execution partner, pairing deep hands-on delivery experience with the right mix of AI and automation tools.

Free audit: rapidly uncovers the biggest profit leaks and inefficiencies.
Quick-win implementation: fast fixes, AI and non-AI, that plug the holes, reclaim revenue, and stabilize operations, structured so the pilot is designed to return more than it costs and to prove the model before any larger commitment.
Ongoing partnership: embedded support for continuous optimization, implementation, training, and adaptation as the technology moves.

See It Pay for Itself

Check the leaks a business has, set rough numbers, and watch a pilot cover its own fee. Conservative industry averages; the free audit measures the real figures. (Interactive, best viewed live in a browser.)

Illustrative estimates based on your inputs and conservative industry averages. Actual results vary by business; the audit quantifies your specific numbers.

What's Included in the Initial Offering

Everything is delivered inside the ongoing advisory relationship; clients buy outcomes, not a tool list.

Never miss a customer: missed-call text-back, unified inbox, two-way texting, website chat assistants, automated voice call handling.
Turn interest into revenue: lead capture, instant lead response, pipeline management, email & text campaigns, booking & reminders, payments & e-signatures.
Look established online: modern websites, review management, local search visibility, landing pages & funnels, social presence, referral tracking.
See the business clearly: real-time dashboards, quarterly business reviews, ROI tracking (recovered revenue by leak), industry-specific market awareness.

Coming in a later phase, not part of the initial offering: custom AI agents built to each client, deep software integrations, bespoke process automation, multi-location management, and internal team tooling: tailored engagements added once the core is proven.

The Business Model

Paid-upfront first engagements, designed to return more than they cost, that convert intohigh-margin recurring retainers.
Capital-light delivery: when a task falls outside the core or the calendar is full, Endura brings in vetted freelancers, bills the client above cost, and keeps the margin. Capacity scales on demand with no fixed payroll, each engagement carries a small margin of its own, and it builds a bench of pre-vetted talent to hire from later.
Scalable through standardized playbooks, so growth does not balloon costs.
Proven before it's priced. The first engagements are a small, capped group of pro-bono clients: practice runs that prove the model and generate the first five-star reviews and case studies before a single paying client. The reviews unlock standard pricing; the case studies close the paid clients.
Starts with small and mid-sized clients, with a fast path to larger engagements as results and references build.

Why Now

You've seen my track record firsthand. This applies that same execution capability to a much bigger, timely market need, and the combination of real operational depth with practical AI and automation is rare and highly leveraged right now. Early capital accelerates client acquisition, delivery capacity, and marketing, turning proven ability into fast revenue growth and strong returns. And search itself is shifting: about 45% of consumers now use AI tools to find local businesses, up from roughly 6% a year ago. Getting clients found, on Google and in the AI answers, is a low-effort, high-margin service and a natural recurring anchor.

The Path to Profit

Monthly profit, from a conservative pace to the target pace a warm-market pipeline supports. Break-even lands around month 6 to 9. The step up in the second half is where pricing reaches its market tier (~10 reviews). Conservative planning throughout; the aim is to beat the plan. And the downside is bounded: even at half the target pace, the plan carries itself to profitability on the initial raise, with no second round ever needed.

Each Client Is Worth a Lot, and Worth More Over Time

One client runs a free audit, a paid pilot, then a monthly retainer for ~18 months, worth roughly $17,000–39,000 in lifetime value at standard pricing.
And that grows. Pricing deliberately starts low to win the first clients and their reviews, then steps up with credibility, pushing later clients toward $27,000–68,000+ each.
~36 million US small businesses, ~1.1 million in Georgia alone. Endura reaches strong economics on a few dozen retained clients, a reach-and-trust play, not a market-share play.

Pricing steps up as credibility builds, at roughly 5 and 10 five-star reviews. Existing clients keep their founding rate; the step-ups apply to new clients.

Your Return, and the Clients Behind It

Annual cash distribution per $25,000 invested (about a 10% stake), with the retained-client count each tier takes. Distributions are quarterly once the business is profitable and has built its reserve, then graduate to monthly.

Plus a buy-out at 2–3× your capital. A pre-agreed path for the founder to buy your stake back at roughly $50,000–75,000 on a $25,000 investment, at a formula set upfront. Your return is cash flow along the way and a capital event, not either/or.

$25,000 In → a Buy-Out That Grows the Longer You Hold

A pre-agreed buy-out at a fixed multiple of your capital, set on day one and rising the longer your money rides: 2× in years 1-2, 2.5× in years 3-4, 3× in year 5 and beyond. Distributions collected along the way come on top of this. Illustrative; the buy-out's timing is at the founder's option.

How Your Capital Is Protected

Limited liability. As an LLC member your exposure is capped at your investment. No personal guarantees, no debts in your name.
A defined exit floor. The 2–3× buy-out is a pre-agreed path out at objective pricing, so your capital is never stranded.
Low burn by design. Client-paid pilots and pass-through delivery keep the monthly cost base lean (~$10.6K), so the runway stretches and the business is not fragile to one slow month.
Founder pay comes last. The founder's draw steps down during the ramp and only rises after break-even, on revenue milestones, so nobody's return depends on the operator overpaying herself early.
A conservative plan. Every figure here is the planning case, not the optimistic one, with the levers named. The founder invests alongside you, contributing well-below-market labor tracked as capital, so incentives are aligned from day one.
A quality gate. The free audit means Endura only signs clients it is confident it can deliver for. Slow growth is fine; damaged reputation is expensive.

The Ask

Raising ~$50,000 to fund a four-month runway, formation, tools, and a contingency.
Offered at a ~$200,000 pre-money valuation: $25,000 is about a 10% stake.
The founder keeps majority ownership and full operational control; investors receive information rights and a vote on major events, not day-to-day operations.
