Ambitious leaders, bold builders, and growth-minded go-getters
This is your business WAKE-UP call
You’ve been grinding. You’re hustling. But if you’re honest… you’re stuck. Momentum has stalled, the to-do list never ends, and the breakthrough you’re chasing feels like a distant memory at this point.
This is where the climb begins.
And The Ascent Business Builders Summit is the first step. Join the biggest business event in the area—a high-impact, half-day experience built for ambitious entrepreneurs, business owners, and bold leaders who are ready to finally get traction, smash their goals, and continue their journey to the top.
You’ll walk away with:
- Mindset shifts that ignite real momentum
- Tools to create clarity and focus (finally ditch the guesswork)
- Proven strategies to crush burnout and get your drive back
- Connections with the sharpest business minds in the community
- Fresh perspectives to spark innovation and creative problem-solving
- Actionable frameworks you can implement immediately to drive results
- Confidence to make bold decisions and pursue big opportunities
- Inspiration from real success stories that prove what’s possible
Those that will benefit the most are:
- Owners with multiple employees and are ready to scale with confidence and certainty to $10M and more
- Emerging entrepreneurs hungry to get to $1M in revenue
- Employers desperately eager to build their people who will then build the business
- Owners at any level feeling the pains of "overwhelm", stuck in the routine and fighting for freedom
- Entrepreneurs craving a community of other committed and ambitious entrepreneurs
Those that will NOT benefit are:
- Hobbyists or side hustlers who aren’t ready to treat their work like a real business
- Business owners content with staying where they are and avoiding growth challenges
- Employers unwilling to invest in themselves and in developing their team
- Entrepreneurs resistant to new ideas
- Networkers looking for a quick pitch session instead of genuine connection and learning
If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building with clarity, courage, and conviction, this is your ticket to the summit.
