A few happy sellers…
Marc is, simply, one of the smartest people I know. His unique blend of formal education, business management consulting, constant learning, and “get it done” practicality set him apart from most business leaders. When I was going through the emotional experience of selling my e-commerce brand, I was thrilled when Marc chose to add it to his Run Success portfolio.
One of the mistakes I’ve made in the past is fighting for a majority stake only to be stuck holding the bag of majority debt. Personally, I would rather have a smaller stake working with someone who has a solid track record of making good decisions to take businesses to the next level. I have learned so much in the short time we’ve worked together and it’s spilling over into other aspects of my life. It’s a very exciting time for me and I feel like anything is possible once again.

When we first started, we didn’t have a plan for how to become profitable. Tactical and strategic planning are important and we lacked both. Marc started with financial models to help us understand where we’d make the most profit. Then he helped with marketing, planning, budgeting, taxes—you name it, he coached us through it.
Since Run Success became a partner in the business, we have reshaped our team, streamlined our processes, and become more strategic with our planning and execution. Our revenues have soared and our dreams of expansion have become a reality. We’re opening additional centers which will allow us to impact more lives, which has always been a part of our DNA.
