Why Every Business Owner Needs the Right People in Their Corner

What would you do differently if you had to build your business all over again?

That’s the question at the heart of this month’s Lunch & Learn—a candid conversation with someone who’s lived both sides of business ownership.

After 25 years in the corporate world Kirk took the leap and started his own company from scratch. Like many entrepreneurs he pursued growth through acquisition faced unexpected challenges and ultimately made the tough decision to sell. The journey didn’t go as planned but the lessons he learned along the way were invaluable.

Now he’s committed to being the kind of advisor he wishes he had back then—someone who understands the risks the pressure and the deeply personal decisions that come with owning and running a business.

In this session he’ll share his story—the wins the missteps and the hard truths—and explain why having the right advisors in your corner can make all the difference. Whether you’re growing preparing to exit or simply trying to get some breathing room this is a conversation every business owner should hear.

Who Should Attend:

✔️ Business owners and entrepreneurs

✔️ Anyone building or planning for growth

✔️ Those considering a future exit or sale

✔️ Business leaders who want to learn from real-world experience - not just theory

About our Speaker - Kirk Wisnewski

After spending over 25 years in the corporate world, I took a leap of faith and started my own business from scratch. Like many entrepreneurs, I chased growth opportunities by attempting to acquire other businesses, hoping to fast-track success. While the journey didn’t go quite as planned and ultimately led to selling the business, the experience was invaluable.

Through those years, I learned firsthand the challenges, risks, and tough decisions business owners face — lessons you can’t fully grasp from the outside looking in. It was a humbling, eye-opening chapter of my life that shaped how I approach my work today.

Now, my mission is to be the kind of resource I wish I had when I was in the thick of building and running a business. I partner with business owners to help them navigate financial decisions, plan for growth, protect what they've worked hard for, and build a future beyond their business. Every conversation is guided by lessons learned, both the hard way and the rewarding way.
