Entrepreneur of the Year

Who better to be recognized with a TITAN Business Award than Casey Clark, co-founder and CEO of Cultivate Brands, the award-winning business and financial operations advising powerhouse?

The entrepreneur and his team of fellow entrepreneurs have helped more than 4,000 other entrepreneurs in 160+ sectors grow, scale, and become exit-ready. Clients that work with Cultivate for 12+ months grow an average of 43% in top-line revenue and 65% in bottom-line profit year-over-year.

Quite the accomplishment in a sector with lots of failures, with nearly 1 in 5 calling it quits within a year. By the end of the fifth, about half will have gone under, increasing to 70% after ten.

Add the stressors of the current economy--inflation, high interest rates, and employee turnover. It's no surprise Staples found that 33% of small business decision-makers say they lack confidence in their access to the right resources and expertise to address inflation alone.

What's a business owner to do?

Where to find the right resources and expertise?

That's where Casey and Cultivate Brands come in, with their 1:1 coaching and tailored solutions.

As an advisor, Casey partners with clients on their vision and helps them figure out how to achieve their objectives. He's a master problem-solver, assisting them in getting over the hurdles in their businesses to reach their goals.

As the CEO, he actively practices what he preaches. Under his leadership, Cultivate itself has beaten all odds, experiencing explosive growth. In ten years, he has grown the firm from two to more than 100 employees, with Cultivate experiencing a 165% growth rate since 2021--372% since 2019--and making the Inc. 5000 all five years.
