Every founder hits the same wall.

The business that was supposed to set you free now can't survive a single day without you. Your inbox is a fire hose. Your team needs you for everything. And somehow, you're working harder than ever and taking home less.

Here's the good news: the problem isn't you, and it isn't your team. It's that your company is missing a system… one simple enough to sketch on a napkin, and powerful enough to change everything.

The Million Dollar Napkin delivers that system inside a story you'll actually want to read: a business fable about a founder on the brink, a mentor with a marker, and the napkin that saved a company. Then it hands you the complete playbook so you can do it yourself.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Get your entire company aligned on one page (literally… it fits on a napkin)
• Build a business that grows because of your team, not because of your hustle
• Replace daily firefighting with a handful of numbers that tell you exactly what to fix
• Step out of the day-to-day without watching everything fall apart
• Make owning your business fun again
