How is this different from other masterminds?

Platinum One is exclusively for high-revenue, multi-store shop owners,

ensuring advanced-level discussions and solutions.

How is this different from a 20 group?

20 groups focus on financial benchmarking and peer accountability around operations.

Platinum One is facilitated by experts who've scaled multi-store operations and focuses on enterprise-level strategy — leadership development, M&A positioning, exit planning, and building autonomous businesses. The conversations happen at a different altitude

Who are the facilitators?

Greg Bunch built and scaled Aspen Auto Clinic to multiple locations and over $100M in lifetime sales. Doris Barnes has 20+ years in automotive, including strategic growth work with multi-store operators.

Both have lived the problems you're facing and facilitate the room to keep conversations focused on strategy,

Who is typically in the room?

Multi-store owners generating $8M-$25M+ annually. Most are running 3-8 locations and dealing with leadership gaps, profitability optimization, or positioning for exit. These are operators who've figured out how to scale but are now focused on enterprise-level decisions

How do I know if I am the right fit?

If you're focused on CEO-level decisions — leadership structure, M&A strategy, enterprise valuation, succession planning — and you want to work through those problems with peers at your level, you're in the right place

How does the application or vetting work?

Book a free strategy call with our team. We'll discuss your business, revenue, goals, and challenges to determine if Platinum One is the right fit.

This is a peer room, so we're selective about who joins to maintain the caliber of conversation and collaboration

SHAPE

Your Legacy. Your Organization. Your Future.

Stop managing stores and start leading an enterprise. Platinum One provides the blueprint for sustainable dominance in the multi-store landscape.
