You're building something big—and no one told you how complicated it would get.
You’ve got questions about taxes, legal structure, scaling, retirement…and every time you ask a professional, they point to someone else.

Your lawyer says, “Ask your accountant.”
Your accountant says, “You should talk to a lawyer.”
You’re left stuck in the middle—still without a straight answer.

You don’t have time to chase down appointments. You don’t know who to trust.
And you’re smart enough to know Google and AI won’t cut it when your entire business is on the line.

Sound familiar? Then it’s time to step into the Main Street Business Owner’s Situation Room—your new strategic command center for smarter decisions.

What Is the Business Owner’s Situation Room?

Think of it like the Situation Room in the White House…
Except it’s built for you, the small business owner.

This virtual hub gives you instant access to legal and tax strategies tailored to the four key stages of your business:

Start-Up & Structure

How to choose the right entity, structure your partnerships, raise capital, and build a solid legal foundation.

Optimize Operations

How to systemize your workflow, save on taxes, protect your assets, pay yourself (and your family), and stay compliant.

Grow, Save & Scale

How to scale your team, reinvest profit, manage risk, and explore powerful investing and retirement strategies.

Exit, Retirement & Legacy

How to plan your exit, minimize taxes, value and sell your business, and pass down your wealth.

These aren’t basic FAQs or surface-level answers.
They’re 40+ in-depth, vetted Q&A sessions from a trusted CPA and Attorney who’s helped over 10,000 entrepreneurs build and protect what matters most.

Why We Built This

We’ve heard it a thousand times:

“I don’t even know what to ask…let alone who to ask it to.”

That’s exactly why the Situation Room exists.

It was built for business owners who:

  • Don’t have time to chase down appointments
  • Can’t afford to keep guessing (or pay hourly rates)
  • Want clear answers, not conflicting advice
  • Need ongoing support from someone who actually understands small business

This isn’t theory.
It’s real-world guidance you can apply today, tomorrow, and as your business grows.

What’s Included?

When you enroll, you get instant access to:

  • 40+ deep-dive video answers, sorted by business phase
  • Two live mastermind fireside chats/month with Mark J. Kohler (ask your questions, get answers in real time)
  • Private community forum for business owners just like you
  • Tools and templates to take action with confidence

Whether you’re in startup mode or gearing up to sell, you’ll get answers to questions like:

  • “Should I hire my kids, and how?”
  • “What contracts do I actually need?”
  • “How do I structure a business sale to minimize taxes?”
  • “How do I protect my assets and legacy at the same time?”

Who This is For

This was made for the backbone of America:
Real entrepreneurs. Main Street business owners. Dreamers and doers.

Whether you’re:

  • Starting your first business
  • Scaling past six figures
  • Protecting what you’ve built
  • Planning your exit and legacy

The Situation Room gives you trusted guidance, right when you need it—no appointment required.

Why It’s Different

Most “advice” out there is one-size-fits-all.
This is custom-fit to your life as a business owner.

And unlike AI or blogs or well-meaning friends…
The answers here come from a seasoned CPA/Attorney with two decades of real experience working with business owners across the country.

This is your virtual command center—so you can stop guessing and start leading with confidence.

Step Into Your Command Center

Every business owner needs a place to gather intel, plan the next move, and act with confidence.

The Business Owner Situation Room gives you access to the strategies, insight, and expert support you’ve been missing.

No more dead ends.
No more “it depends.”
Just reliable answers, real-time support, and a community that gets it.

Join now and take control of your business future—one smart move at a time.
