Break Into the 5%: Transform Your Business Into a 7-Figure Success Story
Hi, I’m Gary O. Shelton, also known as The Coaching King. Inspired by my grandfather, Lexington E. Sanders—a trailblazing entrepreneur who built a thriving business empire in the Jim Crow South—I’ve followed in his footsteps, leading businesses that have generated over $450 million in revenue. But did you know that only 5% of small businesses ever reach $1 million in revenue? I’ve been in your shoes, facing challenges and wondering how to break through to the next level. That’s why I created the 7-Figure Summit—a movement to share what I’ve learned and empower entrepreneurs like you to join that 5% and achieve extraordinary success.
