My name is James Sherman. I spent about 18 years in Manhattan, mid-town area. And I developed a very excellent business with clients in Manhattan, and I wanted to have a great place to bring them to do all kinds of outdoor adventures on northwest of New York City. So, I made a deal on a property about 75 miles northwest of New York City with some investors, and they wanted me to meet some new investors. So, I was researching the best way to communicate and I came across Jeremy Harbour.

Well, what’s been amazing is the quality of the people and the enthusiasm of the people that are here and their experiences. For example, I’ve met a gentleman that owns his own $10 million remodeling and design company, which is a perfect match for what I’m looking to do with a virtual merger. I found another gentleman that’s a graduate of MIT that has his own company that does all different kinds of finance, all the way to public companies to do a joint venture with. And another gentleman that does business directly with family offices. So, the networking, the ability to do joint ventures, the ability to find people that match what you want to do in business really has been amazing. Extraordinary.

I have already started many companies and run many companies, but I’ve never merged or acquired a company. I never had any thoughts about doing that, but by reading the strategies that Jeremy’s implemented many times, I’m very excited about doing a virtual merger with some smaller to middle market companies. And grow them into, merge them into a larger holding company. Whether we go with an agglomeration or a direct sale to a larger company.

Anybody, especially if you’ve already owned or currently own or run your own small business, this is a perfect place for you to come and learn how to actually grow your wealth exponentially. You may very well be thinking that the only way you can grow your business is with more customers and more time, and you can learn how within maybe a month’s worth of time, you can actually be in the place to merge with another company. And grow your business exponentially in less than a year.

Well, if you own a two or three, $4 million a year company and you’re doing 20% margin on it, and now you’ve got a way to merge with another company of approximately equal size, within one year you could increase your wealth by $1 million.

Well, I went to Boston University. $160,000 for four years. Extremely expensive international relations, and there’s not anything there that I learned in college that was applicable to running and growing a business. So, if this program had been available, and I’d known about it when I was in high school, it’s exactly what I would’ve done as soon as I possibly could have. It’s incredibly implementable skills that you can put into your daily life right after the weekend.
