About

I'm on a mission to help 100 ex-athletes build 7-figure businesses. Over the last 15 years, I’ve built a career at the intersection of elite performance and business success. From professional rugby at Wasps RFC to working on 8-figure M&A deals at global firms like HSBC and Gallagher. I’ve helped scale, restructure, and position companies for sale, often unlocking millions in value for owners. Then, in 2024, I chose to apply that experience to working directly with business owners, helping them achieve their growth and exit goals. A passion that has driven me from the start. I had a hypothesis: That with the right mix of growth strategy, marketing transformation and exit planning, ex-athletes could turn their post-sport ventures into high-performing £1 million businesses. So, I have partnered with ActionCOACH, the largest and most successful business coaching company in the world. The results? Within months, I was coaching ambitious founders and putting businesses on track for profitable exits. My mission now is simple: Help 100 ex-athlete business owners, to build £1 million businesses. By helping them to scale profits, build reliable systems, and create a sellable business, for now or in the future. Ultimately, its about helping ex-athletes create wealth, freedom, and legacies they can be proud of. If you’re an ambitious business owner with a strong product or service but struggling to turn it into serious value, we should talk. DM me on Linkedin or email me at: joe@joeburton.com
