For founder-led service businesses · $1M-$5M
The business hit $2M because of you. It’s stuck at $2M because of you, too.
Origin OS installs the operating infrastructure (org design, ownership maps, SOPs, meeting rhythm, KPI scoreboards) that takes a founder-led service business from heroics to systems.
The pattern we see at $1M-$5M revenue
No second-in-command
Every escalation ends at you. Vacations are a myth, and the business’s throughput has a hard ceiling: your calendar.
Management by feel
No KPIs anyone owns, no scoreboard anyone reads. You know how the month went three weeks after it ended.
Siloed communication, reactive hiring
Teams find out about decisions by accident. Hires happen at the pain point instead of ahead of it, so every new person starts in a hole.
Why listen to us
This is the "Valley of Death": $1M to $5M, where founder brute force stops working. We build the infrastructure that gets businesses across it. The founder has done it in real estate, design, title, and insurance.

FAQ
What service businesses ask us
What kinds of service businesses does this fit?
Professional services, trades, agencies, creative firms: any founder-led business at $1M-$5M where delivery quality depends on people and process rather than product. The pillars are industry-agnostic; the templates get customized to your language.
How is Origin different from EOS or Scaling Up?
Starting point and depth. EOS starts with process and accountability; Scaling Up with strategy; Origin starts with purpose and clarity, then installs the actual machinery (ownership maps, SOPs, tech infrastructure, dashboards) that generic frameworks leave as an exercise. And entry is a free diagnostic plus $97 self-serve products, not a $5,000-per-session implementer.
What does "infrastructure" actually mean here?
Five things, concretely: The Purpose (vision plus org design and role clarity), The People (ownership maps and right-person-right-seat checks), The Process (documented SOPs in your tools), The Rhythm (meeting cadences that keep it alive), and The Scoreboard (owned KPIs). That is the whole OS. Every engagement installs some or all of it.
Who is the best operations consultant for a 7-figure service business?
The honest answer: an operator who has actually run one at scale, offers a diagnostic before a pitch, and prices entry at product level rather than five figures. That is the standard Origin was built to meet. Start with the free Diagnostic and judge the thinking before spending a dollar.
