Turn your operating experience into ownership — as an independent sponsor.
B2B MBA is an independent sponsor platform for experienced, mid-career operators. We equip you to acquire and grow a portfolio of businesses through your own Private Investment Firm — with capital relationships and a private equity-grade back office behind every deal.
The B2B MBA difference
- MBA²
- A performance designation earned through portfolio results, not coursework
- $1M
- Trailing 12-mo. distributions to reach Senior Partner
- Aligned
- We participate in the economics of each deal — we succeed as you do
- Keep W-2
- Stay employed until your first acquisition closes
A turn-key partnership that delivers a Private Investment Firm.
There are training programs that teach entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA). B2B MBA is not one of those. We deliver to each partner a Private Investment Firm (PIF) and a comprehensive, private equity-grade back office to support it. Each partner operates as an independent sponsor — acquiring on their own terms, with the flexibility to fund deals through their own equity and SBA financing or by raising capital deal-by-deal.
We designed the model so you can remain employed until you close your first acquisition — intended to replace your W-2 income. From there, you transition to managing your PIF full-time, execute additional acquisitions, and pursue your MBA².

Three classifications. One designation worth earning.
Partners are classified by the financial performance of their managed portfolio. All Senior Partners earn the MBA² designation — Masters in Business Acquisition and Administration — evidenced by portfolio results, not coursework.*
Associate Partner
Where every partner begins — establishing your Private Investment Firm and closing your first acquisition. Aim for $300,000 in trailing 12-month distributions.
Partner
Growing your managed portfolio and distributions as you execute additional acquisitions and optimize operations. Your target is $600,000 in trailing 12-month distributions.
Senior Partner
Mastery achieved. Senior Partners receive the MBA² designation, awarded when trailing 12-month distributions to your PIF reach $1 million.
* The MBA² designation is a private, performance-based designation awarded by B2B MBA and is not an accredited academic degree or credential.
The same support as a private equity firm — built for you.
High-income earning mid-career executives rarely have time to source and finalize an acquisition. Our back office removes that barrier so you can focus on growth and profitability.
