Brand new business owner

Krista says:

Working with Beau has been an incredible experience! He is always available and goes above and beyond to answer questions and guide me through the process. I learned so much in his 7-week cohort—it was truly invaluable. With his help and guidance, I am now finalizing my franchise purchase, and I feel completely confident and safe in his hands. I couldn’t recommend him more!

Praise and Testimonials

I’ve worked with Beau for several years and he has been a great referral source for commercial real estate loans for our bank’s nationwide SBA lending program. Beau is very knowledgeable in commercial lending and excels with clients seeking to purchase their first business. He is also a very talented marketer and the utmost business professional.

Carey Hofferber, BDO-Senior SBA Specialist

Beau is one of those people who genuinely knows how to bring the right people together in a way that creates real value. I saw that firsthand through his work on the Business Ownership Summit.

The Summit delivered practical, grounded advice for aspiring franchise owners, and Beau did a great job pulling together professionals from different disciplines and keeping everything focused, organized, and useful for the audience. It wasn’t fluff. It was real-world guidance for people seriously considering business ownership.

That experience naturally turned into an ongoing working relationship. Since then, I’ve stayed in close contact with Beau and anytime I have a client who needs SBA support, Beau is who I send them to. That level of trust is earned.

He’s professional, responsive, and easy to work with, and I’ve truly enjoyed working alongside him.

Coleman SBA Loan Broker of the Year

Beau was awarded Coleman SBA Loan Broker of the Year award for 2025.

Beau writes in his acceptance, “With 27 years of experience in lending and finance, I have dedicated my career to helping entrepreneurs access the capital they need to start, acquire, and expand businesses. In 2024, through Emerge Lending Group, I helped countless small business owners secure SBA 7(a) and 504 loans, enabling them to achieve their entrepreneurial dreams. My expertise in SBA lending, combined with my deep understanding of franchise financing and business acquisitions, has allowed me to streamline the funding process for clients, ensuring they are well-prepared to secure the capital they need.

“Beyond lending, I founded Business Ownership Coach, a franchise consulting firm dedicated to helping aspiring entrepreneurs navigate business ownership opportunities. My mission is to guide 100,000 entrepreneurs toward business ownership over the next decade and I’ve made significant progress toward this goal through my podcast, virtual events, and educational initiatives, which have attracted over 12,000 attendees to date. As a member of NAGGL and the Coleman Broker Roundtable, I continue to refine my expertise, staying at the forefront of SBA lending and small business financing.

“I’m honored to receive this recognition and remain committed to empowering entrepreneurs with the tools, knowledge, and capital they need to succeed.”
