Trusted insights about sales orgs available to candidates during the hiring process is non-existent, resulting in a hiring experience that is unbalanced and flawed.  This has manifested itself in skyrocketing attrition, dropping quota attainment, and reps in roles that are not a fit.  RepVue is challenging this status quo and flipping the odds to the favor of the candidate during the hiring process.

Over/Under of IPOs from this list at 4.5? 

It's feasible that very few from this list IPOs in 2026, as it will depend on how the macro conditions evolve. If it becomes favorable we could see 6 or 8.

Also we've seen ridiculous access to private capital for these orgs over the past several years, so why would they bother having to deal with public company requirements/regulations, etc?

As for the over/under...  I'm taking the OVER.  Let's go!

It took 20 years and 3 companies to realize I was building the wrong life.

I used to think success meant chasing titles, equity, and comp.

Then I turned 40 and faced the truth:

👉 I'm not wired to be an employee.

In my 20s, I led the turnaround of an 8-figure business.

Then another in B2B, closing 6–8 figure deals.

I broke into tech using LinkedIn. Got hired. Got promoted.

But something always felt… off.

I had the income. The equity grants. The security.

But I didn't have time. I didn't have peace. And I wasn't present with my family.

After COVID layoffs and back-to-back burnout, I hit my breaking point.

No safety net. Just a belief that something better had to exist.

So I walked.

Started over in real estate. Commission only. No special head start.

Since then:

✔ Built and exited 2 companies
✔ Launched Real Estate Deal Makers 
✔ Partnered with my mentor to help SaaS leaders do the same

Today, I help SaaS executives and founders turn equity and W-2 income into passive cash flow - averaging 30%+ cash-on-cash returns on turnkey rental properties.

No tenant headaches. No property management. No quitting your job.

Just off-market deals that most investors miss, fully managed, cash-flowing from day one.

Our clients are stacking $300–$500/mo per property in net cash flow while staying in their SaaS roles.

→ So they can become work-optional 
→ Diversify beyond stock options 
→ And build generational wealth with tangible assets

Most don't want to leave SaaS. They just want freedom when the right moment comes.

That's what I help them build.

Not with hype. Not with overnight promises. With calm, proven execution backed by 3 companies, 2 exits, and decades of deal-making.

We work with a small number of SaaS leaders at a time so every deal gets the attention it deserves.

DM me "turnkey" if you want to see our latest 30%+ deal breakdown.

We're cash buyers of off market properties nationwide. We sell to private investors and hedge funds looking to fix and flip or hold for longterm rental.

Four surprises. Four reactions. One year that changed everything for our family.

Seven years ago, things fell apart. 

Screwed out of a large bonus, followed by an unexpected 60% paycut, I left my first 6 figure role after 4yrs growing the business. 

I was in a rough spot and financially stressed as we had our second daughter due in the next few months. 

My in-laws helped with some expenses as we were trying to keep our head above water. 

It took time to fully replace the income.

I told myself I'd pay them back one day.

This year, I finally could.

We surprised them with an 8 day cruise in a suite. 

But that wasn't the only surprise.

I surprise my wife and daughters to see Forrest Frank at Madison Square Garden in June. My oldest daughter who's more reserved like me let out a sound of joy that was both surprising and terrifying lol. 

I surprised Stacey Hinkle  3 weeks before Christmas that she could put in her two weeks and retire from her PA job. She cried.

Then surprised her a few weeks later with her dream car. She cried again. 😂

A year ago, none of this was possible. As I walked away from my w2 determined to take back control of my time and income. 

Let's be honest majority of tech OTE's are make believe and I was done chasing the carrot for a 10% cut of what I did close. 

So we cut back on everything. No beach trips. No summer programs. No golf. Just time together and trusting the process.

Now we're in a position to give back to the people who believed in us when we had nothing to show for it.

That's the part nobody talks about.

Building something isn't just about the money.

It's about what the money lets you do for the people you love.

What's a moment you've been waiting to make happen for someone?

Your manager wants camera on.
Your CRM wants 50 activities logged.
Your VP wants the Zoom recording.

I took my morning calls on a 2-mile walk by the lake.

60° weather. No screen. Just conversation.

You don't realize how unnecessary most of that stuff is until you step out of the SaaS echo chamber.

When you own the business, one metric matters: net profit.

And you get to decide how to get there.

Got off a call. Weather warmed up. Asked my wife if she wanted to golf. 20 minutes later she made her first...

PAR!

Two years ago, this wouldn't have been possible.

No blocking off my calendar hoping my manager didn't see it. No having to be available in case I had to answer a call.

For her? Would've been impossible. Her PA job required at least 60 days notice and even then her time off was never guaranteed to get approved.

2026 is the first year neither of us have a W-2.

A lot of people wanna jump into entrepreneurship to make more money.

But the true win is owning your time. Being able to just pick up and do what you want without justifying it, explaining yourself to anyone, or feeling bad about it.

This is the life we envisioned for over a decade. A lot of people said "yeah right" when I've shared or now it's "must be nice."

But my delusional optimism came to fruition.

And I wouldn't change it for anything.

PS - Stacey Hinkle's Par details 

Ego Free golf

1. Half hybrid swing 
2. Green side putt. No 60° hero shot.
3. Left with a 3 inch tap in.

All using my clubs. We're getting her fitted right now. Her default shot is a draw...I swear I'm not jealous 🥲😅
