Seshan (Say-Shawn) Nissanka's Linkedin Analytics

I skipped the safe path and built my own. From private banking suites to private acquisitions, I’ve spent over a decade scaling founder-led businesses that move fast and grow with clarity. → 7 years in private banking, advising high-net-worth clients at top-tier institutions → 10 + years running & growing 7 and 8-figure brands with the right talented people, smart systems, and real strategy → Now, Founder of Black Sterling Group, scaling and acquiring financial services & fintech firms between $1M–$10M What I Do: I help CPA firm owners scale with clarity, automation, and strategy, so they can grow with less stress and more options. → I run paid ads that bring in real, qualified leads (Key word: qualified) → I build systems and AI workflows that cut 10–20 hours of admin a week → I elevate brands to attract premium clients and prep for legacy or exit → I buy firms ready to scale or transition into something bigger Simple systems. Profitable growth. Clean exits. But this isn’t just strategy, it’s personal. In 2015, I took a solo trip to Australia and Bali that reframed everything. I realized the most important transformation isn’t operational, it’s internal. (Ask me about it) That’s why I write Letters to Ego, a founder-focused newsletter on identity, clarity, and the mindset behind high-performance leadership.
