Ken BIG Blake Building Builders
From military discipline to marketplace mastery, Ken Blake constructs the blueprints for success in real estate, business, and funding.
The Builder
Transforming vision into tangible assets. Specializing in real estate development, business systems, and strategic funding to create lasting wealth.
Starting A Business?
If you’re just getting started, this is where we take your idea and turn it into a real business—fast.
In one focused 8-hour session, we walk you through naming your company, securing your domain, registering with the state, obtaining your EIN, and setting up your business bank account so you’re officially recognized and ready to operate.
From there, we begin building your brand foundation—mission, services, and structure—so you’re not just “in business,” but positioned to grow and receive funding.
We eliminate confusion and give you a step-by-step system so you leave with a complete setup, not just information.
Start-Up / Brand Build – 8 Hour Setup
In Business
6 to 24 Months?
If you’ve been in business for a couple of years and you’re ready to grow, the focus shifts to structure, credibility, and access to capital.
We help you position your business to qualify for funding by ensuring your foundation is solid—EIN usage, business banking, credit profile, and proper classifications like SIC and NAICS codes.
From there, we guide you through building business credit, improving cash flow, and identifying the right funding sources without relying solely on personal credit.
This stage is about turning your business into a fundable, scalable operation that lenders and partners take seriously.


Expansion & Funding Readiness
Established Businesses
For established businesses, the goal is not starting or just growing—it’s refining and maximizing.
We take a deep look at your operations, identify what’s actually producing income, and eliminate the processes, roles, and expenses that are draining your profits.
Using a structured approach, we realign your departments, clarify roles, and tighten your systems so your business runs efficiently and intentionally.
This is where you move from busy to profitable—focusing on what works, cutting what doesn’t, and rebuilding your operation around performance, scalability, and long-term sustainability.
Optimization / Restructure / Profit Recovery
Our team works with maximizing your plans, strategy, and execution with the
G.R.O.W.L. Methodology.
Gross Margin: A company’s net sales revenue minus its cost of goods sold (COGS). In other words, it is the sales revenue a company retains after incurring the direct costs associated with producing the goods it sells, and the services it provides. The higher the gross margin, the more capital a company retains on each dollar of sales, which it can then use to pay other costs or satisfy debt obligations. The net sales figure is simply gross revenue, less the returns, allowances, and discounts.
Revenue Model: is a framework for generating financial income. It identifies which revenue source to pursue, what value to offer, how to price the value, and who pays for the value. It is a key component of a company’s business model. It primarily identifies what product or service will be created in order to generate revenues and the ways in which the product or service will be sold.
Operating Model: Describes the way an organization does business today – the as is. It can also communicate the vision of how an operation will work in the future – the to be. In this context it is often referred to as the target operating model, which is a view of the operating at a future point in time.
Working Capital: Also known as net working capital (NWC), is the difference between a company’s current assets, such as cash, accounts receivable (customers’ unpaid bills) and inventories of raw materials and finished goods, and its current liabilities, such as accounts payable.
Loans Financing: Based on your business type we explore the many types of grants and loans for starting and expanding your business, handling disasters, importing, and exporting goods, unsecured credit, with a combination of forgivable funding types.

The Strategic Consultation Is Just That.
It is a way to understand your ideas and goals, identify your pain points and come up with a plan to maximize your time frame.
Our conversation may be enough to point you in the right direction.
In some cases you may need or want more time and direction.
We can discuss that during or conversation.
