Creating operational balance

Benjamin Surman

I have transformed businesses by seeing what is possible.

As founder, operator, and investor, I spot patterns and turn them into growth. Every venture adds to the playbook.

The (Ad)Ventures

I was part of the growth for HostGator from a team of 50 people, through acquisition, to going public. I helped transform Uber Eats from concept to something your grandma uses. And recently at Somewhere.com, I stepped in as COO and we rocketed from 6 to 8 figures (still advising as the growth continues).

I now own and operate Balanced Company with my wife (also an ops genius), where we mix it up with investments in ecom, GovCon, real estate, and more.

Uncover your own balance

Creating balance has taught me to see patterns where others see chaos, opportunities where others see dead ends.

It is not about knowing everything - it is about transforming anything. That is the real superpower.
