ABOUT US

Greg-Alexander

Hello. My name is Greg. I sold my boutique for nine-figures. I owned the majority of it and I had no debt, so after the sale, I never had to worry about money again.

After traveling the world, playing a lot of golf and shooting the shit for a couple of years, I got inspired to start Capital 54 to help the next generation of founders scale and sell their boutique professional services.

This is my Family Office where I invest the money I’ve accumulated.

No. I’m not a piggy bank and I’m sure as hell not a broker. I’m a guardian angel to folks like you trying to navigate the dangerous terrain of growing and, eventually, exiting their boutique professional service firms.

Whether you’re in need of capital or you’re looking to sell your firm (but you don’t know where to start), hit the button down below and let’s have a conversation.

Renzi Stone is Managing Partner of Capital 54.

He’s also an accomplished speaker and editorial contributor who’s been featured and quoted in PRWeek, Advertising Age, The New York Times and on CNBC.

A determined leader in the marketing and public relations fields, Stone has served as President of the Americas for IPREX and on the board of directors for the PR Council in New York. In 2015, he was appointed by then-Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin to the University of Oklahoma Board of Regents where he served until 2019.
