06Who's behind it

SMB Advantage is built by Ben Eklof, who built a $10M brand on brute force.

More hours, more effort, and him in the middle of everything. The business grew, but it never ran the way he pictured it.

He went on to run a $100M P&L portfolio of brands across Amazon, Walmart and DTC. Ten years inside real businesses showed him where the time and money leak.
