The Miami Business Connection Experience
Three days built to move your business forward — connect with the people who matter, build the plan you'll actually run, and sharpen the way you grow. One week, three distinct experiences, for Miami business owners.
Why Miami, Why This Week
ActionCOACH Benefic Group is investing in South Florida — and this week is where it starts. We're bringing the same planning, systems, and coaching that has helped owners across our markets build businesses that run without them, and we're doing it in one focused week designed for how Miami owners actually work.
Three days, three jobs: build the room on Wednesday, build the plan on Thursday, and build the pipeline on Friday. Come for one. Come for all three. Either way, you leave with people, a plan, and momentum.
Three Days, Three Experiences
Pick your day — or do the whole week.
Day 1 · Community
Partnership Connect Dinner
An evening for Miami business owners and the advisors who serve them — networking, dinner, and a short program with curated, assigned seating.
Dinner detailsDay 2 · Build
The Planning Intensive
A full-day, facilitated build. Leave with your 5-year plan, 2027 annual plan, and 90-day structure done — in the software, not on a sticky note. Capped at 6 companies.
Intensive detailsDay 3 · Workshop
The Open Workshop
A free 90-minute working session for established Miami owners — practical, specific, and done by noon. Light breakfast and networking included.
Workshop detailsDates are tentative. Registration and pricing details open soon.
Who This Is For
Built for established Miami business owners.
- Established Miami / South Florida business owners (past the startup stage)
- Companies doing real revenue that want a plan they'll actually execute
- Owners who want to bring their leadership team into the planning, not go it alone
- Advisors — CPAs, attorneys, bankers, fractional CFOs — who serve growing businesses
Your Hosts
Led by Tanner & Doug.

Doug Barra
Business Coach · ActionCOACH South Miami
Doug is ActionCOACH's South Miami coach and your host on the ground. With decades of business and coaching experience in the South Florida market, Doug is the local relationship behind this week — and he'll be facilitating and in the room across all three days.

Tanner O'Brien
CEO · ActionCOACH Benefic Group
Tanner is CEO of ActionCOACH Benefic Group and leads the planning build. His clients have grown from $47K to over $1.5M in annual profit in a single year and built businesses worth selling. He's flying in specifically for this week.
Proof It Works
Local owners who built businesses that run without them.
His own team told him to leave — so he did, and sold the company.
After 25 years, everything still ran through Michael Stoklosa. In 9 months with Doug, he built a team with enough ownership that they told him "we've got this — go." He sold the business and retired.
Grew the team from 3 to 12 — and 5x'd profit.
A machine shop owner doing everything himself. By attracting the right people into the right seats and building a plan, Adam Zimmer grew profit from $50K to $250K and now takes real vacations while his team runs the systems.
Questions
The basics, answered.
Can I attend just one day?
Yes. Each day stands on its own — join the dinner, the Planning Intensive, the free workshop, or all three. The three-day pass is the fullest experience, but there's no requirement to do everything.
Can I bring my team?
Absolutely — and for the Planning Intensive, that's the whole point. Your company registration includes two seats, with additional leaders welcome. The owners who plan alongside their team get buy-in that owners who plan solo never do.
Is there a recording?
No. These are live, in-the-room working sessions — the room and the facilitation are the product. You have to be there.
What if I can't make Thursday's Intensive?
Come Wednesday and/or Friday. The dinner and the free workshop are open to everyone; the Intensive is the deep, paid build for owners ready to plan their next year.
Where is it?
Everything happens in the South Miami · Coral Gables, FL area. Exact venue and parking details will be posted here as they're confirmed.
When can I register?
