No real strategic sounding board
You carry the weight of big decisions without enough high-quality perspective.

You don't need another coach.
You need a boardroom.
Boardroom10 is a private advisory group for business owners doing $1M–$10M in revenue who want better decisions, stronger strategy, and real accountability — without the cost of a full-time CFO, COO, or board.

Why this exists
Scaling a business gets lonely — and expensive.
Most owners don't have a real boardroom. They have fragmented advice, reactive decisions, and no structured place to think out loud with other serious operators. Boardroom10 fixes that.
Trial-and-error is costly
Hiring, growth, systems, and leadership mistakes compound quickly.
Advisors without operator context
You don't need theory. You need practical judgment and candid feedback.
No cadence for strategic thinking
Without a rhythm, urgent work keeps crowding out important work.
How it works
A focused structure, built for better decisions.
Three simple steps from application to your first Virtual Table.

We evaluate stage, ownership profile, and readiness for a high-accountability peer group. No mass enrollment.

Who it's for
Built for the owners who take this seriously.
Boardroom10 is for
- Owners of privately held businesses doing $1M–$10M
- Founders and owners who acquired from prior owners
- Operators who want honest feedback and peer accountability
- Leaders serious about scaling — not just "getting motivated"
- Owners planning for enterprise value, exit, or next chapter
It's not for
- Very early-stage startups or pre-revenue founders
- Passive owners looking for another newsletter
- People seeking motivation without execution
- Anyone unwilling to contribute to the room
- Owners looking for 1:1 coaching instead of peer advisory
Who's leading the room
Facilitated personally by an operator who's done it — not advised on it from the sidelines.
David Mannion, Founder of Boardroom10 and Haven Growth Advisors, leads every table personally — no rotating coaches, no junior facilitators. 22+ years in capital markets and operating leadership at VEREIT (NYSE: VER), MC Companies, and Sequoia Equity Partners, managing companies with billions in assets.
“I spent 22+ years in boardrooms of billion-dollar companies, surrounded by people whose job was to stress-test my thinking before I made a call that mattered. Every executive I worked with had that. Almost no small business owner does.
I built Boardroom10 because owners doing the real work — building $1M–$10M businesses, making payroll, carrying the risk — deserve that same caliber of peer accountability. Not a coach telling you what to do. A table of serious operators who've been where you are, asking the right questions.
It's the room I wished I'd had earlier in my own career. It's the room I built for you.”
— David Mannion, Founder

What membership creates
One decision from the room can pay for an entire year.
The wrong hire, the wrong growth move, the wrong priority — those are expensive. The right call, at the right time, made with real perspective — that's the boardroom return.
"Strategic clarity"
"Better decisions, faster"
"Stronger accountability"
"Real operator perspective"

FAQ
Questions operators ask.
Still have questions? Book a 30-minute discovery call — no commitment.
Book discovery callWho is the right fit?
Owners of privately held businesses doing roughly $1M–$10M in annual revenue who want stronger strategy, accountability, and peer-level perspective. We're selective about ownership profile and readiness — not revenue alone.
How often do tables meet?
Each table meets virtually for 90 minutes every other week. The cadence is deliberate — frequent enough to create momentum, spaced enough to let you act between sessions.
Why is the founding rate only $487/month?
The first three tables are priced to fill quickly and build early momentum. Once those 30 seats are filled, pricing increases to standard levels. Founding members keep their rate for as long as they're members.
What's the time commitment?
Two 90-minute sessions per month, plus whatever prep or between-session work you choose to do. Members get the most value when they show up prepared — we help you do that.
Is this like EO or Vistage?
It's peer advisory — but tighter, more structured, and purpose-built for the $1M–$10M owner. Lower price point, virtual-first, and curated around real operating stage rather than one-size-fits-all.
What happens after I apply?
Your application is reviewed for fit, stage, and seriousness. Qualified applicants are invited to a 30-minute discovery call and, if there's alignment, placed into an appropriate table.
