Your Questions Answered About Business Consulting
What is KAPS?
KAPS (King America Performance Solutions) is a performance and financial operating system for towing companies designed to increase profitability, improve operational execution, and prepare businesses for long-term scalability or exit.
How is KAPS different from other consultants?
Most consultants provide generic business advice.
KAPS installs a repeatable operating system backed by data, financial modeling, and real-world towing experience from real-world towing professionals with expertise not only in towing, but financial analysis and management, process engineering and effective training needed to more companies in the right direction.
Who is KAPS built for?
- Owners doing will sales less than $1M–$20M+ in revenue
- Companies stuck at a growth ceiling or stagnant profitability
- Operators preparing for scale or exit
- Owners who want financial clarity and control of their businesses who are willing to invest in and learn the skills required for success
Is KAPS only for large towing companies?
No—but it is built for companies serious about growth. Smaller operators will benefit, but the system is most powerful when there is enough scale to optimize.
What kind of results should I expect?
While results can never be guaranteed, most clients see improvements in:
- EBITDA margins
- Cost structure efficiency
- Revenue increases
- Cash flow predictability and planning
- Risk identification
- Decision making impacts
How quickly will I see results?
Initial insights occur within the first 30–60 days.
Material financial improvements typically occur within 90–180 days depending on execution.
Continued improvements as systems are refined and become scalable
How do you measure ROI?
Through:
- Cost-of-service analysis
- Call-driven revenue modeling
- Margin improvement tracking
- Monthly KPI dashboards
Will this help me understand my numbers better?
Yes. Most owners operate without clear financial visibility.
KAPS gives you true cost per call, true margins, and real-time performance data so realistic goals can be determined and progress measured.

Do you work with my existing accountant or team?
Yes. KAPS integrates with your existing financial and operational structure—we don’t replace it, we make it a tool you can actually use to run your operation.
Do you help with day-to-day operations?
Yes—KAPS connects financial performance directly to operations:
- Dispatch efficiency
- Fleet utilization
- Pricing strategy
- Call-type profitability
Will you tell me what to change in my business?
No. Your business is yours and your decisions are what drive your business. KAPS shows you what data is telling you, so that you can make and then track the effects of your decisions but more importantly, we show you why, backed by data. We don’t simply want to tell you, we want you to learn how to make decisions based on your own data that past decisions are currently producing.
Do you provide benchmarking against other towing companies?
Yes. KAPS compares your performance against industry peers to identify gaps and opportunities. No company’s individual data is ever shared, however and all data transfers are performed via encrypted services to secure servers.
Do you help develop managers and staff?
Yes. KAPS includes workforce development and leadership systems to reduce owner dependency.
What if my team resists change?
This is common. KAPS provides structured implementation frameworks to drive adoption and accountability.
Can KAPS help me grow my company?
Yes. Growth is driven through:
- Improved margins
- Better pricing strategies
- Operational efficiency
- Scalable systems
- And most importantly, discipline.
Can you help me prepare to sell my business?
Yes. KAPS prepares companies for:
- Higher valuation multiples
- Cleaner financials
- Institutional-level reporting
- Buyer readiness
What makes a towing company more valuable?
- Predictable earnings
- Strong margins
- Documented systems
- Reduced owner dependence
How much time does this require from me?
Expect to invest a few hours per month in structured reviews and implementation. You will upload updated financials and other needed information as you progress through our core program and we will meet online every month to discuss your progress and cover new business topics. Most companies have utilized driver training, dispatch training and for some, sales training. In fact, you can probably name the person that taught you to operate your first truck. Until KAPS, there has been no one to train owners on how to run the business side of towing an we uniquely fill that gap.
What if I don’t have clean financial data?
That’s common. KAPS helps organize and normalize your data to build accurate insights. For companies who do not yet have financial reports, we can direct you in setting those up so that you have the tools to manage your business and make strategic decisions.
Is this a good fit for every towing company?
No. KAPS is best suited for owners committed to:
- Growth
- Accountability
- Data-driven decision making
- KAPS does not exist to “fix” your company, but as a strategic partner that will help you develop into a true captain of your ship.
How much does KAPS cost?
Pricing varies based on:
- Company size
- Complexity
- Scope of engagement
Most programs are structured as monthly advisory engagements for the greatest results. The more we work together, the more you benefit.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Yes. KAPS is not a one-time service—it’s a system.
Meaningful results require a multi-month commitment.
- “Who This Is NOT For”
This is not for:
- Owners looking for quick fixes
- Companies unwilling to change operations
- Businesses that don’t track basic performance data and that don’t want to start.
- “What Happens If You Do Nothing?”
Without a system like KAPS:
- Margins erode without visibility
- Pricing remains guesswork
- Growth creates chaos instead of profit
- Exit value is significantly reduced
- “Why KAPS Exists”
KAPS was built because most towing companies:
- Don’t know their true cost structure
- Operate without financial clarity
- Hit growth ceilings they can’t break through
- Operate with an eye on their bank account without cash flow planning
