OCTOBER 16-17, 2026    
ALT_CHICAGO | CHICAGO, IL

The proven two-day experience to increase profit, strengthen cash flow, and create more time freedom through practical strategies they can implement immediately.

Your Business Is Busy. Your Bank Account Isn't. Here's Why.

You put in the hours.

You answer calls after dinner. You solve problems all day. You wear every hat in your business.

Yet at the end of the month, you still ask yourself:

"How am I working this hard and still feel tight on cash?"

Revenue comes in but where does it go?

 

You know you're busy, but do you know:

  • Which clients are actually profitable?

  • Where your cash is leaking?

  • What is truly driving your growth?

More hustle isn't the answer.

Clarity is.

That's Why We Created the Xcelerator Business Summit.

For two powerful days, you'll step away from the daily grind and gain the strategies, systems, and connections to build a more profitable business.

You'll Leave With:

 

✔ A clear 90-day growth plan

✔ Strategies to increase profit and improve cash flow

✔ Proven sales, marketing, finance, operations, AI, and leadership tools

✔ Systems to save time and scale with confidence

✔ Meaningful connections with hundreds of ambitious business owners

Stop guessing. Start growing.

Join hundreds of business owners at the Xcelerator Business Summit and leave with the clarity and confidence to build the business you've always envisioned.

DR. MARTHA RAZO

MARTHA-ANNOUNCEMENT.png

HOST OF XCELERATOR BUSINESS SUMMIT

Dr. Martha Razo

Most business events are built by marketers selling a feeling. This one was built by a mathematician who had to make the math actually work with her own money on the line.

Dr. Martha Razo runs a multi-million-dollar pallet company. She's a business owner who has sat with the exact same questions eating at you right now: 

How do I keep profit after everyone else gets paid first? 

How do I stop dreading the day payroll hits? 

How do I stop working myself sick for clients who don't deserve the effort?

 

Her training in applied mathematics lets her see what most owners and most accountants miss entirely: the handful of numbers that actually drive profit, cash and client quality. Everything else is noise and she's spent her career learning to ignore the noise. Her path as a Latina business owner building a company from nothing in a blue-collar industry means she isn't theorizing about the grind from a green room. She's lived every hour of it.

 

After years of watching good, hardworking owners run themselves into the ground without ever seeing it show up in their bank account, she built the event she wished had existed for her. Not hype. Not theory. Not a stranger's framework that only worked in his business. Real operators, real numbers and moves you can make Monday morning.

Martha's goal with XBS is simple: help you see your numbers clearly, fix what's actually broken and leave with next steps that finally make this business pay you back for everything you've poured into it.

You didn't come here to feel inspired for a weekend.

You came for outcomes you can bank.

 

By the time you leave XBS, you will have:

        Profit clarity. A clear, honest picture of exactly which offers, clients and activities are making you                      money and which ones are quietly bleeding you dry while you're not looking.

       Confidence in your own numbers. You can still hate spreadsheets. That's fine. But you'll know exactly           which numbers matter, where to find them and how to use them to make the next decision

        and the one after that.

        A real cash plan. A 90-day view of money coming in and going out, so payroll, rent and slow months

        stop being a monthly panic attack.

       A one-page 90-day roadmap. Written in plain language: what stops, what starts and the 3-5 moves              you'll actually make in the next 90 days  (not someday, not "when things calm down.")

       Pricing and offer decisions made. No more "I'll think about it." You'll use the room to make real calls               on your prices, your packages and who you're willing to work with going forward.

        Relationships with owners who are actually serious. Conversations with people who show up,  

         invest in themselves and are open to referrals, partnerships and deals.

 

       ​A shortlist of vetted vendors, done for you. Instead of burning months hunting, filtering and getting

       burned online, you'll leave with names and faces you can trust for marketing, finance, legal and            

       systems.

 

You already know how the last 90 days went. If you use what you get in this room, the next 90 won't look anything like them. This is the entire point of showing up.
