The Drakon Club
Private. Invite-Only. Built on Trust.
A curated network of founders and operators — built on Bill's real operating experience across Wagepoint, Ledgers, and Huumans. This is not a directory. It's a living network designed to support founders who are serious about scaling the right way.
Invitation-Only Access
After four consulting sessions with Bill, you may be considered for an invitation. No open enrollment. No pay-to-play.
Vetted Partners
Every partner has been vetted through Bill's direct experience at Wagepoint, Ledgers, and Huumans. Trusted introductions only.
Ongoing Access
Request partner introductions as your business evolves — CPAs, attorneys, recruiters, system architects, and growth advisors.
Who It's For
Founders actively engaged in building sustainable, scalable businesses. Operators who value trust and execution over vendor relationships. CEOs navigating growth complexity who need vetted partners.
Let's Build Something Great
If you're a founder with a bold idea, a business owner who needs the right partners, or an investor looking to back Alberta's next wave — Bill wants to hear from you directly.
No gatekeepers. No forms. Just a real conversation with someone who's built, scaled, and exited before.
