Mark Kreuz
About

Background

I spent a decade in National IT at one of the world's most operationally disciplined retailers, managing 1,200+ technology installations and leading enterprise system deployments across seven U.S. divisions. I founded Dont Shut Down, where as a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®) I bring that operational discipline to small business owners preparing for their next chapter. I am also an active buyer pursuing acquisitions of service businesses in the Midwest, focused on septic, waste, excavation, and infrastructure services with durable demand and strong fundamentals.
