Scaling a business in a commoditized industry is a challenge for many middle-market firms lacking the scale of larger corporations.

How can companies transform their business model and stay competitive while navigating disruption and preparing for a sale?
Turnaround CEO Kevin Fleming has revitalized a struggling healthcare company from growth to exit. He emphasizes challenging traditional business models, like fixed processing fees, and leveraging innovation to create a meaningful financial impact. Kevin also recommends reimagining customer engagement through unified billing and tailored communications.
