Glenn Stearns from the first season of Undercover Billionaire, returns to Erie, Pennsylvania, where he built his business, Underdog BBQ, in just 90 days.
Now he has a new mission: rescuing small businesses on the brink of going bust.
When the economy hit the skids earlier the year, Glenn was contacted by other Erie businessmen and women who were struggling to keep their own dream alive.
Each episode will follow Glenn as he works to turn around one of these small businesses.
After assessing their operation and identifying areas to change, he'll work with them to transform it in just 27 days.
Why 27 days? The average small business in America has just 27 days in cash reserves. Glenn believes that if a business can't turn it around in that amount of time, they'll never be able to.
Each episode will give all business owners key lessons on how to stay afloat and grow.
Glenn will identify the many pitfalls new businesses face and lay out a plan to reach their money-making goals.
From diners and boxing gyms to coffee shops and rust belt manufacturing, Glenn will share all that he's learned and might have a few surprise tricks up his sleeves as well.
In the series premiere, "Big Pivot, Big Profit": Glenn reveals what it takes to save a struggling business when he's called on to rescue Tipsy Bean, an Erie coffee shop with huge potential but suffering from a fatal flaw.
