About Us

Most business owners work incredibly hard — and still feel like the money disappears before they can explain where it went. Decisions get made on gut feelings because the real numbers aren't visible. Cash feels tight even when sales look good. And the question that keeps showing up is: "Why does this still feel so hard?"

At Triumph Business Solutions, we built our advisory and mentoring practice around one belief: every business owner deserves financial clarity — not someday, but right now.

I'm Dave Worden — Profit First Certified Professional, MBA, and 10+ years in business finance. We're not a bookkeeping firm. We're the advisor and mentor who walks alongside you, helps you implement proven cash flow systems through the Profit First methodology, and gives you the confidence to make real decisions with real numbers.

Most of our clients come to us saying the same thing: "I'm making money but I don't know where it goes." We fix that — so profit becomes intentional, cash has a destination, and you stop wondering and start winning.

We also built two platforms to help more owners — and the advisors who serve them — access tools that used to only exist inside expensive engagements:

Triumph Intelligence Platform — Advisor-level financial intelligence built for business owners. Financial health assessments, cash flow coaching, ICP building, and financial storytelling that makes your numbers make sense. You get the clarity of a trusted advisor — on your own terms, at your own pace.

Triumph ManeFrame — Cash flow projection and forecasting out 12–24 months. See exactly where your cash is headed, model hiring decisions, plan growth moves, and stop making major decisions blind. Built for business owners — and for advisors who want to bring this level of insight to every client they serve.

If you're tired of working hard and still feeling behind financially, this is where that changes. Let's connect.

How We Got Started

After nearly 20 years in corporate finance and executive leadership, I realized something was missing. I was managing millions in revenue but rarely touching what mattered most — the people behind the numbers.

What I really cared about wasn’t spreadsheets or strategy decks. It was helping business owners understand their money, breathe easier, and make decisions that actually created freedom.

That’s why I started Triumph Business Solutions. I saw too many small businesses working themselves to the bone — growing in sales but stuck in stress — simply because no one had ever shown them a clear, practical way to manage their cash.

Through the Profit First system and our Business Revenue Model framework, we help entrepreneurs create structure, clarity, and confidence. We turn confusion into control and profit into peace of mind.

This isn’t just a business for me. It’s personal.
I know life can change in a moment — and I want my time here to matter. That’s why I’ve set out to help 1,000

Business owners almost always start with something exciting, which means complicated, which means a frustrating first experience. The boring follow-up email is the better rep. Low stakes, fast feedback, actual learning. And context really does change everything. Owners who approach AI like a new hire they need to onboard get dramatically different results than those who expect it to read their mind. Where do you see the biggest gap between owners who build that habit and those who give up after one bad result?

And it matches what I see from the financial side, the businesses that grow through referrals consistently have one thing in common: they're not scrambling. When the back office is clear, owners can actually be present in their relationships instead of constantly reacting to whatever just hit their bank account. Clarity in the numbers creates capacity for exactly the kind of intentional connection this article is describing. What's the biggest shift you've seen business owners make when they finally start treating referrals as a system rather than a happy accident?

The best referral relationships I've built came from staying in touch when I had something useful to share, not when I needed something. That shift in intent changes the whole dynamic, people feel it instantly.

(more) This is one of the most practical ways to think about networking I have seen. Working backward from a revenue number to a relationship count changes the whole conversation. Most owners I work with treat networking as a soft activity, but when you tie it to how many clients you actually need this month, it becomes a system. The second degree network point is underrated, that is where the best referrals quietly live.

I think I would mandate that there is a mandatory vacation policy for all businesses and that workers are encouraged to use the time off and not try to bank the hours.  also, we would figure out a simpler and more effective way of taxation and limit government spending.  (more) I think I would mandate that there is a mandatory vacation policy for all businesses and that workers are encouraged to use the time off and not try to bank the hours.  also, we would figure out a simpler and more effective way of taxation and limit government spending.
