I’m Ty McBride — founder, franchise builder, and creator of the Built Together Business Model.
Over the last 15 years, I’ve built and sold multiple businesses in the building-maintenance and repair space — residential, commercial, and even historic preservation. My focus has always been on durable service businesses that can scale with technology and AI, but can’t be replaced by them. These are the kinds of businesses that give owners the strongest chance of success, stability, and a real exit.
