Build Something Worth Owning and Worth Selling
For businesses that want to be stronger today, and ready for tomorrow. We work at three inflection points: growth strain, operational distress, or exit preparation.
The View from the Inside
Pearl Hill Road Advisors is an advisory practice working with owner-operated and family businesses in the $5 million to $50 million revenue range. Engagements typically come at three inflection points: growth strain, operational distress, or exit preparation. The practice is built around years of experience as the CEO, COO, and CFO in private companies.
Whatever the situation, the goal is the same: more clarity, more control, and more options.
Every engagement begins with a paid Business Readiness Diagnostic that produces a written assessment of where the business stands and where the priorities are. The Diagnostic determines whether continuing together makes sense and, if so, what shape the ongoing engagement should take. Owners engage directly with a principal who has held those operating seats, not a junior consultant. Analytical and delivery support sits behind that relationship as needed. Ongoing engagements run on a monthly retainer, with a defined operating rhythm and structured deliverables each period.
Service Areas
Three areas of focus. The right starting point depends on where the business is and what it needs first.
Operational Health
For businesses that have outgrown their infrastructure and want a clearer view of what's actually happening inside it.
Business Performance
For businesses whose growth isn't translating into more money in the business, and that want to know why.
Transition Readiness
For businesses whose horizon is narrowing, by choice or by circumstance, and that want the business to be ready when the time comes.
Our Approach
We Take an Operator's Perspective
Built from operating experience, not just advisory experience. We have spent years in CEO, CFO, and COO positions in private companies.
A Defined Methodology
Every engagement runs through the PHR Readiness System. The structure stays consistent; the substance is shaped to your business.
An Honest Assessment
We provide a frank picture of where the business stands, including the parts that are painful to hear. From there, we help you build on what's working and push it further.
What Better Looks Like
Clarity
A clear picture of what the business is actually doing, what is driving the numbers, and where the gaps are. The kind of view that lets you make decisions with real information behind them.
Control
Systems and rhythms that let you steer the business rather than react to it. A monthly close that happens timely, reports that provide valuable insights, and cash flow you can plan against.
Options
Real choices about what comes next. Sell, grow, transfer, hold. Those decisions stay yours because the business is ready to support any of them.
Who we are
Business Guidance Built on Real Operating Experience
Pearl Hill Road Advisors works with owner-operated and family businesses in the $5M to $50M range, typically at one of three inflection points: growth strain, operational distress, or exit preparation. We’re based in Tulsa and most active across Oklahoma, Arkansas, Colorado, Missouri, and Texas, but we work with owners nationally. Most engagements run on a hybrid model: a structured remote rhythm with onsite work at the moments that matter most.
The practice is led by Scott Bonnallie. He spent much of his career running companies as a CEO, a COO, and a CFO, so he understands the decisions owners face from the seat they’re sitting in. He started Pearl Hill Road Advisors to be the kind of experienced sounding board he would have valued in those roles himself.
