From Founder to Operational Expert
I've been where you are - drowning in operations while trying to scale a business. Now I help other founders build the systems that turn chaos into sustainable growth.
Meet Dovid Preil
I'm an operational leader and fractional COO with over 15 years of hands-on experience scaling businesses across real estate, fintech, and technology. But more importantly, I'm a founder who's lived through the exact challenges you're facing.
In 2016, I started YDLP Investment Group, scaling it from zero to over $3.5 million in raised capital from 150+ smaller investors. The challenge? Managing TWO complex pipelines simultaneously - deals and clients - with a distributed team across the US and Israel.
I was spending 70%+ of my time on operational tasks, just like many founders do. That's when I developed what became the GRIT Framework - a systematic approach to building operational excellence that actually scales.

Build scalable, repeatable processes before scaling teams
People-Centric Operations
