You haven't found it yet. But you will.
When I say vertical, I mean one of these:
If you read that list and felt the ground shift under one of them — that's yours. If you read it and felt nothing, this isn't for you, and that's not a slight. The person who knows every plumber in the state is doing something valuable. It is just not this.
The Osiris verticals are specialty automotive culture. Not automotive as a category. Not vehicle ownership broadly. The culture — the one that has a calendar of events, a circuit of shops, a network of clubs, a language, and a community that can tell within five minutes whether you belong to it or not.
Now. Within that world.
You're in sales, or business development, or some variation of it. You're good at it — genuinely good. You hit your numbers. You probably make decent money. And none of that is the problem.
The problem is that the industry you serve every day is not the one you belong to. The one you belong to is the one where you still know every shop worth knowing. The one you grew up in, still live in, have never actually left — even when you technically left it for a paycheck.
You've watched shops in your community struggle with things you already know how to fix. You've watched them lose customers to shops that are worse at the craft but better at being found. You've had the thought — more times than you can count — someone should build this for us. And then you went back to work somewhere that has nothing to do with any of it.
You're not looking for a job. You're looking for a home for what you already know how to do.
This is the Osiris Vertical Partner program. It is not a job posting. It is not on Indeed or LinkedIn. It is a standing offer to one specific type of person per vertical — and when that person exists, they find it.
Here is what the structure is, stated plainly:
Not in your vertical. In the whole company. The national summit, the GPO, the park partnerships, the State of the Industry publication, every other vertical partner's work — you have a stake in all of it. Vests over 12 months. If you're planning to be here in five years anyway, that won't bother you.
You take half of what your vertical produces after direct costs. Your travel, materials, and any vertical-specific staff come out of the profit base before the split. You have full autonomy over those decisions — every dollar you spend inefficiently comes directly out of your income. The accountability is automatic.
There is no salary. That is not an oversight. No salary means no floor — and no ceiling.
| Vertical Monthly Revenue | Delivery Costs | Net Profit | Your 50% |
|---|---|---|---|
| $15,000 | $3,000 | $12,000 | $6,000 / mo — $72k / yr |
| $40,000 | $7,000 | $33,000 | $16,500 / mo — $198k / yr |
| $80,000 | $12,000 | $68,000 | $34,000 / mo — $408k / yr |
These numbers grow with every client closed and every client retained. There is no cap on how many markets your vertical enters. There is no cap on how many anchor clients are in each market.
Asks what the base pay is before asking anything else about the business.
Runs the math at 10 clients, then 20, then 40 — and gets more interested as the numbers get bigger.
Before Osiris, there was Coleman Electric. Built from nothing in Elizabethton, Tennessee. Grew to two crews. Best profit margin: 38%.
The technicians at Coleman Electric didn't work for the company. They worked for themselves inside a structure that aligned their outcomes with the company's. They made their own calls — what to buy, how to price, who to hire. Their bonus at end of year wasn't based on revenue. It was based on truck profit. That single design decision changed who stayed and who left. The people who wanted a managed salary with a floor left. The people who ran the math forward and saw what autonomy plus accountability could produce — they stayed. They built their own incomes. They built the company in the process.
The Vertical Partner model is that architecture at a different scale. With two differences: the equity stake is real, and the "truck" is an entire industry vertical.
This is not a disguised employee arrangement with equity as decoration. The vertical partner is not working inside Osiris. They are building their own corner of it — with the infrastructure that took years to build already underneath them.
I grew up around all of it. Not as a spectator. We went to Thunder Valley at Bristol multiple times. Bristol races. Car shows. Friends with diesels — we'd do truck pulls against each other on someone's property. The culture of the whole specialty automotive world was just the water I swam in growing up. I chose these verticals because I love them. All of them. That is not marketing language.
But there is a difference between loving a world and being the person in it.
In off-road, I am that person. It is my deepest home in the industry. I grew up there. I live there now. The community already knows me. In diesel performance, in American muscle, in classic restoration, in sport bikes — I love all of it. I am actively becoming more immersed in all of it. Life just hasn't allowed the full depth yet in every vertical, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise.
The right partner for the sport bike vertical walked into his first moto event at seventeen and never really left. Everybody at the rally already knows his name. That credibility walks into the room before he does. He doesn't have to establish himself — he has to show up.
That is the thing you cannot manufacture, cannot purchase, and cannot accelerate. You either grew up in a specific community or you didn't. You either have two decades of real relationships in it or you are still building them. For a model that runs entirely on community-embedded trust — where the sales motion is a genuine enthusiast conversation, not a pitch — that authenticity is the whole product.
A vertical partner doesn't fill a time slot. They bring the credibility that the vertical requires from day one. I can build every other part of this. I cannot give someone a decade of relationships they didn't spend.
You are Osiris in your community. That is the whole job.
The product architecture, pricing, and network standards are Osiris decisions. What you own is the relationship layer and what it produces. If the vertical grows, you grow with it. If it stalls, you feel it directly. There is no managed outcome here.
Osiris is building toward a National Summit — one gathering, annually, hosted permanently in the East Tennessee region. Every vertical. Consumers and shops in the same place. The largest specialty automotive event in the country. Fully sponsor-funded.
Around that table — and at the City Summits and Metro Weeks in the years leading up to it — every Vertical Partner brings their own genuine community with them. Not customers they manage. People they know.
The vertical partner model is not a delegation of my role. It is the only way to keep the dinner table authentic as it gets bigger. You can't hire someone to have real relationships in a community they didn't grow up in. You find the person who already has them.
That is who this page is for. And if that person is reading this right now, the page did exactly what it was built to do.
There is no open/closed timing on this. If you recognize yourself in what you just read — your vertical, your community, your decade of watching something that should exist not exist yet — reach out. The timing of the conversation does not depend on whether your vertical slot is currently open.
When the right person finds this page, we talk. That is the entire process.
