A messy middle entrepreneur is someone who’s past the startup stage but not quite hitting consistent six-figure revenue—yet. You’ve validated your idea, served some amazing clients, and even gained some momentum… but now you’re in the in-between zone.
The to-do list is long, the ideas are bigger than your bandwidth, and motivation can feel like it comes in waves. Sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone—and you might be the perfect fit for an adventure like ESC & Explore.
Why the Messy Middle Is So Tricky
This stage of business is full of potential, but also pressure. You’re no longer a newbie, so people expect a level of polish—but behind the scenes, you’re still figuring out systems, refining offers, and trying to scale without burning out.
What makes the messy middle especially tricky is that you’re doing a lot—some would say, wearing all the hats! It can be easy to feel like you’re not getting anywhere.
