Meet Bob Heid, founder of We Are Kymera, who set out to turn his marketing agency around after losing key business to acquisitions. He rebuilt financial visibility, developed his leadership team, and positioned the company for a favorable exit.
I thought I had a pretty good handle on where we were, but there were holes in the boat that were going to sink us. Volare helped us find them, plug them, and build a business that’s going to be worth a lot more than I thought it would be.
Bob Heid built We Are Kymera into a full-service marketing agency spanning digital and traditional channels. After losing significant business to client acquisitions, Bob engaged Volare to lead a turnaround that restored visibility into the company’s real financial health, redesigned its service offerings, restructured the organization so the right people owned the right work, and developed his leadership team so the business could run, and eventually sell, without him at the center of every decision.
Volare partnered with Bob to:
Bob believed he had a solid grasp of his finances and operations. In reality, the company’s true health was obscured. Profit was leaking in ways the existing reporting didn’t reveal, and the founder had drifted into day-to-day work rather than the strategic priorities only he could own.
Volare engineered a turnaround built on financial clarity, a sharper offer, and a leadership team equipped to run the business, so the founder could step back and the company could become genuinely sellable.
The turnaround moved the business from monthly losses and obscured finances to a clearer, more profitable, exit-ready footing, with a leadership team that increasingly runs the company on its own.
