About
When you’re looking to scale your business, it can be difficult to know where to start. As an entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience, Warren Sager knows exactly what it takes to grow businesses through results-oriented, proven methods of success. Throughout his career, Warren has started, scaled, and sold 6 different businesses and considers himself a “serial entrepreneur”. He built one of these businesses, Knife Depot, into one of the premier e-commerce websites in the outdoor space. Warren’s favorite company he helped build was Hybrid Racing, specialized in the design, build, and sale of high-performance race car parts for Honda and Acura owners. Currently, Warren is helping scale a company called Moxey that is building the largest barter network in the world using a community currency called the “Moxey Dollar.”
Warren’s mantra for himself and his clients, “work smarter, not harder,” has been an important notion to him from an early age. Warren grew up in a family farming business and learned firsthand how difficult running a business can be. He made a promise to not overwhelm and overwork himself as his entrepreneurial father did and set out to build his own business where he’d “work smarter, not harder.” This is Warren’s goal for every business leader he works with: to help them leverage their resources to make a huge impact through their companies without consuming all of their time and energy.
Warren holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Finance from Binghamton University in New York. Warren has been married to his wife Ana for 25 years and has two grown children. He enjoys poker, traveling, reading, and exercising in his free time. Warren’s experience as an entrepreneur combined with his passion for helping business leaders scale their organizations makes him a highly effective coach and resource for business leaders.
Professional Highlights
Warren has started, scaled, and exited 6 companies over his 25 year entrepreneurial journey. He is Scaling Up certified, Metronomics certified, and ADV Insights certified.
Personal Highlights
Warren’s greatest accomplishment is his family. His son Ian is a successful tech guru for a scale up in New Orleans. His daughter Sierra is helping the world through her non profit work in New Orleans. His wife Ana runs a property management firm and has supported Warren and his work for over 26 years.
“Warren is an excellent coach who helped me to improve my leadership skills. He is knowledgeable, experienced, and supportive. He helped me to identify my strengths and weaknesses as a leader, always reinforcing that my weaknesses could be used as strengths. He also provided unique and simple to use tools that I could implement into my day to day or share with my team. He also challenged me to think outside the box to come up with new ideas. Most importantly, Warren always gave me honest, practical advice on how to improve my performance and reshape my thought process. Working with Warren has been a valuable experience. I have learned a lot about myself and about leadership. I am confident that the skills and knowledge I have gained will help me to be a more effective leader in the future and continue to grow.
I would highly recommend Warren to anyone who is looking for leadership business coaching. He is a talented coach who can help you to achieve your personal and leadership goals.”

“Warren says ‘Matt, your fears don’t align with your reality’. I wrestled with this at first, but Warren's observation altered my life tangibly and intangibly. His words helped me find the right help, pay off our house (bought previously from Warren's spousal coaching) and begin making decisions toward a bigger and less fearful future. Warren has done this before, but his impact is only growing.”

“Warren is a fantastic coach and mentor who has helped shape and guide my business and personal life over the last 9+ years. His guidance and wisdom enabled me to turn my bankrupt company around in just over two years. You will be hard-pressed to find a more capable and balanced business coach with real-world experience to help you on your journey.”
