Ruth Parker and Isa Murphy of Strategic Equity Partners: Warning business owners that going it alone is the fastest way to flatline.

Strategic Equity Partners offers an alternative: scale with partnerships, zero ad spend, and exponential growth—before competitors leave you behind.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, September 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In today’s economy, trying to scale a business alone isn’t just difficult—it’s deadly. According to Parker & Murphy, of Strategic Equity Partners, established companies that cling to outdated, go-it-alone strategies are on the fast track to flatlining.

Isa Murphy and Ruth Parker are affiliated with global entrepreneur JT Foxx, who has completed over 84 international deals. Strategic Equity Partners was created to serve service industry businesses valued at $1 million and above—from CPA firms to HVAC companies and beyond. They want to support companies that are ready to grow but face mounting pressure in today’s uncertain climate.

“Going it alone is the slowest and riskiest path forward,” said Isa Murphy, a branding strategist since 2018. “Mid-sized firms often stall because they try to scale with outdated models. We provide a proven system of partnerships, branding, and infrastructure that accelerates growth in ways they never thought possible.”
“We see deal-making as an art form,” added Ruth Parker, an established business owner since 2002. “Every owner’s dream is different. Our job is to create win-win opportunities that allow businesses not just to survive, but to scale quickly and exit with legacy.”

The risks are real. Nearly 70% of mid-sized firms struggle to scale due to outdated business models and underinvestment in growth (McKinsey, 2023). Even more alarming, 58% of business owners risk losing the full value of their company without a clear succession or exit plan (Exit Planning Institute). Parker & Murphy believe this is where strategic partnerships make the difference: by leveraging their network and ready-to-deploy resources, they give businesses the ability to scale exponentially, outperform competitors, and protect long-term value.
