About Sophiall and its Founder - George Sotiropoulos
Who is George? I know nothing about him

George Sotiropoulos founded Sophiall in 2021 after a career spanning finance, investor relations, business development, and consulting. During that time George also started two businesses from scratch for their owners and made them 7 figure businesses by the time he left.

George grew up in the USA and attended University at UCLA and earned his MBA from the University of Chicago.  IN 2005, George moved to London and since 2008 has been based in Dubai.

George’s focus on Sophiall is to work with you as a business owner to make your business a true asset by making it “sellable” even if you have no intention to sell anytime soon.

In plain English, a sellable business gives you the freedom and peace of mind from owning a business that can thrive without you as it will have the systems, processes and teams in place to make the business click and give you the opportunity to grow it and spend your time on what is important to you.

There is no substitute for owning a sellable company, and that is why George has made all his efforts to help business owners enjoy an experience that only the top 5% have enjoyed.

What is Sophiall?

Sophiall helps business owners transform their companies into sellable businesses—even if they have no plans to sell. A sellable business is one that thrives without depending on you, giving you the freedom to focus on what matters most or to grow with less stress.

A sellable business is more valuable and offers options: step back, scale up, or sell on your terms. It’s about creating a business that works for you, not the other way around.

At Sophiall, we identify blind spots, uncover gaps, and build a roadmap to make your business run like a well-oiled machine—so you can enjoy the freedom and opportunities you’ve worked so hard to achieve.

Why should I listen to George?

Because George can help you break free from the limitations you’ve placed on yourself.

Drawing on his diverse experience across industries, he tailors insights and strategies to fit your unique business challenges. George doesn’t tell you how to run your business—he works with you to enhance and transform it using the tools and resources you already have.

Through best practices, simple yet effective exercises, 1:1 collaboration, and group sessions with fellow business owners, George helps you gain clarity on where you are and where you want to go. The solutions are yours, so you’ll know exactly how to implement them—and more importantly, you’ll do it.

Because results matter. Not ideas or concepts.

Just ask David and Linda, who embraced the Socratic Success System and, in 18 months, cut their workload by 60% while 10x’ing their business into a 7-figure success.

Why is it called the Socratic Success System?

It’s called the Socratic Success System because it’s built on the principles of the Socratic Method—a discipline focused on asking the right questions to spark deeper thinking and uncover meaningful insights.

Rather than handing you cookie-cutter solutions, the system helps you discover the best strategies for your unique situation through thoughtful dialogue and challenging assumptions.

But it doesn’t stop there. The Socratic Success System integrates best practices from essential business disciplines—like strategy, customer experience, and direct response marketing—so you can build a business that is both sellable for a life-changing exit and designed to work for you starting today. And often, you’ll do this using the resources you already have.

It’s not about chasing shiny, expensive systems. It’s about following a proven, systematic process for achieving systematic success.

Sophiall is the global leader and exclusive provider of the Socratic Success System—delivering everything you need in one place.

Will George try to overhaul my business?

No, George won’t overhaul your business. This isn’t about tearing down what you’ve built—it’s about evolving it to match your long-term goals.

The playbook that got your business to where it is today has done its job. Now it’s time for the next phase: transforming your business into an independent, high-value asset.

With the right teams, processes, and systems in place, your business will thrive without your constant involvement. It’ll also become highly attractive to investors—setting you up for both peak profitability today and the potential for the biggest cheque of your life tomorrow.

Instead of imposing one-size-fits-all solutions, George works with you to build a foundation for long-term success, tailored to your goals and vision.

What makes George and Sophiall Different?

George’s approach is different because it’s tailored to you, not a cookie-cutter solution for his convenience. Every strategy is personalized to fit your specific business, ensuring it’s practical, actionable, and something you’ll actually implement.

Most consultants recommend generic solutions that ignore the unique challenges of the owner—leaving you with plans that are unrealistic or impossible to execute. George does the opposite: he designs strategies that align with your goals and reality.

The Socratic Success System focuses on transforming your business into a true asset—not just a job that pays the bills. When your business becomes an asset, you can scale profits and growth far beyond the limits of your time, energy, or circumstances.

What sets this system apart is its integration of best practices from multiple disciplines, including:

  • Business strategy
  • Exit planning
  • Delegation
  • Differentiation
  • Direct response marketing
  • Business culture
  • Pricing
  • Customer experience

Unlike others who force a one-size-fits-all template on you, the Socratic Success System is built on the foundations of what wildly successful entrepreneurs have used to grow their businesses.

To replicate what Sophiall offers in one place, you’d have to spend 100x more money and waste years piecing it all together. With George, you get it all in one proven system, designed to deliver real results.

Working with the Socratic Success System
How Does The Socratic Success System Work?

The Socratic Success System is powerful yet simple. It doesn’t require overtime or complicated tools—just a clear focus on where to invest your time and money to build the business and life you want.

At its core, the system revolves around helping you build a sellable business. Even if you never plan to sell, a sellable business is the key to freedom, profitability, and achieving the life you’ve always envisioned.

The system runs in three concurrent phases:

  1. Discover: Assess your business, goals, and aspirations to understand where you stand.
  2. Insights: Identify opportunities for growth and threats that could hold you back or diminish your business.
  3. Solutions: Design tailored actions that fit your unique situation and transform your business and life.

Our focus is on three key areas:

  1. Improving profits and cash flow
  2. Driving up the value and equity of your business
  3. Scaling your business to meet your vision—whether it’s staying small or becoming a conglomerate

This approach applies across all interactions—1:1 advisory, workshops, group collaborations, membership courses, and even daily emails and posts.

By focusing on building a sellable business, the Socratic Success System ensures you create a thriving company that works for you—not the other way around—so you can achieve the life you want, on your terms.

Will I need to put in a whole ton of effort to make this work

The Socratic Success System isn’t a magic wand like something out of my daughters’ Disney storybooks. You’ll need to implement the solutions you design, and yes, that sometimes requires effort.

That said, most of our clients report spending less than 5 hours a month on implementation.

In fact, the experience is often the opposite of what you’d expect. Clients quickly eliminate the busy work and escape the daily grind. They start seeing hours open up in their schedules, and the freedom is exhilarating—often within just 30 days.

Will I need to change everything I'm doing?

Not everything—but definitely the things that keep you stuck in the day-to-day grind. You’ve already built a strong foundation. Now it’s about adding the right teams, processes, and systems to let your business thrive without your constant involvement.

By making these strategic changes, you’ll free yourself from being essential to every task. Your business will not only become self-sustaining and attractive to investors but will also start delivering higher profits, more freedom, and peace of mind—starting today.

This way, your business works for you—not the other way around.

I've tried so many others - How do I know this will be different?

The Sophiall Socratic Success System is different because it starts with clarity. You’ll gain a clear understanding of where to invest your time and money to build a business that gives you the life you want.

It’s also 100% tailored to you—your situation, your goals, and your resources. Unlike expensive, one-size-fits-all packages that often miss the mark, this system is built specifically for you.

And here’s the best part: you’ll know quickly if this is the right solution for you. That’s why we offer a 30-day refund guarantee—so you can kick the tires and see if it’s the perfect fit, risk-free.

Does Socratic Success Work?

Yes, the Socratic Success System works because it’s built on the universal principles that drive successful businesses worldwide. At the same time, it’s flexible enough to adapt 100% to your unique business and goals.

It’s all about gaining clarity—knowing exactly where to focus your time and resources to build the business that gives you the life you want.

Here are just a few examples of the incredible results achieved through the Socratic Success System:

  • $1 Million Increase in Offer Value: One client increased the offer for her business by over $1 million in just six months.
  • $2 Million Equity Deal: Another client brought in his managers as non-controlling equity partners. They paid him $2 million upfront, retained his ownership control, and committed to paying $2 million annually in special dividends.
  • International Expansion Success: Two clients from completely different industries successfully expanded their businesses internationally. By leveraging the principles of the Socratic Success System, they both increased sales by 7 figures while maintaining the freedom they sought.
  • $500,000 Negotiation Boost: Even a prospect who simply took the Sophiall assessment gained enough insights to negotiate $500,000 more in an offer for her business.

The results speak for themselves. Whether your goal is to grow, scale, or prepare for a life-changing exit, the Socratic Success System is designed to deliver real, measurable outcomes—just like it has for so many others.

Can I implement Socratic Success?

Yes, you can implement the Socratic Success System because it’s designed specifically for your unique situation.

For example, I’ve worked with two very different clients—one with 10 employees and another with over 100. Both successfully applied tailored solutions from the Socratic Success System, designed to fit their circumstances, industries, and goals.

Unlike other advisors who push expensive, one-size-fits-all systems, Socratic Success is flexible enough to work for businesses of any size or industry. It’s focused on practical, actionable strategies that make sense for you.

You’ll be surprised how easy it is to implement the insights. That’s why we confidently offer an initial 30-day money-back guarantee.*

Who It’s For and Why It Works
Who should subscribe for the Socratic Success System?

The Socratic Success System is for business owners who are serious about investing in themselves and their businesses.

How do you know if it’s for you?

  • You’ve invested in other programs or advisors before. Maybe the results weren’t what you hoped, but you believe the right system and community can be a game changer.
  • You’re not here to haggle for discounts. If you’re hunting for a deal instead of a solution, this isn’t for you.
  • You know that continuing the same path and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.
  • You’re constantly learning and striving to become a better business owner.
  • You understand the value of relationships, focusing on making customers, not just sales.

The Socratic Success System is also ideal if:

  • You’re a business owner looking to grow strategically, with clarity on where to invest your time and money for maximum results.
  • You have an abundance mentality—you see opportunities in collaboration, even with competitors, and know the value of breaking bread with like-minded peers.
  • You’re looking to contribute to a community, not sell to it.
  • You plan to sell your business one day—or at least make it sellable to open up new opportunities.

If that sounds like you, the Socratic Success System is ready to help you transform your business—and your life.

Who SHOULD NOT Subscribe to the Socratic Success System?

The Socratic Success System is not for everyone. Here’s who shouldn’t apply:

  • Bargain Hunters and Discount Zombies: If your goal is to haggle or force a discount, this isn’t the place for you. In fact, we raise prices on those who push too hard for a deal.
  • Price Shoppers: If you’re only focused on finding the cheapest option, we’re not the right fit.
  • Shiny Object Collectors: If you jump from program to program without taking action, this won’t work for you. The Socratic Success System requires belief in implementation.
  • Rude People: We’re here to partner with you, not serve you. If you can’t treat us with respect, this isn’t the community for you.

Sophiall is for serious business owners who are ready to invest in transformation—not just another program to add to the pile.

Do I need to start NOW?

You don’t just need this now—you needed it yesterday.

Why?

Because every day you run your business, you’re moving closer to your exit. The question is: will it be on your terms—or someone else’s?

Many exits are unplanned, triggered by illness, burnout, economic shifts, or family emergencies. When this happens, owners—or their families—often scramble to sell at a discount, or worse, can’t sell at all.

Even planned exits can fall short. The reality is that 7 out of 10 business owners who try to sell will fail to find a buyer willing to meet their terms. They’re left with pennies on the dollar—or nothing—losing the chance to capture the true value of their hard work and decades of sacrifice.

Right now, you’re either building value or burning it.

Which will it be?

Register today to take control of your future. Start creating equity and ensure your business delivers the full value of everything you’ve built—on your terms.

What if I sign up and it's the wrong decision?

We take the stress out of your decision. That’s why every package comes with a 30-day, no-questions-asked full refund guarantee.

If you’re not wowed by the Socratic Success System, you can simply ask for your money back.*

There’s no risk—just the opportunity to see how this system can transform your business.

What type of Companies Invest in the Socratic Success System?

The Socratic Success System is for companies that want to achieve significant results and take control of their future. Here are the types of businesses that invest in this system:

Companies Planning to Sell in the Next 1–5 Years:
Many clients are preparing to sell to retire, raise capital, or start a new chapter. The reality is, 7 out of 10 business owners fail to sell their companies—even profitable ones. And those who do sell often leave six, seven, or even eight figures on the table because their business wasn’t positioned to sell when the opportunity arose.

The Socratic Success System ensures your business is sellable, maximising its value and giving you the life-changing equity you deserve.

Business Owners Buried in the Grind, Seeking Freedom and Growth:
Some business owners want to grow but feel trapped in the daily grind, with no time or energy to focus on scaling. We help free you from the day-to-day operations so you can focus on what truly matters: building an asset that gives you the life you want.

Here’s how we summarise the type of business owners who invest in this system:

“I work with overworked and frustrated business owners who’ve been let down by empty promises and zero results. That’s when they find me. Together, we discover actionable insights to generate more money, make their business more valuable, and position them to capture life-changing opportunities.”

The Socratic Success System is for those ready to transform their business into a profitable, sellable asset and start living life on their terms.
