@danielradabaugh
Co-founder and CEO of One Shot Growth, scaling energy and industrial operators with operating systems that protect both business and people.
What I'm looking for
I run One Shot Growth, a veteran-owned growth platform for founder-CEOs and owner-operators of asset-intensive businesses in energy, industrial, construction, and infrastructure. I focus on the gap between the operating model that got you to $10M and what carries you to $30M.
In the work, I bring the working operator’s view of the P&L, pricing and margin discipline that survives the field, and systems and reporting a CEO can actually decide from. We also tackle the personal alignment side at the same time as professional execution, because the foundation matters more than the strategy.
I scaled an oilfield services business from $8M to $27M in 18 months, opened three new states, and signed seven Master Service Agreements. I also ran a 180-person field organization with zero recordable safety incidents, tying the pattern to pricing discipline, clean systems, the right org structure, and a sales motion that targets the right accounts.
Beyond the company, I host the One Shot Growth Podcast and Global Energy Recon through Oil and Gas Global Network. I speak on mental health and communication in the field with roles including VP for the Damage Prevention Council of Texas (Permian Basin) and Director at Project2Fourteen, connecting veteran support with safer, healthier field operations.

Project2Fourteen serves veterans of the Greater Permian Basin through outdoor therapy programs that supply veterans with the equipment and knowledge needed to re-create their inaugural trip. The organization's secondary mission is connecting Permian Basin veterans with each other through networking events, employment assistance, and community service that builds a local support system.
One Shot Growth is a veteran-owned growth platform built on a simple conviction: you cannot separate the personal side from the professional side and expect either to hold.
We work alongside founders, operators, and teams across energy, skilled trades, and veteran-owned businesses, on both the personal alignment and professional execution sides simultaneously. Most consultants will not touch the
Host of the Global Energy Recon Podcast 🎙️
Jan 2024 - Present (2 years 7 months)
Global Energy Recon is OGGN's veteran-focused show, built to help service members transition from military service into the energy sector. We host real conversations with operators, founders, and industry leaders on what that transition takes, and what the energy industry gains when veterans come home to it. The show is a driver for the industry, not just a record of it.
