About Kedma Ough

"What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger." This isn’t just a saying—it’s the foundation of my journey as a small business champion and funding strategist. Beyond the stages and spotlights, I embody resilience and reinvention every single day...

…From escaping a violent past to surviving in hiding for five years, my life has been a masterclass in overcoming adversity. I’ve hit rock bottom—losing everything, not once, but twice. Yet, as a tough New Yorker, I refused to stay down. Today, I stand as a self-made multimillionaire, proving that perseverance and strategy create unstoppable success.

The Turning Point: From Bankruptcy to Financial Powerhouse

With a 450 credit score and a single $200 credit card, I sparked the creation of my groundbreaking project, “Target Funding”—more than a book, it’s a strategic roadmap for businesses once considered unbankable. Inspired by my own comeback, it provides a proven system for securing funding and scaling businesses.

For 25+ years, I’ve been the trusted coach, strategist, and advocate for small businesses, startups, and inventors. I’ve navigated the funding landscape, avoided pitfalls, and mastered the fastest routes to financial success.

My Signature Strategy: RAMP – Review, Adjust, Market, Profit

As a TEDx Speaker, Funding Expert, and Investor, I’m drawn to purpose-driven leaders. My mission? Elevate and empower. My proudest achievement isn’t just financial freedom but rebuilding my credit to 825, a testament to resilience.

  • For inventors ready to bring ideas to life, join my Inventors Mastermind.

  • For ambitious women seeking funding and mentorship, the Quantum Leap Mastermind is here.

Success Isn’t Luck—It’s Strategy

Winning in business requires resilience, relationships, and the right roadmap. With 100+ success stories, my clients prove that transformation is possible with the right guidance.

Are you ready to scale your business, secure funding, or license your invention? Let’s make your million-dollar dream a reality.

Send me a message with “I’m ready to RAMP things up.” Let’s go!

For corporations seeking a high-energy keynote speaker, I bring proven strategies, actionable insights, and transformative impact.
