Episode Synopsis


Today I'm joined by Isaac French for a coaching session on his next moves after turning a $2.3 million property investment into a $7 million exit, while building multiple six-figure digital revenue streams. We map out his options - from launching a content agency and building more properties to scaling his YouTube presence - and explore how to choose between opportunities when you're optimizing for both impact and quality of life. You'll learn our framework for evaluating opportunities, why enterprise value isn't just about tangible assets anymore, and how to grow strategically without sacrificing what matters most.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction01:29 How I Sold an Airbnb Business for Millions03:26 Email Marketing Funnel That Makes $200K/Year07:36 Should I Start an Agency, SaaS, Real Estate Business, or Creator Business?11:29 Starting an Agency vs Building SaaS14:55 Evaluating Future Paths19:48 Making Money vs Quality of Life as an Entrepreneur30:57 Why Isaac Keeps His Business Team Small31:24 The Truth About Starting Agencies and SaaS Businesses37:17 Exploring New Property Ideas40:16 The Value of a Small Property45:45 Growing on YouTube as a Business Owner47:11 Growing an Email Newsletter50:26 Balancing Cash Flow and Equity51:52 The Value of Audience and Personal Brand01:02:54 Closing ThoughtsIf you enjoyed this episode, please like and subscribe, share it with your friends, and leave us a review.
