Episode Synopsis

What does it really take to build a business from the ground up? In this episode, we sit down with Mike Seidi of REI Capital Guys, a serial entrepreneur who’s built—and sold—multiple companies, starting with nothing but grit, hustle, and a credit card. From working out of a basement to doing multimillion-dollar deals, Mike walks us through what it means to figure things out as you go, ask the right people for help, and trust your ability to learn what you don’t know.We talk about starting with zero industry experience, hiring experts before knowing what a Phillips screwdriver is, and learning to thrive outside the box. Mike doesn’t sugarcoat anything—he shares real lessons from growing a business in the trades and financial industries, including how he protects investor money and why asking for help is a power move. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to scale with intention, this episode is packed with practical wisdom from someone who’s been through it all.Note: For the best audio experience, we recommend listening to this episode with earphones.
