Most people chase investors. Tom Shipley built billion-dollar businesses by buying them instead.

In this episode of Founder to Founder, I sit down with Tom — serial entrepreneur, Special Forces vet, and founder of multiple $2B+ brands — to break down how acquisitions, not VC, can create generational wealth. From $100 startups to $100M roll-ups, this is the strategy most founders overlook.

💥 You’ll learn:

• How Tom scaled from $100 to $20M — without raising capital

• Why 90% of exits never happen (and how to fix that)

• How to use creative financing to buy companies

• The M&A strategy that multiplies growth 12x

• Why home services and AI are recession-proof in 2025

• What Tom would build with $100K today

This episode is pure strategy, grit, and real-world wins — from military mindset to billion-dollar execution.
