Ever wonder how someone bought an $8M/year company with only $5,000? Gary Shelton did just that, and in this interview, he reveals his exact model. Gary is "The Coaching King," having acquired, scaled, and sold 12 different businesses over the last 50 years, each hitting 8-figures per year. He explains why mindset is the #1 reason most entrepreneurs never hit $1M a year in revenue and shares the lessons he learned from his mentor who built the first black-owned billion-dollar company. If you want to learn how to acquire businesses with little of your own money, build systems that allow them to run without you, and develop the perseverance to succeed, this conversation is for you.
