Dan Martell
About this episode

"How do you build a $100 million company in three years?"

This was the challenging question from one of my coaching members, who recently sold his company.

Sound audacious right?

Depends on who you ask.

I’ve had dozens of friends do it.

Some of them BILLION dollar companies.

And when I think of the conversations I've had with each of them…

What was it like when they were first getting started?

What challenges did they overcome?

What was the process they went through to become attractive enough for to somebody buy them for $100 million?

I discovered some unexpected strategies that I want to share with you today.
