Have you ever hit a moment in your business where you stop and ask yourself… What am I actually building?In this episode, I open up about a season of reflection many real estate agents are experiencing right now. The market has shifted, deals feel heavier, margins are tighter, and the models that worked a few years ago don't always make sense today. After coaching agents across the country from $20M producers to $100M+ teams. I keep hearing the same question: “Raquel, what should I be building right now?”And if I'm being honest, I've been asking myself the same thing.Over the past few weeks, between speaking at events, installing systems with agents, attending my first faith-based real estate conference, and watching both of my sons wrap up major basketball seasons, life reminded me of something powerful: business is only one part of the bigger picture.So in this episode, I walk you through the crossroads many agents are standing at right now and the different paths you can take to design a business that actually supports the life you want.Because sometimes Playing Bigger isn't about doing more… it's about getting honest about what you truly want to build.If you're feeling the shift in the industry or questioning your next move, this conversation is for you.Things I Cover in This EpisodeWhy so many real estate agents feel like their business suddenly got heavierHow the market shift is forcing agents to rethink their business modelsThe difference between building a business by default vs. by designThe 4 paths agents are evaluating right nowBuilding and scaling a real estate teamBecoming the listing authority in your marketMoving into luxury or higher price pointsIf this episode made you pause and rethink what you're building, I'd love for you to take the next step with me.Let's design a business that supports the life you want.---

The Long Game in UGC: Building Trust Between Creators and Brands | Elijah Khasabo | 371

What happens when a bored teenager starts a Discord trading group and accidentally discovers the power of video? For Elijah Khasabo, co-founder of Vidovo, it became the foundation for a bootstrapped UGC and influencer platform now serving over 200 brands and 20,000 creators.In this episode, Elijah shares the unfiltered origin story of Vidovo — from running negative for the first six months to crossing 20,000 organic creators without spending a dollar on paid acquisition. He breaks down why building for creators (not brands) is the real flywheel, how AI is actually strengthening the case for real human content, and what it means to stay gritty when the Stripe dashboard shows zero day after day.This is a masterclass in marketplace strategy, relationship-driven growth, and the kind of founder mindset that turns dark days into fuel.Key Takeaways3:52 — **The Origin Story:** Elijah explains how a Discord trading community led to TikTok affiliates generating 100M+ views, sparking his obsession with video and UGC.5:25 — **First Big Win (That Was Really an L):** The Life Fuel cold email that landed after a month of silence — they lost money on the deal but it taught Elijah how to brief, strategize, and actually create content that converts.7:05 — **Going All In:** Why December 2023/January 2024 was the turning point — when brands started buying in and creators began leaving full-time jobs for UGC income.8:22 — **The Creator-First Flywheel:** Why most platforms build for brands (and why that's wrong). Vidovo built for creators first, which indirectly built for brands — because brands go where the best creators are.10:09 — **Growth Without Paid Ads:** Relationship-building and showing up hungry at New York events — how sweating through the city and connecting person-to-person fueled 50–100 new creators per day organically.11:31 — **Bootstrapping Philosophy:** Why going net negative in the early months actually built the right muscles — and why having no investors means entering future fundraising from a position of power.14:02 — **SaaS is Humbling:** Launching at 19, learning to drop the ego, spending months alone building, and understanding that success requires working for it — nobody is just handed a software company.16:04 — **Dark Days:** How Elijah nearly quit multiple times in the first six to eight months when the Stripe dashboard showed zero — and why "I have nothing to lose" became his survival mindset.19:10 — **What Brands Get Wrong with UGC:** Volume is the real issue. Brands come in wanting 2–3 videos when they need 10 minimum to test, iterate, and find what actually converts.20:52 — **AI's Surprising Impact on UGC:** AI content is actually driving more brands *toward* real creators — because consumers don't connect with AI ads the same way, and brands are noticing.24:27 — **Building Creator Community:** Why quality beats quantity in community building — taking negative feedback seriously, building features from creator input, and making people feel heard.31:13 — **Advice for Bootstrapped Founders:** Network relentlessly. Send 5–10 connection requests a day. Ask questions. Be the person willing to help, connect, and listen — doors open through people, not platforms.33:48 — **Final Mindset Principle:** "You can really do anything you put your mind to" — when your goals are all you think about every day, you naturally become the person who achieves them.Tweetable Quotes"When you build for the creator, you're indirectly building for the brand. Brands wanna be where the best creators are." — Elijah Khasabo"I have nothing to lose. I'm 19. Where would I go if I quit? That's the mindset that kept me going through the dark days." — Elijah Khasabo"Entrepreneurship is a game of who. Build the right relationships and doors will open that no budget could buy." — Elijah Khasabo"If you give me a million dollars on day one, it would all be gone. Now I know exactly what to do with it — that's the value of bootstrapping." — Elijah Khasabo"Volume testing is everything in UGC. Don't launch 3 ads and call it a failure. Launch 10, find what works, and iterate." — Elijah Khasabo"AI UGC actually made our industry better. Brands are realizing consumers want real people — and they're coming to us because of it." — Elijah Khasabo"Put your mind toward the right things. If it's all you think about every single day, you're just naturally going to become that person." — Elijah KhasaboSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Build for the underserved side of your marketplace. Vidovo chose creators over brands — the side that doesn't pay. That counterintuitive decision created loyalty, word-of-mouth, and a quality flywheel that now attracts the paying side (brands) naturally. In any two-sided market, ask: who is underserved? That's your moat.2. Losses that teach you are wins in disguise. The Life Fuel campaign cost Elijah money. But it forced him to learn strategy, briefing, and how to create content that converts. In SaaS, early customers who expose your weaknesses are more valuable than easy wins that mask them.3. Bootstrapping builds judgment that money can't buy. Going net negative for six months taught Elijah exactly where dollars should go. When you bootstrap through adversity, you develop operational discipline that funded founders often skip — and that discipline becomes leverage when you do have capital.4. Relationships are your most scalable growth channel. Vidovo scaled to 20,000 creators and 200+ brands without paid acquisition. The engine? Showing up to events, following up, being genuinely helpful, and playing the long game. In a world of funnels and paid media, personal relationships remain the highest-ROI growth lever.5. Volume and iteration beat perfection. Brands that win with UGC don't launch one great video. They launch 10, find 3 winners, iterate on those 3, and test 7 new concepts. This is exactly how product-led SaaS should work too — ship fast, measure, iterate, and let data drive the roadmap.6. Your mindset is your product roadmap. Every dark day Elijah survived made the next one lighter. The founders who push through are the ones who refuse to let the fire go out — not because it's easy, but because they've tied their identity to the mission. Grit isn't a strategy; it's the prerequisite.Guest Resourceselijah@vidovo.comvidovo.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/elijah-khasabo/Episode SponsorThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains

Episode 419 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Chip Hazard, General Partner at Flybridge. Before we get into the details of Chip's career, I have to call out a random fun fact: Chip is the only VC with his own action figure, yes – it's true. There's a DreamWorks animated movie called Small Soldiers. The lead character is named Chip Hazard, voiced by Tommy Lee Jones. As you'll hear in this episode, there's a great story suggesting that the character's name was actually inspired by Chip himself, which absolutely makes sense once you hear the story. But beyond the fun facts, as you'll hear, Chip has a major leg up on most investors because he's successfully navigated multiple platform shifts – from the internet and mobile to the cloud and now AI. What's impressive is that Chip and the team at Flybridge saw this latest AI shift coming long before the hype. For proof, you just have to look at his blog post titled “Applied AI: Beyond the Algorithms” which he published all the way back in 2019. Chip has backed some of the most impactful companies in tech, like MongoDB back when it was still called 10Gen. Today, it's a public company with a $20B+ dollar market cap, and Chip still serves on the board. His portfolio also includes Nasuni which was valued at $1.2 billion following a strategic investment led by Vista Equity Partners in 2024. If you aren't familiar with Flybridge, they are a seed-stage firm investing in ambitious founders leveraging the power of AI. Last September, they announced their latest fund, a $100M seventh fund.

Alexis Sikorsky is a strategic advisor to founders who want to scale fast and exit strong, after building and selling his Switzerland-based banking software company, New Access, in a private equity deal worth over $100M. Drawing on decades of hard-won experience (including painful early failures, a 75% revenue collapse in one day, and a long post-crisis grind), he now helps £5–20M+ revenue businesses design exits instead of hoping for them. In his book Cashing Out: The Business Owner's Guide to Selling to Private Equity, Alexis introduces the APEX methodology, a practical roadmap for founders who want clarity, cashflow, and a life-changing deal beyond their business. On this episode we talk about: Why Alexis calls his early ventures “failures” and how those lessons funded a $100M+ win later The 2008 financial crisis, losing 75% of revenue in a day, and rebuilding New Access without pivoting His grandfather's trade wisdom and the simple “sell higher than you buy” rule most founders ignore Why raising VC money is usually a sign of commercial failure, not success The APEX methodology for planning and executing a private equity exit (from assessment to “dressing the bride”) Top 3 Takeaways Failure is the tuition you pay for wisdom: Alexis estimates the “cost” of his mistakes at 50 million and five years, and he uses that lens to help founders avoid repeating them. Profit is not optional if you want optionality: you must build a business where costs stay below revenue, instead of relying on endless fundraising to plug operational holes. A premium exit is engineered, not accidental: knowing your goal (lifestyle vs. exit, 100M vs. 1B), tracking real-time numbers, protecting your USP, and becoming “private equity ready” 18–24 months ahead are non-negotiable. Notable Quotes “I have a 100% success-rate, no-failure strategy: just don't try anything.” “Raising money is very often a commercial failure—your company isn't good enough yet to be profitable.” “We're not wealthy enough to buy cheap. If you can't afford it, don't buy it—but don't buy the cheap version either.” Connect with Alexis Sikorsky: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexis-sikorsky-consulting Website / Book: https://www.asikorsky.com/my-book (Cashing Out: The Business Owner's Guide to Selling to Private Equity) Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

If you wanted to add $100 million in volume this year, what would actually have to change?   In Episode 6 of the Coaching Q&A, we break down a question that sounds crazy at first: How do you add $100M in volume?   But this isn't about the number. It's about forcing a different level of thinking. When you ask a bigger question, you stop looking for small tweaks and start looking for structural changes.   If you want real growth, you don't need more hustle. You need better leverage, better constraints, and a clearer understanding of where you are the bottleneck. What We Cover: Why Bigger Goals Force Better Strategy – How thinking 10x exposes weak systems. The “Who, Not How” Shift – Why you won't personally execute your way to $100M. Finding the Real Constraint – The bottleneck that must be solved before scale happens. Leverage Over Effort – Why adding volume means redesigning the machine, not pushing harder. You don't stumble into $100M. You build the structure for it.

Rebecca Minkoff arrived in New York City at 18 with no money, no degree, and a low-paid internship that paid $3 an hour. She lived in a relative's playroom just to make it work. Twenty-one years later, she's built a globally recognized fashion empire and become one of the most influential voices in the fashion and entrepreneurial world. But the journey from handing out postcards in Union Square to building a $100 million brand wasn't linear—it was filled with $60,000 in credit card debt, strategic pivots, and bold reinventions. In this interview, the founder and creative director of Rebecca Minkoff breaks down how she went from consignment sales in the East Village to building a licensing empire with 16 partners, why she joined The Real Housewives of New York as a strategic business move, and the exact moment she realized she needed to pivot from vertical integration to a licensing model to survive. What you'll learn in this interview: • How Rebecca survived on $3/hour while building her first collection in NYC • Why she spent $10,000 on pattern-making before getting a single order • How handing out postcards in Union Square led to her first sales • The costly mistakes she made not understanding margins and costing early on • How she landed $60,000 in credit card debt and climbed out of it • Why she pivoted from vertical integration to a licensing model with 16 partners • The strategic decision to join The Real Housewives of New York for one season • How the show tripled website traffic and increased brand awareness by 40% • Why she's telling founders to go back to house parties and grassroots marketing • What's next: kids, loungewear, home, intimates, jewelry, and potentially another book If you're building a fashion brand, navigating the trade-offs between control and scalability, or trying to understand when to pivot your business model, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about reinvention, strategic risk-taking, and what it takes to build a legacy brand.

Interview with Derek Iwanaka, CEO, Prince Silver Corp Recording date: 5th of March 2025Prince Silver Corp is advancing a historic Nevada silver mine toward a maiden resource estimate, with new leadership targeting a substantial 100 million ounce silver equivalent milestone within months. The company represents an early-stage exploration opportunity in one of North America's premier mining jurisdictions, underpinned by a significant historical dataset and recent unexpected discoveries.Derek Iwanaka, who assumed the CEO role three months ago, brings a proven track record from BeMetals, First Mining Gold, and Uranerz Energy. His previous companies have grown to substantial valuations, with First Mining approaching a billion-dollar market cap and Energy Fuels now worth approximately $5 billion following its acquisition of Uranerz.The Prince project operated as a producing mine from 1912 to 1949 before shutting down when silver prices fell to $0.79 per ounce. Prince Silver acquired the asset in 2025 and immediately commenced drilling below the historical workings. The results have revealed significant gold mineralization that was neither previously mined nor documented in exploration records, adding an unexpected value component beyond the silver-focused thesis.Management is pursuing an aggressive timeline, targeting a resource estimate by July 2026 with a fallback to Q4. The strategy leverages 130 historical drill holes from previous operators, allowing the company to accelerate development by several years compared to typical greenfield exploration. With $8 million in cash, Prince Silver has adequate capital to complete its current 9,000-meter drilling program plus an additional phase if required.The company currently trades at a market capitalization below $40 million, representing a significant discount to peers with similar resource sizes that typically command valuations exceeding $100 million. This valuation gap suggests potential for substantial rerating upon successful delivery of the resource estimate.The Nevada location provides critical advantages, including streamlined permitting processes and potential fast-track treatment due to the presence of federally designated critical minerals. Nine drill holes are expected to be announced within weeks, providing near-term validation of the investment thesis ahead of the formal resource calculation.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Learn How to Let Consumption Drives Revenue & Turn Content Into Your Most Powerful Sales Engine Consumption drives revenue and in this episode, we pull back the curtain on exactly why the businesses winning right now aren't the ones with the biggest ad budgets, but the ones building audiences that actually engage with their content. We're joined by two powerhouse guests who reveal the three ingredients guaranteed to drive revenue for creators, why the traditional marketing funnel born in the 1800s is officially dead, how AI is leveling the playing field for first-time sellers, and why the most overlooked hiring strategy might just be a Facebook Live stream. Whether you're selling digital products or scaling a service business, this episode will completely change how you think about content, community, and conversion. Justin Smith is the CEO of SamCart.com, where he helps tens of thousands of creators sell smarter, boost conversions, and maximize customer value at every touchpoint. With a background in seed-stage startups and high-growth SaaS companies, Justin has been a zero-to-one product builder, scaled companies to millions in revenue, and contributed to over $100M in capital raised. Ricky Regalado is a serial entrepreneur, visionary, and the driving force behind Rosalotto, a Latino-owned building services company expanding across 20+ states, as well as the founder of the niche hit podcast Cleaning and Cocktails, which now reaches over 2 million impressions per week across 30 countries. Both guests bring rare, real-world insight into what it actually takes to grow beyond seven figures. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The more content your audience consumes, the shorter your sales cycle becomes. Grit, compelling sales copy, and a warm audience are the three non-negotiables for creator success. Being world-class at your craft does not automatically translate into revenue without strong conversion copy. AI tools like ChatGPT helped SamCart jump onboarding conversions from 3% to 16% using AI-generated landing pages. The traditional short-form funnel is dead and today's buyers only operate in impulse purchase or long-term content relationship mode. Google's post-2020 data confirms buyers cycle through exploration and evaluation before committing, making consistent content non-negotiable. A community-driven brand is one of the most powerful and underutilised recruiting strategies available to growing businesses. Celebrating every role in your organisation, not just leadership, directly drives pride, performance, and retention. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats.

Want to scale your business faster?Join our 2-day, interactive workshop: https://www.acquisition.com/workshop-yt-d?el=yt-alex-485w&htrafficsource=youtubeMost business owners aren't “bad at business.” They're just selling to broke people and then act surprised when the close rate is trash, churn is high, and customers complain nonstop. In this episode of The Game, Alex breaks down the uncomfortable truth: if you want to make money, you have to go where the money is. A small percentage of buyers control a massive percentage of the wealth, which means if you price and position your business for “everyone,” you end up building a business for the people who can't pay. The goal is simple. Pick a better customer, build a bigger offer, and charge in a way that makes you more money with fewer sales.YouTube Timestamps00:00 Why businesses struggle to make money04:32 Applying the Pareto principle in profits07:21 Top-down business and pricing strategy16:10 Sell to the rich - they pay better, complain less28:47 Picking price points: value over cost32:50 How close rates reveal underpriced commodities38:41 Stop selling commodities and raise prices systematicallyMore Value:Discover The Easiest Business I Can Help You Start (Free Trial): https://www.skool.com/hormoziJoin The In-Person Scaling Workshop In Las Vegas: https://www.acquisition.com/o-vegasDownload your free $100M scaling roadmap here: https://www.acquisition.com/roadmap?el=yt-alex-486r&htrafficsource=youtubeGet the $100M Book Bundle: https://shop.acquisition.com/pages/100m-book-bundleTake the $100M Lead Generation Course: https://www.acquisition.com/training/leads?hsLang=enLearn How to Make Offers People Cannot Refuse: https://www.acquisition.com/training/offers?hsLang=enFollow Alex Hormozi's Socials:⁠⁠LinkedIn ⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Acquisition ⁠

Get the unfiltered memos I send my team as we scale Acquisition.com to $1B+: Leila's Letters https://leilahormozi.com/subscribeYour business is not stuck because of market limits or bad strategy. It simply lacks the capacity to absorb opportunities. In this episode, Leila breaks down the real reason so many founders feel like they are “leaving money on the table,” arguing that opportunity is everywhere, but the ability to absorb it is what actually determines growth. She explains how leaders often blame timing, strategy, or market conditions when the real issue is a business that is too fragile, too maxed out, and too underbuilt to handle new demand, new tests, or big pivots. Leila zeroes in on the difference between choosing to wait and being forced to wait, and why growth without excess capacity creates stress instead of momentum.In this episode00:00 Why business growth stalls02:39 Four types of capacity every business needs10:34 How to build capacity before success12:02 Why growth without capacity breaks companies15:14 Three diagnostic questions to assess capacityMore Value:Get your free personalized $100M roadmap here: https://www.acquisition.com/roadmap
