What happens when a company exits? When a company exits, it means that ownership of the company changes hands, either through a sale or transfer of ownership. The specific details of what happens when a company exits depend on the type of exit and the terms of the agreement. Having an exit strategy is crucial for any business because it helps the company plan for the future and ensures a smooth transition of ownership. Without a proper exit strategy, a company may be forced to sell under unfavorable terms, or it may be difficult to find a buyer or successor. Rick Sapio, CEO of Mutual Capital Alliance (MCA), Inc., joins us on the Greatness Machine to talk about his entrepreneurial journey and what he aims to achieve in working with private companies. In this episode, Darius and Rick discuss the importance of building core values and business exit reasons and strategies. Rick also talks about the Exit Concierge Service and what they do to help privately-owned & PE-backed companies through the often grueling and difficult Exit Process. Topics include: How Rick's entrepreneurial journey started How Rick helps his kids build their values What they do at Mutual Capital Alliance (MCA) How the MCA Exit Concierge Service helps companies through the exit process Differences between strategic and financial buyers And other topics… Connect with Rick: Website: https://mutualcapitalalliance.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ricksapio  Email: rsapio@mutualcapitalalliance.com  Connect with Darius: Website: https://therealdarius.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/ YouTube: https://therealdarius.com/youtube Book: The Core Value Equation https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 This episode is sponsored by Porkbun.

Since that time he has founded more than 20 companies. Rick is the seventh of nine children raised by a mother with serious, life-long mental-health issues. He learned early in life that it's best to think positively about the cards one's been dealt; no matter how difficult those cards seem. Since 1994, Rick has been the founder and CEO of Mutual Capital Alliance, Inc. (“MCA”), a financial holding company. MCA both directly, and through its affiliated funds, has invested into more than 120 different companies. He is a founding GP of Mutual Capital Partners, a private equity firm, since 2003.

In the 4 decades since he started his first business, Rick has learned that business growth and success are accelerated when a few key principles are applied. When Rick realized that less than 1% of companies implement these skills, he created "The 12 Foundational Principles of Business;” which form the foundation of his BFS program.

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.” - Anais Nin In this episode, Jake and Gino discuss how values-based decision making has impacted a tough choice they had to recently make in their real estate investing business.  They recently sold a multifamily property in Louisville, KY, which is a rare occurrence as they typically like to hold assets for the long term. There were some changes in the state of Kentucky that did not align with their values. George Washington said “Freedom and Property Rights and inseparable. You can't have one without the other.” We value freedom and property rights and therefore, it was time for us to walk away. We challenge you to begin creating core values for your business, if you haven't already. If a situation arises that is not in alignment with your values, then you can act on it and continue to live by those values.   Key Insights: 00:00 Introduction 01:00 Why values-based decision making 02:01 Non-alignment with your core values can cost you dearly 03:42 How to figure out your core values 06:18 How Jake & Gino apply values-based decision making in their Multifamily deals/transactions 11:40 The 100 Year Mindset 14:38 “Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.” - Anais Nin 19:15 Your happiness with your spouse is most important 21:10 You need clarity to design your life 23:20 “We see the world, not as it is, but as we are──or, as we are conditioned to see it.” - Stephen R.

He was given only 6 more weeks to live, but ended up having another two and a half years which he spent teaching Rick and his siblings how to be resourceful. Rick believes that it was his father who instilled in him good values from which he was able to make good decisions. Rick then goes on to talk about the first business he started. He earned his first income by delivering New York Daily News to over 200 doorsteps each morning, seven days a week. Then when he was thirteen years old, he opened a bicycle shop with one of his friends. He would buy used bikes, fix them up and sell them. This later evolved into him building engines and cars through college. At the age of twenty-three, he was able to buy three rental properties. We then move on to talking about the one thing that Rick believes really changed his life. After his father died, Rick was determined to find mentors. His first mentor advised him to get an engineering degree and even though Rick never thought about college before, after that one conversation his path was set. He was able to get a scholarship and after he graduated he got a job in a company that bought bonds of bankrupt companies. As a result of doing that in the late 80s and early 90s he got to interact with some amazing people that were in that same space, people like Warren Buffett, Carl Icahn, and Leon Black. This led to Rick starting his own company, which he still has twenty-seven years later. Then we discuss what value-based decision-making means to Rick. He explains that every decision we make in our life that is not aligned with our values, has a high probability of going against the grain and causing issues. He also shares that his main values are simplicity, probability, and leverage and how his values allow him to do all the things that are important to him, both personally and professionally. Eventually, we discuss Rick's amazing project of interviewing 40 billionaires and the lessons he learned from them. It all started with Rick visiting Thomas Boone Pickens on his ranch (that was bigger than the state of Rhode Island). This was his first billionaire interview and it just kept growing from there. Rick explains that it's all about providing value. He learned that they needed a relationship with him as much as he needed one with them because it was all about value exchange. Lastly, we talk about the 100 Year Saving Solution. A long time ago, one of Rick's friends turned him to dividend-paying whole life insurances. This led Rick to partner with an insurance agency and that is how the 100 year real estate investor was created. The thing that Rick loves most about it is it keeps people focused on the long term. With the 100 Year Saving Solution, the money you invest goes into the policy first, and then you borrow against the policy and buy the asset. This way, you have two assets and a way to leverage.

139: Top Reasons Your Design Firm Needs a Spanx Strategy with Crista Grasso With me today is Crista Grasso, creator of the Lean Out Method and the 90 Day Lean Out Planner. Crista helps growing businesses achieve more by doing less through a combination of strategic planning and lean business practices.   Today we are going to talk about what that looks like for the design industry. There are many actionable activities in this podcast, so get ready to lean out your business.  Topics Mentioned: Specialization and Personalization Innovation Lean Process Review Key Thoughts: You may select a different fabric, you may select a different piece of furniture or art. But you still go through a design process, you still go through a fact-finding process, you still go through an ordering process, and then a fabrication process and an install process. Michele (14:18)  Your process is what allows you to give a really consistent and really high-quality customer experience, make sure you don't miss anything that's important. Crista (15:26)  I have a process that I developed that I work with people on, it's called Chuck. It's called hold, change, keep. And it's really pretty simple. But it's something I tell people to do every single 30 days is every 30 days, you should be going in and just looking across your business, look at the activities that you're doing. Crista (22:07)  Sometimes we just get so clouded with who the person is, and we love the person that we're trying to cram our business around the person instead of saying what does the business need, and then hiring for that position. Michele (24:34)  If we're not always moving forward, you're moving behind, you're moving backwards.

BFS Founder Rick Sapio interviews Max Borges, an entrepreneur who in 2002 founded the Max Borges Agency - a tech-focused public relations firm. In this episode, Rick and Max discuss how Max took his agency from an "AFM" or "Anything For Money" mindset to a mindset of optimism without limitation. This optimism has led Max to countless opportunities both personal and professional that have given him more success than he had ever dreamed of. Through the years he has accumulated bits of wisdom that serve him each and every day. By studying the habits of business and strategy icons, he built his agency to more than 50 employees and $10 million a year in revenue.

Since 1994, Rick Sapio has been CEO of MCA, an investment holding company which has made more than 100 investments. Since 2003, Rick has been a co-founder/GP of Mutual Capital Partners, a PE firm with three funds. He co-authored the best-selling book, Who’s In Your Room: The Secret to Creating Your Best Life. Rick’s life purpose is to inspire entrepreneurship, which led Rick to start www.BusinessFinishingSchool.com (“BFS”); a virtual learning platform designed to help businesses scale quickly and profitably, which has helped thousands of people the past 10 years. Rick learned that business growth and success are accelerated when a few key principles are applied. He created these “Foundational Business Principles” that form the frame of BFS to help successful people become more grounded and focused in their business and personal lives.He is a 1987 graduate of Rutgers University, with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering, and resides in Dallas, Texas with his wife and their four young children.   Rick’s message is simple, yet very difficult for most families to execute upon. Simplicity and rhythms are two keys that Rick credits for his business and family success. What does he mean by that?   His goal as a parent is to raise a god fearing, independent child who can enter the world and take full responsibility for their actions. He was envisioning married and family life even before he was married. He took responsibility for who he married, and for how him and his wife chose to raise their family. He created a family place mat that contains his family's core values, mission statement and other important virtues that his family follows on a routine basis.   Rick shares with the listeners the decisions that will lead to an amazing family life, and how to raise happy and independent children.   To create your own family place mat, visit Family Place Mat.   To learn more about Rick, visit Mutual Capital Alliance.

Tune in as Rick Sapio interviews Daniel Marcos, long-time friend, and CEO/Founder of The Growth Institute. Daniel shares the roadmap to grow your business with less drama, less stress, and less work. When it comes to business growth, he explains there are two types of companies: • Companies that are growing really fast but face a lot of drama and complexity. • Companies that are stuck and want to start growing fast. It might seem like they are in different situations, but they’re actually in the same boat. They both have scaling problems. Daniel believes that there are four stages of company growth. He teaches how to use these stages as a roadmap that guides how your focus, priorities, and key decisions will change as your company grows. The roadmap will prepare you for the barriers you will face and the new skills you need to develop to overcome them.

Ben was supposed to have a day off, but NOPE, that didn't happen! There is never a day off when you are self-employed. Sophia is now writing for Our Homes, is now an ambassador for BNI (which means she'll be responsible for 1 to 2 BNI chapters), she is the guest speaker for a local charity's AGM, and has NO weekends available until. She is gearing up for her busiest season to date, and because of these things, she is trying to maximize her time. Not spending time with toxic people is one of those things. She's had some personal social issues come up which have affected her relationships with good people, and she's not happy about it. So she is investing more time in good people, and reducing the amount of attention the others get. In this episode, Ben and Sophia talk about the types of toxic people you should probably ditch from your social circle. Here's what we look at: Negative people Self-absorbed people Unreliable people People who don't help you with or support your success Find Sophia at @ridiculouslyhappyppl / sophialemon.com Find Benjamin at @benjamin_edward / benjaminedward.ca Find KYSP at @kindofsortofpro Get Who's In Your Room: The Secret to Creating Your Best Life by Dr Ivan Misner, Stewart Emery, and Rick Sapio

Rick Sapio is a lifelong entrepreneur who started his first company when he was 13 years old, after the untimely death of his father. Since then, he has founded more than 20 companies. One of those companies is Mutual Capital Alliance, a financial holding company that has made more than 100 investments over the past 24 years. Rick didn’t necessarily grow up around entrepreneurship. His life was changed over the course of one conversation, when a mentor showed him that accomplishing more is possible (if you learn the necessary skills). Without that mentorship, Rick may never have realized his potential – and it’s just as important for us to find mentors today. Luckily, there is a lot of opportunity for mentorship these days! With the internet, we have access to everyone – you just have to try. “Too many kids today keep their head down, instead of their head up, and you miss a lot of opportunities looking down.” Rick defines being entrepreneurial as the minute you start taking responsibility for your outcomes; a natural response to the human condition. And he believes that we are all responsible for creating our purpose statement, the ultimate outcome of our lives. “If you haven’t taken the time to figure out the reason why you’re on this Earth (and it’s not going to hit you on the head), then I think, every moment of your life, you’re ripping off the world.” Too many people wait until they’re 30, 40, 50 to find their purpose – but you don’t have to. You can choose to keep your head up and start now. Resources: Learn more at businessfinishingschool.com Watch Rick’s TEDxTalk: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v70XLERDX_M)
