    Since the age of 17, I’ve only done one thing: building businesses.
    Fast forward 27 years, and I’m the founder of Martell Ventures, a portfolio of companies generating over $100M in revenue.
    Every week, I get thousands of DMs from business owners seeking advice, and I see the same stuff come up often.
    So, I’ve decided to share all my best business knowledge in today’s video.
    This video is packed with insights and strategies to help you start, grow, and eventually sell your business, all while maintaining your sanity.
    I’ve distilled 27 years of business experience into this short video, covering:
    1. The worst mistake most people make when starting their first business
    2. The best advice I got from Steve Jobs on how to choose the right industry
    3. The #1 skill that you need to work on to start a successful business
    4. The biggest lever you can pull to grow your business (even if you’re just in the early days)
    5. The exact process I use to sell a business
    I bet it wouldn’t have taken me 27 years to achieve what I’ve achieved if I’d watched this video in my 20s.
    27 minutes to save you a few years?
    Sounds like a good deal to me.

Loved your book, but trying to bring my partner on board for years (won't read biz books), I think this video sets the action steps needed to get to the next level. Very grateful 🙏

      Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final. Personally I had to reach out to a stock expert for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to $35k, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again.

    If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

      The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

    I began my investment journey at the age of 38, primarily through hard work and dedication. Now at the age of 42, I am thrilled to share that my passive income exceeded $100k in a single month for the first time. This success reinforces the importance of the advice mentioned earlier. It is not about achieving quick wealth, but rather ensuring long-term financial prosperity

      Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation.

      Through closely monitoring the performance of my portfolio, I have witnessed a remarkable growth of $483k in just the past two quarters. This experience has shed light on why experienced traders are able to generate substantial returns even in lesser-known markets. It is safe to say that this bold decision has been one of the most impactful choices I have made recently.

      Exactly my solution too, even though I'm not retired. As a contractor with limited time to analyze investments, I've relied on a fiduciary for the past seven years to manage my portfolio. This strategy has helped me navigate market fluctuations effectively and also increased my porfolio by up to 300%. You might consider a similar approach.

    My life changed when I realized that no one was coming to save me. If you take your life seriously you will see a lot of improvement. I made the decision to start cryptocurrencies earlier last year at 38, just 1 year plus a few months since I started, I have grown my portfolio to over 100k, I know this isn't much but it wasn't easy to inspire myself. I really thank God for my journey so far and also connecting me with the right people.
