  • Great companies aren't built on ideas alone—they’re built on execution. As Karl Alomar aptly said, "You don’t need innovation to build a great company, but you must have operational excellence." Innovation is a powerful catalyst, but without exceptional execution, even the best ideas will fall flat.

    This perspective resonates deeply with my journey. Building a nearly nine-figure company from scratch taught me that success hinges on operational excellence, culture, and disciplined execution.

    Here are three key takeaways for anyone striving to build not just a good company, but a great one:

    - Execution beats Ideas: A groundbreaking idea without execution is just a dream. Focus on operational discipline to turn innovation into impact.

    - Culture is the Catalyst: Great culture attracts A+ players, and A+ players drive excellence. Prioritize creating an environment where your team thrives.

    - Continuous Improvement: Success isn’t a one-time event. It’s a daily commitment to learning, adapting, and optimizing every aspect of the business.

    Innovation might open the door, but operational excellence is what ensures you walk through it.

  • In this episode of BUILD, I sit down with Jason Haugen, a young entrepreneur who's built nine-figure businesses while keeping his eye on what matters most. We talk about the crucial ways rich and poor mindsets diverge – especially on money habits. Jason opens up about how buying that first Rolex or high-end car often comes with a need for external validation, only to realize that real wealth is about cash flow, assets, and investing in people and purpose.

    Jason shares hard-won insights from his journey, from flipping businesses and managing large teams to the power of culture and a close-knit team. We dig into the importance of self-awareness and how early sacrifices and intentional choices separate those who just get by from those who thrive.

    If you're an entrepreneur or aspiring millionaire looking to shift your mindset, scale your business, or just avoid common pitfalls, tune in. Jason’s journey and insights could be exactly what you need to level up.
