The Vince Perri Podcast

Hosted by Vince Perri, this podcast is a direct, practical conversation for business owners, operators, and investors who want to build companies that are durable, disciplined, and ultimately sellable. Each episode sits at the intersection of mindset, operations, and enterprise value. Vince breaks down how owners must think differently once they decide to build an asset instead of buying themselves a job. This includes owner psychology, decision-making under pressure, long-term thinking, and the mental shift required to let go of control and build real leverage. On the operational side, the show goes deep into the mechanics that buyers care about most: profit quality, clean financials, systems, SOPs, leadership structure, and execution discipline. Vince explains how buyers evaluate businesses using EBITDA and SDE, why operational chaos destroys valuation, and how strong processes and teams reduce risk and increase multiples. You will hear clear frameworks, real-world examples, and actionable insights on how to align mindset with execution so the business can function without the owner in the center of everything. No hype. No motivational fluff. Just clear thinking, operational rigor, and proven principles for building a business that runs well today and sells well tomorrow.
