    Fatherhood, Finance & Patriotism: The Conversation Every Man Needs to Have Right Now

    Fatherhood, finance, and patriotism — three things that shape how families are built, how futures are protected, and how communities stay strong. This conversation with Marcus Haney launches a new series centered on the values that matter most: showing up as a father, taking responsibility for the future, and loving America enough to strengthen it from the inside out. Marcus is a Marine veteran, entrepreneur, father of five, and leader of AllegiantVETS, one of the largest SkillBridge operators in the country. In this conversation, he shares lessons from military service, fatherhood, entrepreneurship, and helping more than 20,000 service members transition into civilian careers. The discussion gets personal — from raising kids in a blended family, to discipline and respect in the home, to investing in yourself, buying real estate, coaching football, honoring those who serve, and building a legacy that outlives you. Strong families build strong communities. Strong communities build a stronger America.______________________________________________________________ If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region. -Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​... -  Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

    Buy Businesses, Don't Build Them | $75M in Acquisitions

    In this episode, we dive into one of the most overlooked strategies in entrepreneurship: buying businesses instead of starting them. Kasey Cotulla, owner of Delta Print Group, built a $65M+ company (on track for $75M+) not by launching startups—but by acquiring and scaling existing businesses across Northern California. Starting as a forklift driver in a Sacramento print shop, Kasey worked his way up, eventually buying into a struggling company during the Great Recession. From there, he executed a powerful M&A (mergers and acquisitions) strategy, acquiring more than a dozen companies and building one of the largest commercial print and mail operations in the region. In this conversation, we break down:• Why buying a business can be smarter than starting one • How to find and evaluate acquisition opportunities • Financing strategies (SBA loans, seller financing, partnerships) • How to integrate and scale acquired companies • Lessons from building a $75M business in a “mature” industry  If you're an entrepreneur, investor, or operator looking to grow, this episode will change how you think about building a business.

    What does it really take to build a custom dream home? In this episode, we sit down with Paul and Rachel Hills—award-winning designers and builders behind some of the most impressive high-end custom homes in Northern California, Tahoe, and beyond.

We also explore a unique project involving the construction of an underground bunker, complete with a secret door and a Browning vault door designed for security.
