    I’m Rafik Moore, founder of Brait Capital and Value Add Network, and in this episode of the Value Add Podcast, I sit down with Brian Rand, founder of Event Sales Agency. Brian has worked alongside Grant Cardone, helped build Cardone Ventures, and been behind hundreds of live events with more than 100,000 tickets sold for clients. But this conversation goes far beyond events.

We also get into: • What Brian learned working with Grant Cardone • The economics behind successful live events • Why selling can be one of the highest forms of service • Turning experience into a competitive advantage • Finding opportunities in commercial real estate others overlook • Why I created Value Add Network • How the right community can accelerate your growth • What happens when investors, operators, and deal finders start adding value to each other One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in business and real estate is that you don’t have to build alone.
