    From $0 to $120M, Dominic Rubino’s Secrets to Entrepreneurial Success

    This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Dominic Rubino. Dominic is an interesting Misfit. He is a serial entrepreneur who’s had businesses in Construction Trades, Contracting, Mail Order, Pharmaceuticals, Real Estate, & Business Coaching. But It took a long time for Dominic to feel like he could call himself an entrepreneur and the turning point came AFTER he took his business from zero to over 120 million in sales (with, as he says, some serious internal dysfunctions!). You may have heard of him, not so much from what I I’ve shared, but as the host of two very popular podcasts, “Profit Tool Belt” and “Cabinet Maker Profit System.” He’s also the author of the book Construction Millionaire Secrets. Domini is a true misfit and Swiss army knife of entrepreneurship, so we’re going to hit on all kinds of topics in this episode.

    From Orphan to Wall Street CEO: Ed Hajim’s Inspiring Journey of Resilience, Leadership, and Entrepreneurial Success

    This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Ed Hajjim. Ed is a long-time Wall Street executive and entrepreneur with over 50 years of experience. Most people that hear his origin story are amazed that he ended up where he has. But, in reality, Ed has one of the best stories that is the truest testament to the American Dream and what is possible that I have ever heard. And I’m excited for him to share it today. But first, I mentioned 50 years’ experience. Here is a little bit of Ed’s pedigree… Ed has held senior management positions with the Capital Group, E.F. Hutton and Lehman Brothers before becoming chairman and CEO of Furman Selz. He was the co-chairman of ING Barings, Americas Region; chairman and CEO of ING Aeltus Group and ING Furman Selz Asset Management; and chairman and CEO of MLH Capital. Presently, he is chairman of High Vista, a Boston-based money management company. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, he began an eight-year tenure as chairman of the university’s board. Upon assuming that office, he gave the school $30 million—the largest single donation in its history—to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Through his Family Foundation, he has made generous donations to organizations that promote education, health care, arts, culture and conservation. Ed is the author of several books including, the Road Less Traveled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom. And I’m excited to squeeze as much wisdom as I can from him in our time together in this episode. To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com.

    Lessons For Hannah - How To Get Rich

    Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven’t listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives. Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I’m going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don’t hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com. We’d love to share it. To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com. Show Sponsors: 5 Minute Journal: www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com/Journal

    The Dream Machine, Unleashing Team Potential and Business Success with Dane Espegard

    This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Dane Espegard.  This conversation today holds a special place for me as Dane is division leader for Vector Marketing.  Some of you may know Vector or even worked for them as they are the company behind Cutco knives.  I have talked about this before, but I initially cut my teeth in selling and paid for my college selling Cutco.  Everyone that works for them is a contractor building their own business, whether a salesperson, district, division manager and so on.  To get to running a division means you are one of the best at developing people, especially young people.  And over 2 decades, Dane has built a division that has sold over $51 million in cutlery!  A $50+ million-dollar business selling knives primarily through high schoolers and young adults.  If you can do that, you are doing something right.  So, you can understand why I’ve invited Dane on the show to share his secrets for building a great business and organization.   It's great timing too as he has released the book, The Dream Machine: A Leader's Guide to Creating Teams of High Performers Who Achieve Extraordinary Outcomes.

    422: How Talia Boone Disrupted the Floral Industry During the Pandemic and Built a Massive Company

    This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Talia Boone.  Talia is the founder of Postal Petals, a floral industry startup that is changing the entire industry.  Now, here’s the interesting thing, Talia founded the company in the middle of the pandemic and lockdowns.  If you remember, businesses like that were shut down and for many, the last thing on their mind was getting some flowers.  But Talia bucked the trend and created a new model that thrived during that time and continues to today. How did she do it and go on to build such a great company re-inventing the way flowers are bought?  Well, it’s those lessons and principles that I want to dig in with her in this episode.
