Alright, here’s the deal—Rob Lombardi went from military life to crushing it in business. But it wasn’t all smooth sailing. He took some hits, learned some hard lessons, and figured out what actually works: adding value, knowing when to exit, and making smart moves instead of just chasing money.
His secret weapon? Consulting for equity. Instead of just giving advice, he helps businesses grow and then negotiates a piece of the action. Less risk, more reward. And after some early failures, he’s all about due diligence—knowing exactly what he’s getting into before making a move.
If you’re serious about business—partnerships, exits, valuations, and playing the long game—you need to hear what Rob has to say. Check out the full conversation and see how he’s making big things happen in the restoration industry right now. 🔥 Watch the video.
