The Entrepreneurial Journey (ft. Reid Tileston)

Reid Tileston is an author, keynote speaker and expert in Entrepreneurial Business Ownership. With 

the release of his new book, Grit It Done, Reid shares his insights from over 15 years of successful, on-the-ground Entrepreneurial Business Ownership that led him to acquire, grow, and ultimately sell 4 different

 companies with successful exits.

 

His most recent acquisition resulted in a 10x return multiple of invested

capital (MOIC). Reid has exhibited sustained success from being a top performing Anytime Fitness franchisee to working with leading brands such as Harley Davidson, The Milwaukee Bucks, John Deere, Tough Mudder, Master Lock and Microsoft. Additionally, he has been featured in publications including The Wall Street Journal and Crain’s.

"I want people to proactively choose either to do it or not to do it so that they can get all in to whatever makes the most sense for them." 

 

Key themes included:

1. Business acquisition vs. startup benefits

2. Financial advantages of business buying

3. Financing accessibility like SBA loans

4. Entrepreneurial journey and personal control

5. Small businesses' economic contribution

6. Knowledge and resource investment importance

7. Relationship-building for business success
