Early Entrepreneurial Ventures: A $20M Exit:

Paul Hutchinson began his entrepreneurial career with a marketing company focused on mental health, helping individuals overcome anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. At 29, Paul sold the company for $20 million but felt there was more to his mission than financial success, leading him to new ventures.

Pivot into Real Estate: Bridge Loan Capital's Evolution:

After selling his first company, Paul shifted to real estate, founding Bridge Loan Capital, a firm that initially provided short-term, asset-based loans. However, after the 2008 financial crisis, Paul and his co-founder, John Pennington, pivoted into multifamily real estate—a more stable asset class.

Building Integrity: The Bridge Investment Group's Success:

Paul’s success in real estate was driven by a strong commitment to integrity. Maintaining transparency with investors, and prioritizing relationships over short-term gains allowed Bridge Investment Group to thrive. Their ethical approach led to high-profile partnerships, like one with Don Hartman, who invested $300 million.

Mastering Influence: The Key to Raising Capital and Impact:

Whether raising capital or raising awareness for a cause, the key is to ask the right questions, listen closely, and offer solutions that align with others' values. 

The Child Rescue Mission: A Life-Changing Experience:

In 2014, Paul’s life was transformed when he participated in an undercover operation to rescue children from a sex trafficking ring in Cartagena, Colombia. Though initially hesitant to get involved in such a dark issue, Paul’s participation in this mission ignited his passion for child rescue. He has since been involved in more than 70 operations, working directly with law enforcement to free children from trafficking and bring perpetrators to justice.
