Welcome back to Building Billions! In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Steve Lagomarsino—a business owner who went from feeling trapped in his own company to building a powerhouse that thrives without him. Steve started out like so many business owners, owning a job, not a business. When he and I connected in 2019, he was tired of dealing with daily fires and searching for a path that would allow him to scale while regaining his life. In this episode, we break down exactly what it took to transform his family business from a $5 million to a $25 million operation—without being tied to every decision. Steve shares the mindset shifts, the hard confrontations with his team, and the strategies we applied together to turn his business into a sustainable, scalable machine. You’ll hear how he built a strong leadership team, set the right culture, and created financial freedom through strategic planning and real estate investments. This conversation will give you a blueprint for building a business that doesn’t rely on you for every single decision. Tune in to learn how Steve redefined success and regained control, and discover how you can do the same with the right focus, discipline, and strategy.Support the show: http://cardoneventures.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
