The $1 Billion Secret: How He Built An Empire With ZERO Debt
This episode was sponsored by Cardiff LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Michael Sanciprian. He cleaned gym pools as a broke teenager growing up in a gang-torn neighborhood, & today he owns World Gym International, the publicly traded fitness empire behind hundreds of locations across Asia. Michael breaks down the "Elevator Effect," his mindset system for refusing to settle on the wrong floor in life. He explains the war board he keeps in his office to crush competitors, and why he calls the customer-is-always-right rule the biggest lie in business. He also gets into how he kept his gyms open through Covid while everyone else shut down. Money was never the scorecard for Michael — winning was. This episode is proof that the people who refuse to settle are the ones who end up owning the whole board. 🔗 Connect with Mike Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goal.toinspire/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-sanciprian-05378ba/?isSelfProfile=false Website: https://www.worldgymtaiwan.com Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.
