Most investors give you money and disappear.

I’m doing the opposite.

Three founders. Australia, the UK, the US. A million each, in local currency. Plus me and the team that took a business from zero to 500 million and a 120 million exit.

I don’t want a nice story. I want you to build something massive, and I’ll be in there with you while you do it.

Idea or already trading, either works.

Applications close 31 December.

📈 COMMENT “MATT” & I’LL DM YOU THE FULL EPISODE!!

In this episode, we sit down with @realmattwright , the serial entrepreneur who left school at 15, moved to Australia with $4-5K in his pocket, and built Cars For Us into a company doing hundreds of millions in revenue before selling it to Toyota for $120 million at just 33 years old. 💰🚗

From working a Telstra call center to becoming the number one salesman out of 70 reps, to scaling a business from zero to a nine-figure exit in just six years, this episode is a raw, unfiltered look at what winning actually costs including the depression, isolation, and family sacrifices that came with it.

🎯 In this raw, unfiltered conversation, we cover:
• Leaving school at 15 in the UK and flying to Australia with just a few thousand dollars
• Becoming the top sales rep in a 70-person call center by a landslide margin
• Building Cars For Us from scratch and becoming the largest online car-buying company in Australia within 60 days
• Turning down a $30M higher offer to sell to Toyota instead and signing the deal at 3am on Christmas Eve
• The chronic depression that hit after the $120M wire finally landed
• Not seeing his daughter Elsie for three and a half years after COVID border closures separated them
• The four traits he believes every successful entrepreneur needs: obsession, motivation, endurance, and focus
• Why he’s now investing $1 million each into three founders in the UK, US, and Australia through Founder Finds Future

This isn’t just a nine-figure exit story, it’s a real look at what it actually takes and what it actually costs to build something massive from nothing 🚀

💰 Comment “CASH” and I’ll send you my FREE cash flow guide 📲
Interest rates are at a 15-year high.
For business owners, that means one thing. Your cash needs to work harder.
When money gets more expensive, knowing your numbers isn’t optional.
Know what’s coming in. Know what’s going out. Know where you’re wasting money. Know where you can create more margin.
I’ve built businesses through different markets, and the businesses that come out stronger are the ones that stay on top of their cash flow and make decisions early.
I’ve put together this guide with the strategies I’d be looking at right now to protect cash flow, improve margins and make smarter decisions when money gets expensive.

Comment “BUY” and I’ll send you the guide to buying a business that already works, what to check, where to find them, and how to fund it 💪

Starting from zero kills about 90% of businesses.
So maybe don’t start from zero.

Buy one that’s already got customers, cash coming in, and systems that work. You skip the empty beginning that wipes most people out. Fix what’s broken, then scale it. Way less risk, way faster.

The whole car industry was built around you driving to them and taking whatever they offered you on the day.

@realmattwright flipped that and took a risk none of the big groups were willing to take. 🔥

Have a listen to how he pulled it off. Link in bio.
