What's up Action Academy, fam? Welcome back to another episode of Corporate America's Least Favorite

0:04.2

Podcast, the Action Academy podcast, the show where we help you replace corporate with cash flow.

0:09.9

We do this, ladies and gentlemen, through teaching you how to buy small businesses and big old

0:14.0

commercial real estate deals. But today's episode is a bit different from that, and I will tell you

0:19.5

why here. Today's show is with my good friend

0:22.5

Michael Elefonte. Now, he was on the Action Academy podcast previously, and we talked all things

1:37.8

coaching communities to staging companies, to brokerages, to technology companies, all within the Airbnb and short-term rental space.
