In this segment of "Secrets of the Entrepreneurial Mind" on Passage to Profit Show, our panel reveals powerful entrepreneurial tactics about mindset, negotiation, and spotting opportunity before others do. The discussion explores why successful entrepreneurs believe you make money when you buy, not when you sell, how to approach negotiations with clear goals and real leverage, and why testing ideas like “seeds” can help founders discover which opportunities are worth pursuing. The conversation also dives into the entrepreneurial drive to solve frustrating problems, the reality that leaders often operate without a map, and why resilience is essential when navigating uncertainty.

Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of the Passage to Profit Show, have this discussion with commercial real estate powerhouse Todd Drollett of TITAN Commercial Realty Group and star of A&E’s The Real Estate Commission, crypto retirement expert Chris Kline of Bitcoin IRA, and literacy innovator Jessica Sliwerski of Ignite Reading.
