How Hustling to Grow Your Business Pays Off with Sam DeMaio | The Arena S3E04
Sam DeMaio is an Army vet who's owned Showcase Remodels since 2002 and has more than 48 rental properties. He bought his first duplex at 19, lived on $100 a month, and still won't buy a car unless his rental income covers it. We talk about the hustler mentality, why social media has people quitting before anything compounds, how EOS showed him his "best" employee was actually his worst, why he spent $35K on a single day with Alex Hormozi, and how he runs his business with AI. Sam also hosts The Relentless podcast.Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsmattboyce/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itsmattboyceListen on other platforms:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0iDnRoY9XZgZN4bYoAWGxA?si=YjsFAl4rRmqzjr4SBNI6IQApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-arena/id1872115910YouTube: https://youtube.com/@itsmattboyce
