John started in retail, pivoted to self-storage, and scaled a vertically integrated empire worth over $100 million. In this high-energy Family Office Club fireside chat, he shares how he raised capital, built teams, failed forward, and exited for millions—all while staying true to his boots-and-jeans authenticity.
✅ How he raised his first $1.5M with no prior track record
✅ Building trust with investors through transparency
✅ Lessons from two exits and a $1.8M personal return
✅ Why being in the right rooms matters more than ever
✅ And yes… the story behind that jacket
This is a masterclass in real estate, resilience, and relationship-driven capital raising.
