Join me as I interview Justin Willess, a former mechanical engineer who acquired a construction business, Iron Pony, in 2022.

Unfortunately, after growing the business dramatically from $12M to $18M in one year, Justin had to shut the business down in September of 2023.

Justin was generous enough to share with us his honest story of what exactly went wrong (and what he could’ve done differently) so we can all learn from his mistakes.
