About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin

Rich people know a secret. In this book, former Wall Street investor Codie Sanchez pulls back the curtain.

Most people look for wealth in all the wrong places.. From dropshipping and startups to grinding for promotions, you might believe you have to trade your life to be one of the few who win. But the truly rich know these paths are paved with delusion and false promises.

In Main Street Millionaire, Codie Sanchez teaches you the path the wealthy really walk. Instead of risking it all with little chance of success, she shows you how to acquire cash-flowing businesses that are winning right now. Sanchez, one of the world’s leading small business experts, reveals the deal-making framework she’s taught to tens of thousands, and that she’s used to build her own 9-figure holding company. Her secret? She acquires overlooked “Main Street” businesses, or small businesses available to us all on the high street. We’re talking about the unsexy but reliably profitable industries — like plumbing, construction, cleaning, electrical — that white collar workers have overlooked.

In this book, you’ll see practical strategies and step by step processes to acquire cash flow and freedom.
You will learn:

  • Why today’s market is ripe for generational wealth creation
  • How to identify and close amazing business deals, without being wealthy
  • How to 10x your growth after acquiring a small business
  • The seven businesses you should never buy, and why
  • How to own multiple businesses at once (without losing your mind)

Main Street Millionaire will reshape the way you think about your wealth and ownership forever.

However, it’s not for slackers. It’s for those who want meaning and fulfilment while building their community. Codie's no-BS, out-of-the-box wisdom is the antidote to a complacent life of making other people rich.

Fucking unreal!!!

Loved this audiobook.
I’m a small business owner in Melbourne Australia.
I bought into a gym right before the pandemic, stuck at it and now opening up our second location.
This book is such a practical-and entertaining- listen for someone with the drive and hunger like me.
Cudos to you Cody for reading it yourself. It makes the book even better when the author reads it.

My takeaway(relevant for me at this stage of my business lifecycle) is buy add-on/complimentary businesses.
As we expand our physical presence around Melbourne with more locations, there will be opportunities to buy industry related companies.

Cody, if you’re ever in Melbourne and Chris and yourself need a place to train.

Valuable new insights fuelled by a common enemy

The final summary on Codies mission was what really struck me. As a small business owner with a vision to replaced outdated institutions with a more effective solution, this book opened my eyes to acquisition strategies and methods that are hidden from mainstream knowledge. Fired up to unite in this mission to build a better world of owners, entrepreneurs and creators in the music industry.

Actual useful information that I didn't know

It's so rare to read a book that has useful information that I didn't know, and more excitingly a book that has things I didn't know that I didn't know, but this book has it. I hate books with motivational crap and fluffy tales of successful customers that parade themselves as helpful, this is not one of them, this one delivered on actual strategies and "secrets" that regular beginners like me can't find, even though we spend hours and hours and hundreds of dollars on books and courses, sometimes even thousands of dollars with tremendous regret. I'm from New Zealand, and while it is based on American businesses it is extremely relevant to business life here too, I'd almost say it's universally relevant, but I'm not well-travelled enough or experienced enough for that kind of hyperbole. Anyway, best money I've spent since reading Chris Voss' Never Split the Difference.

What a Great Book

Typically it takes me a few days to weeks to get through even the smallest of books, however I finished it in 3 days. This was something different, it really puts in perspective the idea of why you should “zig” when everyone else “zags”. Couldn’t recommend the book enough.

Easy to listen to, good humour and straight to the point

She’s articulate, easy to listen to and straight to the point. She gives good examples of potential add ons to existing businesses for additional income streams which is helpful for people like me, new to business who often didn’t consider add ons. Thanks for sharing, my husband and I enjoyed the book and gave it as a gift to our children (who are also our potential business partners and or successors).
