Millionaire Immigrant Risks It ALL to Build a $110M Empire
Hey podcast powerhouses! Your bold guide to breaking the mold is back again with a fresh new episode and guest, unfiltered and nothing but the truth to be told. Today I’m chatting with Ismael Valdez—self-made legend who went from $0 to MILLIONAIRE! Ismael Valdez is a Mexican immigrant who hustled from supply house clerk to selling his HVAC beast for $110M, then bet it all on Nuva, the thermostat disrupting Honeywell’s grip (now valued at $80-100M in under 2 years!). Immigrant roots, faith-fueled grit, and a “go broke to get rich” vibe—let’s unpack why he’s rewriting the contractor playbook!
Get ready to rethink risk and riches!
Highlights
-Risking It All: Ishmael’s “go broke to get rich” mindset could transform your contractor hustle.
-Tech Revolution: Nuva’s thermostat tech slashes customer acquisition costs—why aren’t you using it?
Thanks for listening! Shoutout to sponsors Service Titan and Rilla for powering our growth. Check out Nuva at nuva.com or connect with Ishmael on Instagram/Facebook at Ismael Valdez CEO or join his New Networks Group. Keep hustling, folks!
