In this episode of The Deal Podcast, Dan Daly shares his remarkable journey from selling cars on the wholesale lot to overseeing ultra-luxury brands like Bugatti and Bentley, and now leading a $50M international private equity fund focused on boutique hospitality properties.

Dan dives into:

• How competitive discipline (like training for an Ironman) shapes success in business
• Lessons from the car sales floor that translate directly to dealmaking and turnarounds
• His experience scaling automotive dealerships from underperformers to global leaders
• The mindset required to thrive in international investing and lifestyle-driven real estate
• His upcoming Golden Visa Fund targeting high-growth opportunities in Portugal, Costa Rica, and Japan

This is a masterclass in execution, customer experience, and the power of betting on yourself.
