Give Me 26 Minutes and I’ll Make You a Master Speaker

Most people talk. Winners communicate. In this video, I’m breaking down the exact strategies top CEOs, negotiators, and power players use to command attention the moment they walk into a room. This isn’t about fluffy “speak from the heart” advice; it’s tactical, tested, and works everywhere from boardrooms to your kitchen table. Want more opportunities, money, and respect? Start by learning to communicate like someone who deserves it.

Hi... I'm Codie.
If we haven't met, I build and buy businesses and help you make money. I used to work on Wall Street and in Private Equity for too many years. Then I realized I'd rather YOU AND I own our businesses locally instead. So I built up Main Street Holding Company, Contrarian Thinking Capital & Co. Now, we own and grow dozens of businesses. My mission is to create 100,000 business owners and help 1 million of us build profitable businesses. I hope you’re one.
Here's what I know for sure... those who say it's impossible should get out of the way of those of you who are doing it!! ❤️
