Now what? If you’re Tanner Herget , you build another…and another…and another. It’s hard enough to grow one business from scratch, but Tanner is the textbook definition of a serial entrepreneur . It’s all he’s known since 22 years old, when he left his full-time job to open his own restaurant. That business failed. Most inexperienced entrepreneurs would’ve walked away. For Tanner, giving up wasn’t an option . He quickly pivoted, transforming his struggling restaurant into a popular nightclub. It kept the lights on, but it also gave him the confidence to tackle his next venture . Over the next 20 years, Tanner started more than a dozen businesses , many of which he still owns and operates today—from cash-flowing, brick-and-mortar establishments to long-term equity plays. Today, we discuss what makes a business “work,” the hidden risks of partnerships , and the three-pronged approach to building wealth through entrepreneurship . Whether you’re launching your first startup or actively scaling, Tanner shares the strategy, mindset, and grit it takes to keep going when others would quit.
