    Dan Henry | He Delivered Pizza for 7 Years… Here's How He Made $45 Million

    23/10/2026 | 1h 3 mins.
    Dan Henry is an entrepreneur, bestselling author, and founder of GetClients.com who has generated approximately $45 million in business revenue. After spending seven years delivering pizza, he transformed his career by mastering sales, marketing, and persuasive communication.

    In this episode of the School of Hard Knocks podcast, Dan shares how he generated his first $10 million without a social media following, developed million-dollar webinar strategies, and scaled an offer to $950,000 per month.

    He explains how wealthy people approach opportunities, why communication is one of the most valuable business skills, and how entrepreneurs can build profitable businesses around solving expensive problems.

    The conversation also explores his personal struggles, business comeback, high-ticket sales strategies, and philosophy of pursuing what you're best at rather than blindly following your passion.

    Omar Soliman is the co-founder of College HUNKS Hauling Junk & Moving, a national franchise business generating roughly $300 million in systemwide annual revenue.

    After starting the company with a borrowed cargo van, Omar and his co-founder bootstrapped the business, became the first entrepreneurs to reject a deal on Shark Tank, and later raised minority private-equity capital at an approximately $140 million valuation.

    In this episode, Omar explains how they scaled from two founders in a truck into a national operating system, why franchising became their growth engine, and what entrepreneurs must change as they move from startup to scale.

    We also discuss hiring, leadership, focus, education, resourcefulness, surviving recessions, and why building real wealth is often a “get rich slow” process.
