#124: Scaling and Breaking Glass Ceilings - Marc Kuhn Marc Kuhn started pouring concrete at 21, got fired, had a mortgage and a fiance making $12 an hour. Today he runs four companies doing close to 50 million in total revenue with 80 million in assets under management. In this episode Marc breaks down how he scaled from a one man concrete crew to a multi company operation, what glass ceilings actually look like when you hit them, the panic attack that changed everything, and why you are always the bottleneck in your own business. Raw, real, and loaded with stuff you can act on today. 📲 Connect with Marc:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marc.kuhn.mak/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marc-kuhn/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@marckuhnmak Book a free strategy call with Phaser Marketing (775) DIRT-BAG: https://calendly.com/d/cm59-rf4-hgq/investing-in-a-new-construction-website?month=2025-05 Huge Thanks to our sponsors: Charlie Huff - Need a certificate of insurance?
