Business School with Sharran Srivatsaa

- We Made a Big Decision - https://youtu.be/g3QTLRlmevc?si=Sn2XGhYNvs1dLlDj

Most founders are busy scaling, but very few are designing a billion-dollar machine. In this episode, Sharran pulls back the curtain on Acquisition.com’s internal blueprint for building a multi-billion-dollar private equity enterprise. Instead of vague theory, he breaks down the exact structural decisions, strategic bets, and leadership shifts driving their next phase of growth.

He explains what stepping into the CEO role really means. Alongside Alex and Leila Hormozi, the team is dividing responsibilities into three core engines, each designed to scale independently but compound together.

Listeners will also get insight into the five major initiatives shaping their future, including a billion-dollar real estate strategy, an AI-first operating model, and a bold “category king” investment thesis.

This episode is a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how elite operators think, plan, and execute at scale and how you can apply the same frameworks to your own business.

“There's so much opportunity for all of us in the future that one of us can't chase all of it.”

How I Run Interviews

- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/

Hiring A-players? Forget the traditional interview playbook. Learn the new way to assess talent and make smarter hiring decisions.

In today’s episode, Sharran walks us through the modern interview process he uses to hire top talent at Acquisition.com. Ditching outdated behavioral interviews, he shares a three-part method that goes beyond scripted answers and reveals how candidates actually think and work in real-life situations.

Whether you're hiring for your team or looking to enhance your interviewing skills, this episode will teach you the techniques to spot the true A-players.

“The most-cited meta-analysis of hiring is called the Schmidt and Hunter study. They found that work sample tests, essentially giving the candidates something to do with case studies and problem-solving simulations, like getting them to actually think through a situation, outperform every single traditional interview when it comes to predicting future performance.”

How Billionaires Avoid Taxes

Tue, 30 Dec 2025 04:00:00 -0400

- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/

Most people think taxes are unavoidable once their investments grow. But billionaires play a completely different game. In this episode, Sharran breaks down the single strategy the wealthiest individuals use to access liquidity without selling assets or paying capital gains taxes.

You’ll learn how securities-based lending works, why borrowing is not a taxable event, and how billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and others use their portfolios as personal banks. More importantly, Sharran explains how this strategy applies to everyday investors with far smaller portfolios.

Sharran also walks through the real risks—margin calls, interest rate exposure, and poor capital allocation—so you understand when this tool is powerful and when it can destroy wealth.

If you want your money to keep compounding while still funding real estate, business growth, or new opportunities, this episode gives you the playbook.

“The greatest hack in wealth creation is to become your own bank so that you can borrow from yourself.”

Everyone wants to be rich, but most people don’t know that the habits of the wealthy are often very different from what society expects. In this episode, Sharran breaks down the five core actions and mindsets that set the rich apart. For example, rich people understand that every decision comes with a cost, and they make those decisions with full awareness of what’s at stake.

They aren’t concerned with impressing others. It’s not about flaunting wealth; it’s about building wealth through sound decisions and actions. Plus, they fix problems through behavior changes, not just apologies, and they consistently try again even after failure. Finally, rich people give the greatest gift: their full attention.

Learn these simple yet powerful habits anyone can start implementing today.

“Rich people understand trade-offs. The one thing rich people understand is that every choice costs something.”

The Algorithm Is Lying To You

Tue, 16 Dec 2025 04:00:00 -0400

- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/

Social media has become part of our everyday lives, but that doesn’t make it trustworthy. The most dangerous part isn’t the misinformation itself–it’s how believable it looks.

In this cautionary episode, Sharran exposes how social media algorithms manipulate what you believe, especially about money. He reveals that most viral financial content isn’t built to help you–it’s built to profit from your clicks. Backed by shocking data from FINRA, Sharran explains why over 70% of online finance posts fail basic compliance standards and how influencers earn more from your attention than your success.

He dives into the psychology of algorithmic incentives, showing how platforms reward confidence over accuracy and how that distorts the truth. You’ll also learn three simple rules to spot fake gurus and protect yourself from misleading advice online. Stop making decisions based on what you see or hear from social media-verify the information from more reliable sources.

“Whoever is shouting loudest–the biggest, loudest advice–about money is often giving the worst advice about money.”

Followers Are Officially Dead

- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/

Is your follower count lying to you? Sharran reveals why social media followers are officially dead and why that’s actually great news. In this episode, he breaks down how algorithms have shifted from social media to interest media, meaning your audience is no longer the people who follow you–it’s whoever the algorithm decides will care about your content.

Sharran shares the real metrics that matter now (spoiler: it’s not likes) and explains why saves and shares are the new currency of reach. You’ll learn how to engineer viral growth by asking one simple question before hitting publish: “Why would someone share this?”

This episode will completely change how you think about social media, virality, and growth in the creator economy.

The Action Filter

Most people don’t fail because they’re lazy. They fail because they don’t know what to do next.

That’s where the Action Filter comes in. It's a tactical system that helps you break down advice into steps you can execute immediately. It helps turn vague advice into clear, executable steps that drive results.

Sharran walks through real-world examples from Michael Jordan, Marvel, and Steve Jobs to show how elite performers turn plans into results. If you’re tired of motivation without action, this episode will give you the clarity you need to move forward.

Imagine you can have a perfect day every single day. How we spend our days indicates how we spend our lives. But first, you have to know what a perfect day looks like for you. How do you design a repeatable, enjoyable, productive day that moves life forward?

In this episode, Sharran shares his diagnostic tool for determining whether he had a perfect day and offers suggestions on how to make up for days when you don't get to do the things you had to do. He developed this perfect day scorecard composed of six specific items to ensure each day does not pass by with wasted opportunities. You don't have to do all six things at once, but incorporating some of them into your daily activities will dramatically improve your life. Why don't you give the perfect day scorecard a try?

“I've realized over the years that if I don't have a scorecard, if I don't have a diagnostic on what I'm doing on a day-to-day basis, then I have no way of seeing, thinking, or feeling as to how I did that day.”

The Cost of Success

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 04:00:00 -0400

What do you really want to achieve in life? Are you willing to pay the price to get it? Do you understand the cost of success?

Sometimes, you get frustrated when you fail to achieve your version of success. But maybe it's because you have yet to fully understand that success means giving something up to get what you want. That's how you keep the "karmic balance" at work.

In this episode, Sharran takes you behind the scenes of the three filters he uses to understand every single opportunity. Understanding these three things is the biggest difference between the rich and the rest, or those who are successful and those who are not.

Do you want to have anything in life? Then, make sure you fully understand that success has a cost, and it can be any of these things: Opportunity cost, capability cost, or unique ability cost.

“Success loves speed, and delay kills deals.”

- Test Your Email Deliverability - https://www.mail-tester.com/

Email marketing may seem old-fashioned in the current digital marketing landscape, but it’s still essential to communicating with your customers. Unlike social media channels, you have more control over your emails' messaging and scope of reach. However, sometimes your emails fail to reach your customers' inboxes and land elsewhere. How can you avoid that? How do you make the most out of your email marketing efforts?

In this episode, Sharran breaks down the seven lessons he learned from sending seven million emails. He wrote all the emails himself and analyzed the results, so he deeply understands what works and what doesn't.

Today's episode is not just informative but also tactical. If you can implement the strategies and tactics Sharran discusses, you will see a massive improvement in your email stats. So get ready to take notes.

“Everyone can write ChatGPT emails, and the more you see an ocean of mediocrity, the more your personal stuff will stand out.”

Concepts That Define Us

Have you ever thought about the way you use words? Why do you use a certain word to describe something? Do you give careful consideration to the words you use daily?

Concepts and words are often used interchangeably. Sometimes, the word comes first, and you have to search for a concept to go with the word. Other times, it's the other way around.

Sometimes, we use a word casually without clearly understanding what it means. But each word we use and the concepts that go with it gives a picture of how we view the world.

Today, Sharran shares thirteen concepts and their meanings. Once you understand what each word means and start defining the words you use, you will see the world differently because “The limits of our language are the limits of our world.”

“When we know the definition of the words that we're using, and we can share that definition with others to illuminate them, to give them insight into our thinking, it dramatically changes how we live, how we love, and how we feel.”

Regrets of Dying

- Regrets of the Dying by Bronnie Ware

There are many uncertainties in life, but one thing is for sure–someday, we're all going to die. Do you know what to expect when you're in the last days of your life? Can you say you've lived a full life, or would you have many regrets? The dying process is unique to each person. However, a few common things happen to almost everyone as they come to terms with their mortality.

In this episode, Sharran reads an article by Bronnie Ware titled Regrets of the Dying. The writer worked in palliative care. Her patients were those who had gone home to die. In the heartwarming article, Bronnie shared what she observed while caring for her patients during the last three to twelve weeks of their lives. She took note of the five common themes people felt as they were nearing the end of their existence.

As you listen to Sharran, may the words touch your heart and make you take a deep look inside yourself. Choose happiness. Don't wait until it's too late.

5 Pillar Social Strategy

Tue, 02 Jan 2024 04:00:00 -0400

Every brand should be building a social media presence. If you’re not in people’s social media feeds, they won’t know you or your products. Creating a social media presence can be overwhelming if you don’t have a framework or strategic approach. Which social media platform should you be? What type of content must you post? How often should you post? These are just some of the questions that come to mind when thinking about building a social media strategy.

In this episode, Sharran breaks down his five-pillar social media strategy so you can implement it immediately. This strategy is simple and will cost you no money. It was developed based on countless hours of research and testing, which Sharran has done for you, so you won't have to spend many hours experimenting on your own. If you can adapt this strategy to build your social media presence, you will win big time.

“The best content creators out there are in huge collab mode. They collaborate with each other, they like each other's stuff, they share each other's stuff, they support each other's work, and that allows them to have this upper echelon of content creation on their own that you and I don't have. And if we can fix that, even with our small set of cohorts, we win big time.”

These reasons may seem basic to you, but they are often the difference between gaining a new customer and losing an opportunity.

Influencers Are Not Financial Advisors

Tue, 04 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0400

In a world where influencers are dishing out words of wisdom, many social media users tend to accept the suggestions their favorite influencers share. But when it comes to money matters, do not believe everything you see and hear from influencers because they are not expert financial advisors. Instead, you must carefully consider where you're getting sound financial advice if you don't want to be disappointed.

In this episode, Sharran talks about why you should not blindly follow what your favorite influencers tell you, especially regarding money. After all, just because someone is good at something does not mean they are good at everything.

Influencers may be good at talking in front of the camera, but it doesn't mean they clearly understand how the world of investment works. So who should you turn to for financial advice? That's what Sharran has in store for you today.

If you are interested in achieving financial freedom where your passive income exceeds your expenses, this episode is for you.

Reporting First Approach

Tue, 07 Feb 2023 04:00:00 -0400

- Hire Quality Virtual Assistants from Assistantly

Do you know exactly how your business is doing? How do you measure the success of your business? For most companies, a dashboard is a necessary tool. That is so true. In fact, Sharran thinks that building a dashboard is probably even more important than building a business. In this episode, he talks about three things you must understand about a dashboard to appreciate the importance of the reporting first approach. When you report first, you see your entire business come to life. Having a dashboard allows you to see data from across your business in a way that’s easy to grasp. When you clearly understand how your business is doing, you can gather insights to help you create action plans to propel your business performance forward. But without a dashboard, it's like walking in the dark. So remember to build your dashboard first before doing anything else.

Do you like meeting new people? If you're a business person, you must be getting a lot of inbound pitches for discovery calls or requests from people who want to “pick your brain” or sell you stuff.

In today's episode, Sharran shares his simple framework to filter what to say YES to.

4 Words That Don't Sell

Tue, 20 Sep 2022 04:00:00 -0400

Do you consider yourself a good salesperson? What strategies do you use to make a sale? Selling is a skill that has to be taken seriously.

As someone who has sold a lot of stuff for a long time and gained insights from a lot of sales training, Sharran has developed an understanding of what makes people buy.

Today, Sharran will talk about 4 words that don't sell. They may get you a sale, but your clients may feel resentment when they realize they were manipulated. Sharran learned these 4 words from his early days at Goldman Sachs. Discover what these words mean when used in a sales setting and why investment banker Lloyd Blankfein forbids their use inside Goldman Sachs.

My Best Advice for You

- Business School Podcast Episode 1: How to Find a Mentor -

When someone says they have the best advice for you, you pay attention, right? You want to know what that is. So many people give this sage advice, “If I can do it, you can do it too.” Be cautious when you hear this because this is not entirely true. I’m not saying you can’t do it. But it’s not as simple as what people say.

There are sequences of events that built the momentum and created the perfect storm for people like Elon Musk, Ophrah Winfrey, Warren Buffet, and many other ultra-famous and successful people. Since no two people have the same set of circumstances, you can’t be like Elon Musk even if you wanted to. But there’s one thing that can help you stack the odds in your favor and win in your own way. It’s all about having a solid support system. So who’s in your corner?

In today’s episode, you get a snapshot of Sharran’s support system. Get to know the people in Sharran’s corner and how they set him up to win. If you want to build your support system, this episode is for you.

Sometimes You Need 3 Hammers

Tue, 15 Feb 2022 04:00:00 -0400

“If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.” This famous quote is attributed to 20th-century psychologist Abraham Maslow.

In this episode, Sharran talks about the practical application of this quote and presents the idea that sometimes one hammer is not enough. So if you've been trying to solve a problem and you're not getting anywhere, think again. Maybe you need three hammers.

What do you know about cryptocurrency (“crypto”)? Do you know how many cryptocurrencies there are and what they are worth? Should you even care? Crypto supporters regard Bitcoin (BTC) as the currency of the future. Some call it “digital gold” and think it’s more secure than traditional payment systems. Others believe cryptos and blockchain are too complicated, so they’d rather not have anything to do with it. Whatever you think, it’s still preferable if you have a basic understanding of the nature of cryptos.

In this week’s episode, Sharran walks us through a 23-minute crypto course he designed for his 10-year old son. It won’t hurt if you listen to it. After all, you don’t want to be left behind when the whole world embraces cryptos as the new currency.

Loaning Money to Friends

Tue, 07 Dec 2021 04:00:00 -0400

- Get the Money Multiplier System

Let's talk about money and friends. Should you lend money to friends? What if we flip the situation, and you're the one in need. Would you borrow money from friends? It is a tricky situation. There's no absolute rule saying whether you should or shouldn't. But let’s admit it, friendships have been broken because of unpaid debts. In this week's episode, Sharran shares his experience being on both sides of the situation and the framework he uses to consider whether to lend money to someone.

At one point in your life, you may be in this situation. So it's best to create your rules to help you decide. Also, you need to consider which is more important -- the relationship or the money?

Our 4-Step Process for Investing in Companies

Tue, 07 Sep 2021 04:00:00 -0400

The concept of investing directly in a company is not as commonly done compared to simply buying stocks. Finding private investment opportunities to make money is a great way to unlock additional income. There is more risk involved, but the opportunities allow you to gain above-market returns and influence the business direction. Investing in a company can be a fantastic way to build wealth. But before you do that, make sure you have a concrete process. Professional investors need playbooks to replicate their success and learn from their mistakes. If you don't already have your own process, here is Sharrans’s 4-step process for investing in a company. It's pretty simple, but it works!

How to Buy a Business with Zero Money Down

Tue, 31 Aug 2021 04:00:00 -0400

Would you rather buy an existing business than start one from scratch?. The advantages include established customers and ongoing cash flow. The downside is that most business owners want upfront payment before they hand over the keys.

Of course, you need to know how to negotiate or have someone represent you to close the deal. Just how exactly do you buy a business with no money down? Tune in to this episode to hear how Sharran made it happen for his client.

How to Pitch Your VC and Investor Friends

Tue, 27 Jul 2021 03:00:00 -0400

Raising money is essential for the success of your startup or small business. But many first-time entrepreneurs are not confident about finding investors in the early stages of their business development. A quick thought might be to approach friends and family for financial support. But combining your business life with your personal life can be tricky since you wouldn't want to hurt your relationship over money. So instead of asking your friends directly for cash, why not look at them as a resource for testing your business idea and finding investors. Ask them if they know of anyone who would like to invest in your business. If you have a solid proposition, they might consider writing you a check.

To give you a headstart, Sharran put together this quick 3-step guide to putting your pitch together and increase your chances of finding someone who will trust you with their money.

Most consumers now have access to a massive amount of knowledge about a brand's products and services. And consumer buying behavior is constantly evolving.

So you should not be ashamed to sell, especially if you're sure that your product is what people need.

In today's episode, Sharran talks about a different perspective of marketing summarized in the form of four questions. Tune in to find out how answering these questions can shift your thinking and help you sell more things to more people more often for more money.
