In this episode of The Strategist, we sit down with Tej, property investor, entrepreneur, and host of the Tej Talks Podcast, to explore his journey from property investing to acquiring and scaling businesses.
Tej shares how his foundation in real estate gave him the systems, processes, and strategic thinking needed to succeed in mergers and acquisitions,particularly in acquiring a cleaning company and growing it into a thriving enterprise.
We unpack the mindset shift from managing assets to buying companies, the similarities between property and business acquisitions, and how investors can leverage their networks, branding, and operational discipline to diversify beyond property.
