Building Brands That Actually Mean Something, with Dan Fanti – Ways to Wealth EP125

Описание: In this episode of the Ways to Wealth Podcast, Charlie is joined by Dan Fanti!

Dan Fanti is a serial entrepreneur who started his first business in his early 20s with a vitamin chewing gum that expanded into more than 2,000 stores across Australia, including Woolworths and 7 Eleven. After running into capital constraints and learning some hard lessons about growth, he went on to build trampoline park business Uptown Bounce before launching Phantom Sport, a sportswear brand redefining golf apparel through experience and community.

In this conversation, Dan shares what he learned from scaling too fast, why capital discipline matters more than most founders realise, and how understanding your real why changes the way you build businesses. They also explore the rise of experiential brands, the importance of community in an increasingly digital world, and why athletes like Tiger Woods and Roger Federer are now building their own companies instead of partnering with Nike. The discussion also covers investing, the difference between productive assets and property, thoughts on Bitcoin, and what building meaningful brands looks like in an AI driven future.
