Sinan Kanatsiz has spent three decades building businesses, relationships and communities — but his approach starts with something surprisingly simple: connect with the person before you ever think about the transaction.
In this episode of The San Clemente Podcast, Sinan joins Jeff Moore and Brian de la Puente to talk about building KCOMM from the ground up, knocking on doors for his first clients, developing a relationship with Palmer Luckey, why confidence and listening matter, and why supporting what matters to someone is one of the best ways to build real relationships. He also gets into the future of North Beach, his connection to San Clemente, mental and physical health, his relationship with alcohol, opening The Nice Guy in Orange County, an unexpected move into bare-knuckle boxing, and the evolution of IMA and IMPACT.
Underneath all of it is a conversation about staying open to opportunity, investing in people, taking care of yourself and recognizing that some of the biggest things in life rarely happen according to plan.
