- 0:57America. Bill. Welcome to The Action Catalyst.
- 1:00Bill Rancic: Oh, thank you for having me, quite an
- 1:02introduction.
- 1:03Adam Outland: Bill, you're joining us from Chicago today.
- 1:06You're from Chicago, your career seems to always keep you around
- 1:09Chicago or take you back to Chicag. For our listeners
- 1:12who've never been there, what's so special about Chicago? And
- 1:16why is the pizza better?
- 1:19Bill Rancic: Well, I'll answer the first part of the question
- 1:21first, and it's the people. You know, Chicago is a big city that
- 1:25gives you a hug when you come here, you know, the people just
- 1:29are real. They're hard working. And they're from here. It's
- 1:32generational. And it's like Boston, and a lot of these great
- 1:35cities where people take a lot of pride in their city. So the
- 1:39architecture is amazing. You know, the lakefront is
- 1:42incredible. But at the end of the day, it's about the people
- 1:44in the pizza just as the best. The deep dish pizza, no one
- 1:47makes it better than here in Chicago.
- 1:50Adam Outland: I want to talk about your first entrepreneurial
- 1:52venture. I mean, the very first, when did you catch the bug?
- 1:56Bill Rancic: Well, the first the first business I had was with my
- 1:59grandma, and I was 10. I was at my grandma's for the weekend, my
- 2:02mom and dad were heading out of town. And I woke up one morning
- 2:05and my grandmother is in the kitchen making breakfast. And
- 2:08you know, it's probably like a lot of entrepreneurs out there.
- 2:11I would always ask a million questions. You know, what goes
- 2:13here? Why are you doing that? How does that work. And my
- 2:16grandmother decided she was going to take me in the kitchen,
- 2:18and she was going to teach me how to cook. But I spent all day
- 2:21making pancakes with her in the kitchen. And then the next day,
- 2:24I woke up, and I raced into the kitchen, and I picked up the
- 2:27phone and I called all the old ladies who lived on my
- 2:29grandmother's block. And I invited them all to come over
- 2:31for a pancake breakfast. And they loved it. And then when
- 2:34they left, they all left $5 bills underneath their plate,
- 2:37and I said Oh my I'm onto something here. So then for the
- 2:39next five weeks, I went to my grandmother's every weekend, and
- 2:42I had this big shift restaurant, that my mom caught wind of what
- 2:45was going on and she shut the operation down, she claimed I
- 2:48was taking your sole Security money. So that business ended
- 2:51immediately. That was my first start to be honest with you. And
- 2:54then from there, I started buying and selling used cars
- 2:57when I was 14, there was an old publication, this is way before
- 3:01the Internet called the trading times. And I was using that to
- 3:04buy new cars and then resell them. And then I had the boat
- 3:07wash and wax business in college. And then when I was
- 3:10right out of college, I took a job briefly for about eight
- 3:13months. And I realized that I couldn't work for anyone else.
- 3:15And then I started a an Adelaide cigar subscription company that
- 3:20we send cigars to your home every month, we had over 10,000
- 3:23monthly subscribers getting these boxes sent to their home
- 3:26every single month, it took off, I started in a 400 square foot
- 3:29studio apartment. And then it quickly grew and grew. And it
- 3:32was, it was something.
- 3:34Adam Outland: Sounds like you internalized a lot of these
- 3:35important business principles very early on. I actually
- 3:39started a division of our company where we focus on
- 3:42providing one on one coaching to youth and I currently serve as
- 3:45president of our foundation, Kindness for Kids. And in that
- 3:49foundation, we actually it just reminds me that we actually work
- 3:52with young people in particular, the foundation sponsors,
- 3:55underserved youth, aging out foster youth, students that
- 3:59don't usually have mentorship and guidance in their life. And
- 4:03then we wrap coaching around them to help develop their
- 4:05skills, the exact kind of skills that I think it sounds like you
- 4:08practice that so many successful people practice early on in
- 4:11life. So you know, if you could walk us through some of the
- 4:14skills that you learned in those early days?
- 4:17Bill Rancic: Well, you know, for me, when I was growing up, the
- 4:21best lesson I learned from my parents was, it's okay to fail.
- 4:24It's okay to make mistakes, but it's never okay not to try, you
- 4:28know, with social media and the way the world has evolved.
- 4:31Everything has to be perfect. You know, and that's not how the
- 4:34real world works. And a lot of kids are afraid to try something
- 4:37because they're afraid they're gonna fail, you know, or they're
- 4:39afraid with their friends or their colleagues are gonna say,
- 4:42and they might be embarrassed. So, you know, entrepreneurship
- 4:45is really the birthplace of innovation. If you look at all
- 4:47these major companies that are out there today, they started in
- 4:51a garage or a studio apartment, you know, and they evolved into
- 4:54these massive corporations, you know, Apple, Amazon, I can go on
- 4:58and on. And we also you We are able to change the world through
- 5:01that innovation as well. And we have to keep Main Street alive.
- 5:04And I think we got to keep that spirit alive in America.
- 5:07Adam Outland: You were the winner of season one of The
- 5:09Apprentice, which maybe people don't remember, was an absolute
- 5:11phenomenon when it was on the air. What was it like to
- 5:15suddenly be in the public eye? And what are some of the habits
- 5:17and practices that set you apart from your peers and competitors?
- 5:21And ultimately helped you win?
- 5:23Bill Rancic: Yeah, it was huge. It's funny that I won the first
- 5:26season of The Apprentice 20 years ago, last month. So it's
- 5:29kind of ironic, and it changed my life. There is no question
- 5:32about it. You know, we had 25 million viewers every week
- 5:35watching, it was, you know, today, if the hit show gets 3
- 5:39million, that's considered a complete success. So, you know,
- 5:42that was the golden age of TV and in our generation, but it
- 5:46was remarkable. You know, it was just as if someone flipped the
- 5:49switch. And I was introduced to the world. And I would say, but
- 5:54I learned a lot of lessons, because we had, you know, really
- 5:56good competitors, we had, you know, there were 16 of us, great
- 5:59entrepreneurs, great business people, you know, Harvard, and
- 6:02Yale, and all these amazing, you know, business schools. And I
- 6:05think there were three things I learned that I implement every
- 6:07day. And one is you have to be agile, you have to be willing to
- 6:10adjust and adapt and react to what's happening around you. And
- 6:14we saw it during COVID, you know, those who were able to
- 6:17adjust and react stayed around those who didn't became extinct.
- 6:20And that is my belief, with or without them it, I think, you
- 6:25know, secondly, we have to learn to think like a conductor, you
- 6:28know, you have to check your ego at the door, and you've got to
- 6:31think of a conductor of an orchestra, that's hiring the
- 6:33best people. Don't try to play every instrument yourself. So
- 6:37you know, a lot of people that they think they know everything.
- 6:39And I don't believe that I think you got to get the good, you
- 6:43know, the best people you can around you. And I think you have
- 6:46to stop making excuses. I think, you know, one of the reasons
- 6:49people fail is because they point to their left, and they
- 6:51point to the right, and they blame everyone and everything
- 6:53around them. If you look at the people who are in that rare air,
- 6:56they point the finger at themselves, because at the end
- 6:58of their career, there's no one else to blame, but themselves.
- 7:01Adam Outland: Your first gig after winning was helping to
- 7:03manage the construction of the Trump International Hotel and
- 7:06Tower in Chicago. That must have been intimidating. Had you done
- 7:11any real estate before?
- 7:12Bill Rancic: Hmm. Well, I had done a little bit, but the
- 7:15biggest project I had done was a 34 unit building. So much, much
- 7:19different. But you know, I went into it with the right mindset.
- 7:22And I think it's kind of a Midwest mindset, I went in, and,
- 7:25uh, my goal wasn't to, you know, try to be the big boss, I went
- 7:29into trying to be the sponge. And I realized that I didn't
- 7:32know everything, and that I had to get good people around me.
- 7:35And that was it. And I wanted to learn everything I could from,
- 7:38from everyone, great architects and engineers and mechanical
- 7:42engineers. And that was kind of my goal. When I first got on, I
- 7:45took my time, I kind of sat back and I took it all in before I
- 7:49started to kind of get into my role.
- 7:51Adam Outland: We don't want to spend a lot of time talking
- 7:53about Trump, because there's a lot about him out there already
- 7:56on both sides. But is there anything about him that
- 7:58everybody's got wrong?
- 8:00Bill Rancic: You know, I will say he treated me exceptionally
- 8:04well treated me like one of his children. And ultimately, he
- 8:07wanted me to succeed. He wanted me to be as successful as I
- 8:11could. And I think that's what he wants. For most people. You
- 8:14know, I don't want to get into politics, or any of that, I get
- 8:17it, you know, the world we're living in is very divided, but I
- 8:20can just share with you. My personal first hand experience
- 8:24in the way he treated me was he far exceeded any expectation I
- 8:28had, and really took me under his wing. So it was a life
- 8:30changing experience that I will always remember and always
- 8:33cherish. And I look back on that experience of being on that
- 8:36show. And I met my wife through that experience I had my child
- 8:39like it was really was amazing. I've been able to do a bunch of
- 8:43TV shows as a result. So life is full of opportunities, and you
- 8:47have to seize opportunities. I was just with Howie Mandel the
- 8:49other day, and I'm going to give him a shout out. He had a great
- 8:52quote, he said, you know, nothing starts with no. And you
- 8:56know, if you always say no to opportunities, you're going to
- 8:58wind up with nothing, you know, I came home and I told my, my 11
- 9:01year old son that because it's amazing advice, you know, you
- 9:04got to be willing to take risks and go out there. And when I
- 9:06took that opportunity, this was the early days of reality
- 9:10television. 20 years ago, the TV show stations weren't filled
- 9:13with the reality TV that we had today. So, you know, it could
- 9:16have ruined me, you know, could have it could have been an
- 9:18absolute disaster, and I could have embarrassed myself. But you
- 9:21know, I knew that I wanted to take a risk and the upside, I
- 9:25think outweigh the downside.
- 9:27Adam Outland: But like you said, The Apprentice didn't scare you
- 9:29away from reality TV because you made your way into producing and
- 9:32starring in reality television alongside your wife, Giuliana.
- 9:36You'd already been in the public eye, but how did you cope with
- 9:38having your personal life in the spotlight instead of just your
- 9:41professional life?
- 9:42Bill Rancic: You know, we we made a kind of a promise to each
- 9:45other that if we were going to do what's called the Giuliana
- 9:47bills show and it ran for eight seasons on E. And we said we're
- 9:51going to use the show for good and naughty, you know, so many
- 9:54of these shows are poisonous, and it's just putting out the
- 9:57wrong thing. You know, and over the course of the eight seasons
- 10:00were able to tackle infertility, before anyone was talking about
- 10:04infertility, we're able to talk about Joe and his cancer battle
- 10:07with breast cancer, which raise so much awareness, all of our
- 10:10mission trips to Haiti and, and the different philanthropic
- 10:13things we did. So, you know, we really use the show as a
- 10:16positive platform, and it was a show you can watch with your
- 10:19kids. And that was something we were proud of. So that was kind
- 10:22of what we did. You know, we were the executive producers on
- 10:24the show, we controlled all the content, and our lives aren't
- 10:27filled with drama. Now, that's just not how we live. We're
- 10:30we're Midwest people, you know, normal. I'm a regular Chicago
- 10:34guy.
- 10:35Adam Outland: Well, continuing that long television career,
- 10:37you're now featured on The Mega Brands That Built America airing
- 10:40on the History Channel, which is a really entertaining look into
- 10:43the early innovations and some of the biggest businesses of our
- 10:45time. Do you have a favorite episode, or one that surprised
- 10:49you the most?
- 10:50Bill Rancic: Well, I'll tell you, I love the History Channel.
- 10:52I've always been a fan of the History Channel. In the early
- 10:54days, I used to get out binge watch Modern Marvels and all
- 10:57their amazing programming. And when this opportunity came
- 11:00along, I knew I wanted to do it took me all about 10 seconds to
- 11:03say, Where do I need to be? There's so many great episodes
- 11:05this season, the evolution of credit cards, you know, there
- 11:08was a gentleman who was out to dinner, and back in the early
- 11:11days, you had to pay cash, or you wrote a check. And this guy
- 11:14was out to dinner with clients, he forgot his checkbook, you
- 11:17didn't have enough cash on him. He was horribly embarrassed, he
- 11:20had to go to the men's room and call his wife and she had to
- 11:22bring the checkbook. And he left he said, I'm never gonna let
- 11:25that happen again. And through that embarrassing moment, he
- 11:27created Diners Club card. And now it's a $6 trillion industry
- 11:32in the credit card business. So you know, I love how, you know,
- 11:36innovation really comes from necessity. You know, Nike is
- 11:39another great one. I'm a huge fan of Nike. But you know, the
- 11:42co founder of Nike, along with Phil Knight was in his kitchen
- 11:45when his wife was making waffles. And that was how he
- 11:48came up with the soul of the Nike shoe from a wall flight, he
- 11:51made the first shoe on a waffle iron. So it's really
- 11:55educational. I watch it with my 11 year old son, you know, he
- 11:58loves it, he would watch it even if I wasn't on the show. It's a
- 12:01great way to give people the vitamin without them knowing
- 12:03they're taking the vitamin.
- 12:04Adam Outland: Are there any themes that you keep seeing show
- 12:06up again and again, between the businesses?
- 12:09Bill Rancic: Well, the one thing is everyone has failures, right?
- 12:12All these people have failed at something wrong way. And you
- 12:16know, we don't learn much from success, we learn a hell of a
- 12:18lot failure again, and that's my theme, like the young people
- 12:21coming up today have this absolute fear of failure, right?
- 12:25It's something that they have to overcome, otherwise, they're not
- 12:27going to grow, you're gonna really stunt your growth. And I
- 12:30look back on my career. And you know, I've made a lot of
- 12:33mistakes along the way. But I don't make them twice. That's a
- 12:35real failure. We can make them twice.
- 12:37Adam Outland: Bill, if you were making the show 100 years into
- 12:41the future. Is there a modern day brand or company you think
- 12:44would make the cut?
- 12:46Bill Rancic: Everything Elon Musk is doing? No question. The
- 12:49guy's changing the world. I mean, he what he's got going on
- 12:52the way his brain is wired, is her modern day, Einstein. Like,
- 12:56it's unbelievable. What he's going to do with these, you
- 12:58know, self driving taxis and view Oh, Tesla, even down to the
- 13:04chip that he's putting in use people's brains. I mean, there's
- 13:07a guy, he's a paraplegic, and he's able to play chess and all
- 13:10these games with this his mind, I mean, think about this, right?
- 13:13It is absolutely remarkable. He's the first guy to let re
- 13:17land a rocket. You know, NASA has been doing it for 55 years,
- 13:2060 years. And he comes in, and he's able to read real land a
- 13:24rocket. So I think anything he's doing will be on the show. He's
- 13:27wired differently. And where we see problems that, you know, are
- 13:31insurmountable, he comes up with solutions, you know, and that's
- 13:34what I always tell people that work for us, like, Don't come to
- 13:36me with problems coming up with solutions, because there's
- 13:39always going to be problems, no one's going to live a problem
- 13:41free life. So you better be good at solving problems. And that's,
- 13:44I think, the way his mind is wired, nothing is out of the
- 13:48question, would you have ever thought you're gonna put a brain
- 13:50ship in a human beings brain, I would have never thought that
- 13:54never in a million years. And it's, it's happening. So he's
- 13:57got a gift, you know, and he's been public about it, you know,
- 14:00he is on the spectrum and has Asperger's and it goes to show
- 14:04you that the beautiful thing about life is that we're all
- 14:07different. And we all have strengths and we all have
- 14:09weaknesses. And, you know, we're a lot of people may see that as
- 14:12a disability, he turns that into into a hell of a gift and
- 14:15element advantage, because, you know, he's not neurotypical.
- 14:18Adam Outland: Yeah, he's made it ijnto almost a superpower. Okay,
- 14:21let's talk about food. You mentioned earlier that you're
- 14:24mixing your love of food and business already at age 10. And
- 14:27today, you own a number of highly celebrated restaurants
- 14:30across the country. Tell us about your evolution into full
- 14:33on restaurant guy.
- 14:35Bill Rancic: You know, I realized early on that, that I
- 14:37love food and I loved cooking. But I also realized as an adult,
- 14:41that it's the worst possible business you can get into has
- 14:44the highest failure rate. You know, it's like investing in
- 14:48resources. You know, it's just like, not a great return, but my
- 14:51wife was born in Naples, Italy, and whenever her mom would come
- 14:55into town to visit we would have people lined up to come over for
- 14:58dinner at the door, to have her home cooking from Naples. And
- 15:02then one day Joanna said we should open up an Italian
- 15:04restaurant. And I'm thinking this is this is a way to burn
- 15:07money, like horrible idea, horrible idea. And we're out to
- 15:10dinner one night with a guy named Greg Olson, who used to be
- 15:13a Chicago bear. He's now a commentator for Fox. And Juliana
- 15:17and I are at dinner with him and his wife. And he says, Well,
- 15:19you're gonna open up an Italian restaurant, you should talk to
- 15:21my friend argit. We kind of coordinate each other for a year
- 15:24and a half or so. And then we opened up our first one, you
- 15:27know, 13 or 14 years ago, right here in Chicago. And we open up
- 15:31a second one and the third one, and now we have we have them
- 15:34spread throughout the country. And we're opening up more, we've
- 15:37got a lot in the pipeline.
- 15:38Adam Outland: What's your favorite meal? Doesn't have to
- 15:40be one of your restaurants.
- 15:41Bill Rancic: You know, I love a good cheeseburger. I love
- 15:43cheeseburger and fries. And I ran the New York Marathon. A
- 15:47couple years ago, when I finished I got a double
- 15:49cheeseburger, fries and a milkshake. And it was just like
- 15:52that was it. That was that was happening for me.
- 15:54Adam Outland: Can we do a quick lightning round?
- 15:56Bill Rancic: Yeah, hit me.
- 15:57Adam Outland: What's one thing you own that you should probably
- 16:00throw out?
- 16:02Bill Rancic: Oh my gosh, one thing I own that I should
- 16:03probably throw up a lot of old clothes, I got to donate a lot
- 16:07of these clothes. Because just they've been sitting there for
- 16:1010 years, and I haven't worn them. They probably don't fit
- 16:12anymore either after COVID picked up a few pounds during
- 16:15COVID. So it's harder to come off now that I'm in my 50s. But
- 16:18yeah, just stuff that I'll never wear again.
- 16:21Adam Outland: Who's the person you always wanted to meet, but
- 16:23never have.
- 16:24Bill Rancic: You know, I was always a huge fan of Frank
- 16:26Sinatra. And he's someone I just loved. And just just thought he
- 16:30was so cool. I loved him. I was fortunate enough, I met Neil
- 16:34Armstrong, about 15 years ago, I was at a event speaking in Kuala
- 16:38Lumpur, Malaysia, and he was also speaking. And that was
- 16:41someone on my list. I never thought in a million years, I
- 16:43would meet him and we had dinner together. It's just I'm a huge
- 16:45aviation fan. Unbelievable to be able to have dinner with him.
- 16:48Adam Outland: So you can settle the debate than firsthand about
- 16:52whether the moon landing was a hoax?
- 16:54Bill Rancic: Absolutely not. Absolutely not. He was so so
- 16:57amazing. Just a wonderful guy.
- 16:59Adam Outland: What's the one habit or practice that saves you
- 17:02the most time each day?
- 17:03Bill Rancic: I plan out my deck stay the night before. So I have
- 17:07a big legal pad guy. And I pick out what I'm going to wear the
- 17:10night before. So when I get up, I'm going it's ready to go. No
- 17:13thinking about it. That's it. I'm a big list guy and I love I
- 17:17get a real satisfaction from you know, from checking the items on
- 17:20the list.
- 17:21Adam Outland: Define what success means to you, and how
- 17:24you know when you've actually achieved it.
- 17:26Bill Rancic: Tough question. For entrepreneurs. It's it's your
- 17:29it's kind of a blessing and a curse. Because oftentimes, you
- 17:32have that never satisfied mindset, you know, and it's
- 17:35something that I'm I'm trying to improve upon. Right, I think,
- 17:39you know, when you climb the mountain, you got to stop and
- 17:42look what you just did, instead of trying and staring at the
- 17:45next peak that you have to climb. So for me, you know, I
- 17:48celebrate successes along the way. And it was something I
- 17:52learned from training for a marathon, when a competitive
- 17:54marathon runner starts the race, he breaks it down. And he says
- 17:58I'm going to get two mile five in this time, and I'm gonna get
- 18:00some mile 12 and 15. And he has little celebratory mile markers
- 18:05along the way. And that's kind of how I approach things in
- 18:09life, I look at the bigger picture. And that's in the back
- 18:12of my mind, but then I set little ones along the way and,
- 18:14and I take time to celebrate those little victories on the
- 18:17path to the larger one.
- 18:19Adam Outland: What's something significant you've changed your
- 18:21mind about recently?
- 18:24Bill Rancic: That's another great question. Wow, these are
- 18:26awesome. I think, you know, I think I've changed my mind a
- 18:30little bit on being your flexible life. And I think
- 18:33having a child makes you do that, you know, when I was in
- 18:37kind of growth mode and in business mode, you know, I was
- 18:41very regimented, and you know, kind of very precise, and I
- 18:45think having a child, you have to you have to kind of be a
- 18:49little more flexible, and you got to you got to slow the train
- 18:53down. And I think that's okay. In life, you know, you go
- 18:56through different seasons in life and you don't want to have
- 18:59any regrets. And for me, I've learned to kind of be okay with
- 19:04working less, and I don't need, you know, I think I know when
- 19:08enough is enough. And I think I always wanted more and more and
- 19:10more. And now I'm like, Okay, well, that doesn't happen.
- 19:13That's okay. You know, I've got I've got a plan. And I'm
- 19:17learning to surrender more, where I used to try to muscle it
- 19:19myself. And now I just kind of ended over to the big man. And I
- 19:23never grew up with money. And now that we have, you know, the
- 19:26cheat a little bit of success realize that Yeah, my mom was
- 19:28right. You know, money doesn't buy happiness. You know, my
- 19:31parents are both school teachers. So, you know, it was
- 19:34that was ingrained in my head and I didn't want to believe
- 19:37them. And they were right. You know, you got to, it's about the
- 19:39people that you surround yourself with in life. It's
- 19:41about the relationships and, you know, I think being a good
- 19:45steward with the gifts God gave me. You know, I think that's
- 19:47ultimately the mission in life. You know, you gotta you got to
- 19:51use the tools that you've been given and use them wisely.
- 19:53Adam Outland: Often leaders are asked to share the best advice
- 19:55they received. Can you share the best piece of advice that you
- 19:59willfully and totally ignored.
- 20:02Bill Rancic: Oh my god. Well, I've ignored a lot of advice,
- 20:04and certainly could have gotten in on deals early. You know, I
- 20:08won't say the names of the companies, but I passed out on
- 20:11and, you know, it would have been a massive windfall. But I,
- 20:14you know, I think I learned this, and I got this advice
- 20:17early on, but I didn't really realize how true it was until
- 20:20later in life, that there's always going to be those people
- 20:24around you who wish they had your drive, your ambition, your
- 20:27vision, but they don't, well, they try to pull you down. In
- 20:31order to build themselves up, you got to be very careful about
- 20:34the people that you come into contact with, because those
- 20:37people, they may be your friends, your family, but they
- 20:40don't really have your best interest in mind. And you have
- 20:43to be aware of that. And I read this article that it said, the
- 20:46majority of the people we come into contact with on a daily
- 20:48basis are negative, we're going to say you're never going to be
- 20:51able to avoid these people. But when you're aware of who they
- 20:53are and what their intentions are, you negate their power.
- 20:57Right? And that's something that now I've learned to do. And I've
- 21:00learned, sometimes you gotta fire friends and you gotta love
- 21:03people from afar. And even family members, you know, and
- 21:07you got to remove that toxic, you know, bind from life. It's
- 21:11just It's poison.
- 21:12Adam Outland: So what's next?
- 21:14Bill Rancic: Well, we've got restaurants now RPM, Italian
- 21:17seafood, steak and pizza reporting as we've got a Vegas,
- 21:20DC we've got five in Chicago, we've got one coming in West
- 21:24Palm Beach, hopefully Nashville soon. So we're growing that I
- 21:28just started filming a show called dollar bill and it's
- 21:31going to be airing in all your airports on rich TV, and it's a
- 21:34business talk show. And we just had Howie Mandel on. I had
- 21:39Dennis Quaid on we got a really great lineup, really trying to
- 21:43bring financial literacy to people. So I'm really excited
- 21:46about that. And then hopefully, we're gonna be doing a lot more
- 21:48than mega brands have built America. As I love doing that
- 21:50it's one of my favorite projects to do.
