Dom Iacovone broke it down in our conversation. We turned every framework, formula, and strategy from the episode into one free PDF → https://openresidency.com/dom-iacovone-playbook

In this episode of Open Residency, we sit down with Dom Iacovone, the American CEO of The Quality Group — the $1.7B holding company behind Raw Nutrition, Bum Energy, and a portfolio of brands including Cadence, 3D, Revive, and his newest launch, Onside. Dom breaks down how he went from "running and gunning" as a founder to operating at an entirely different level after the acquisition, and the systems that let him run 15+ companies at once.

We also go deep on building a C-suite you can actually delegate to, the unglamorous truth about selling a company, and the full story behind Onside — the men's care brand with Jayson Tatum that landed full Target end caps. All signal, no fluff. Enjoy!
