Nas and Flex Moving and Delivery00:30

Nas is the founder of Flex Sun Moving and Delivery based in San Diego, California. He is 29 years old. The business generated $300,000 in revenue over the last 12 months with 62% profit margins. The goal is to expand to multiple locations generating $2 to $4 million per location within two to three years. Nas wants to "paint the map pink" with pink trucks.

The business began accidentally while Nas was a broke college athlete. A friend from Austin suggested posting an ad online to earn extra money. Nas waited 11 months due to fear before posting his first ad. He later attended the scaling workshop at Acquisition.com in 2025.

Growing the business matters because Nas's wife quit her six-figure job five days prior to bet on him. Long-term employees want stable work to support their families. Nas's mother immigrated from Morocco and worked extremely hard; her only dream is to own a house costing $250,000. Nas also wants to prove to himself and those who bet against him that he can succeed.
