Lose a $20M Deal and Bounce Back Fast | Steve Ramona

Bounce Back Fast

The Right Room is a business and leadership podcast where founders and entrepreneurs share real stories, profit strategies, and practical lessons for building successful companies.

In this episode of The Right Room, Jane Parmel and Celeste DeCamps speak with Steve Ramona, host of Doing Business with a Servant’s Heart and relationship-driven business builder. Steve shares the pivotal moment that challenged his business, the strategic shift that helped him move forward, and the key lessons other entrepreneurs can apply when momentum gets interrupted.

After spending 10 months working on a $20 million project, Steve and his partner discovered critical pieces were missing and had to walk away from the deal. Instead of staying stuck in the loss, Steve leaned into a powerful lesson from one of his mentors: be human for 24 hours, then get back in motion.

This episode is a masterclass in resilience, networking, and building what Steve calls your quality net worth. From the power of following up to the value of serving before selling, Steve shares how relationships, consistent growth, and a strong network can help you recover faster and create new opportunities when things do not go as planned.

What You’ll Learn:

✅ How Steve handled the loss of a $20 million deal
✅ Why giving yourself 24 hours to feel the loss matters
✅ The difference between your network and your quality net worth
✅ How to build momentum again after disappointment
✅ Why serving before selling creates stronger opportunities
✅ A practical networking framework: Ask, Shut Up, Listen, Ask
✅ How to turn your intro into a story instead of a pitch
✅ Why getting 1% better every day compounds over time

Room Service:

In the next 48 hours, do one of these two things:
Reach out to someone in your network and ask how you can help them
Rewrite your elevator pitch as a short story that highlights the problem you solve
Then use it the next time you are in a room, on Zoom, or meeting someone new.
