Summary
David welcomes fellow financial advisor Mark Rowlette to discuss what it really takes to build a successful business—from creating scalable systems and developing leadership to transitioning from salesperson to business owner. They also explore the value of mentorship, building a company that can thrive without its founder, and why long-term success is about serving more people, not simply making more money. This is the first half of a 2-part conversation; As David was traveling for industry conferences and educational events, we're featuring two episodes this week instead of our usual four.
