Some run eight-figure businesses and some run smaller ones. Today, though, we wanted to introduce an entrepreneur who is within the genesis of his business. &amp;nbsp; A lot of early entrepreneurs don\u2019t put the right systems in place right away. They don\u2019t lay the necessary foundations for building a strong business. So I thought it would be really helpful for all of you emerging entrepreneurs who have experienced this struggle to hear from someone who is just a few steps ahead of you. &amp;nbsp; Brad Houston is the owner of Guy\u2019s Sewer and Drain, a drain cleaning business in the Twin Cities\/Minneapolis\/St. Paul area. Today he is joining us to talk all about his journey to becoming an entrepreneur and the process he has gone through until now to grow his business. &amp;nbsp; In this episode, you will hear:  Brad\u2019s career history. What drove him to entrepreneurship. Why advocacy is so important to him. His vision for Guy\u2019s Sewer and Drain. How being successful as an entrepreneur allows you to make more impact. Brad\u2019s highest values in life and business.
