Brad Smith - Episode 140

“When I don’t listen and when I don’t take advice, is usually when we fail in our business”

Brad Smith started selling garden benches when he was 15 years old. A life-changing car accident taught him one of his greatest life and business lessons.

Brad and his wife are business partners and also homeschool their kids. They are a powerful couple, who are complete opposites in many aspects, and that’s why they operate so well together.

A serial entrepreneur and seasoned coach with hands-on experience in launching, growing, and successfully building several companies.

Recognising that the digital landscape can be daunting, Brad has coached over 5,000+ business owners & nonprofits on how to achieve online success.
