Free Agent Underground Show - "David Garland's journey to successful Free Agency"
In this show I (Kevin) interviewed David Garland of "The Rise To The Top." I had him take us from his humble beginnings during college and a multitude of jobs…to realizing he was 'unemployable' and needed and wanted to be self-employed…to his first attempts at different business failures and successes…to his ultimate discovery of where his passion met a viable opportunity.
This is a real story of a guy who started at zero and made it. No theory…only prescriptive info here. And don't miss what he has to say about the necessity to know your passion and stick to it…and not get sidelined by merely 'chasing money.'
In case you missed it Justin Lukasavige and I interviewed David recently in a show about how he leveraged his local city of St. Louis to effectively grow his business. You can get that here: "Become Known Locally"
David has a big audience for his "The Rise To The Top" web show for entrepreneurs which he touts as The #1 Non-Boring Resource For Building Your Business. I'm a subscriber and fan myself and encourage you to visit his website and subscribe www.therisetothetop.com. His interviews with the worlds top entrepreneurs is packed with killer info. It's great guidance to inform and motivate you to then join us at Free Agent Academy to take action and let us walk with you in making your free agent dreams a reality.
*Also…David's new book, "Smarter, Faster, Cheaper" will hit bookstores in December and is a culmination of almost 200 interviews with the best of the best in business today…and the common patterns of marketing he witnessed. You can pre-order here: www.smarterfastercheaper.com
Thanks AGAIN for having me on Kevin. It was a blast!

Wow, Kevin, Thanks for doing this. Find the passion and using j-o-b "failures" as apprenticeships were two superb ideas that I learned here. Great stuff. Thanks.

It's nice to not be the only unemployable guy around!
