    Jun 25 2025
    What does it take to build five companies, buy your dad’s business for his retirement, and still make it home for dinner?

    In this episode, I sit down with Christian Brindle, an entrepreneur who started in the insurance game at 21 and now runs a multi-business operation that spans Medicare, consulting, lead gen, and agent training.

    Christian’s story is part family legacy, part business blueprint. He’s built real infrastructure that allows him to grow and unplug, something most founders talk about but rarely pull off. We dive into how he did it, and what it takes to build something that doesn’t burn you out.

    We talk about:
    🔥 How Christian scaled from a one-man shop to an insurance empire
    🔥 Why infrastructure, not hustle is the key to sustainable growth
    🔥 How AI is reshaping the insurance and consulting space
    🔥 What he learned buying out his dad’s agency and helping him retire
    🔥 Why time blocking and boundaries matter more than ever

    This episode is for anyone building a business while trying to protect their peace. Whether you're deep in entrepreneurship, running a family business, or trying to figure out how to grow without losing yourself, this one’s worth the listen.

    In this episode of Deeper Than Dough, Bennett Maxwell sits down with Brad Davis, the founder of Roxberry, a thriving smoothie and acai bowl franchise that has quickly become a go-to for health-conscious consumers. With over 20 locations and plans for expansion, Roxberry offers a unique perspective on building a successful business from the ground up.

    Brad shares his journey from co-founding Zuka Juice and selling it to Jamba, to launching Roxberry in 2008, and how the brand has grown over the years. He dives into the challenges of finding the right location, building a simple yet scalable business model, and navigating the ups and downs of franchising. We also discuss the importance of quality ingredients, the rise of health-conscious eating, and how Roxberry’s commitment to innovation keeps the brand ahead of the competition.

    Whether you’re a potential franchisee or an entrepreneur looking to grow your business, Brad’s insights offer invaluable lessons. He reveals how he’s helped franchisees achieve success with the right systems, mindset, and approach to community building.

    May 14 2025
    What does it take to build a business that actually makes kids excited to get a haircut? And more importantly, why does that matter if you're in franchising?

    In this episode, I sit down with Neal Courtney, CEO of Cookie Cutters Haircuts for Kids, and a guy who’s spent 25 years navigating the franchise world from the ground up. Neal went from franchisee to CEO, and now leads a national brand built on making haircut day stress-free, fun, and believe it or not, something families actually look forward to.

    We talk about:
    🔥 How Cookie Cutters became a needs-based business that’s stood the test of time
    🔥 What really makes a franchise location successful (hint: it’s not just the product)
    🔥 The biggest staffing challenges post-COVID—and how franchisees can prepare
    🔥 The kind of marketing support franchisees actually get
    🔥 And the one non-negotiable trait Neal looks for in a franchise partner

    This episode is packed with real talk around what it takes to run a business that’s both profitable and meaningful. If you're exploring franchising, service-based businesses, or just want to build something that gives back, this one's worth the listen.
