#006 Barry Hartman

Barry Hartman sits down with Blake to discuss life as an entrepreneur. Barry Hartman is the co-founder and CEO of 505-Junk, a highly successful junk removal company that has scaled to approximately $30 million in revenue. He's a proven entrepreneur in the waste management and junk removal industry, demonstrating expertise in building and scaling service-based businesses in what many might consider an unglamorous sector.What makes Barry's story compelling is his ability to transform a traditionally fragmented, local service industry into a significant revenue-generating operation. Junk removal requires strong operational execution, customer service, logistics management, and the ability to build systems that scale - all of which he's clearly mastered building the basis off of a strong culture and good people surrounding you. You can see how that helping other people is really what Barry is most passionate about and that's likely the reason he'll always find success in any new venture he takes on. - Blake Chancey
