What this episode covers
Brad sits down with Daniel Fessler, founder of Compound Concrete, to talk about how difficult work, challenging projects, and the obstacles that come with entrepreneurship can shape the way you lead, serve clients, and build a business. Daniel shares how a side project making concrete countertops grew organically into a specialty business, and why relationships, client education, problem solving, and knowing when to say no have shaped the company along the way. They also explore rammed earth, building a strong team, mentoring others, and learning to see the opportunity hidden inside the challenge.
