Episode Overview
In this episode, our hosts Mike Nelson and Derek Foster interview Randy Rowe from Farrell Brothers Plumbing & Heating! Randy makes it clear for us that running a franchise (or two) can absolutely be in the cards for anyone who’s willing to put the work in, stay committed, embrace challenges, lead effectively, learn continuously, adapt to change, and stay focused on long-term goals—even when the path isn’t always easy or obvious.
