The operator behind the advice

The story so far

I teach the way I had to learn: choose a real problem, try a practical solution, and keep what works

“I didn't come from money, connections, or a degree. I came from necessity and a refusal to stay stuck”

Build
From Iowa to Real Advisors
I grew up in small-town Iowa without money or connections. Building an engine and transmission business taught me systems and selling. Real Advisors later earned four Inc. 5000 appearances, reaching #80
Rebuild
2020
When COVID shut down my live events business, I faced more than $1 million in debt. I chose to rebuild. That experience still shapes how I think about risk, resilience, and useful work
Teach
AI For Business & Revven
Today, AI For Business brings together a community of 150,000+ people. I also built Revven, a software platform with 3,000+ users, without writing code. I share the practical lessons so you can start applying them to your own business

What it’s like to learn with me

People can teach how, but they can't teach heart.

Your intelligence educates on where to find, how to execute, provide human interaction. No APP can replace YOU, Brian.

brian has given us all what I call the 'Brian Bug'. Im staying up late at night, pop out of bed again at 6 AM, just building apps and sites. I haven't been this passionate in awhile.
