Our Guest: Terrell Turner, CPA

Scott gets a one-on-one with the content master, Terrel Turner.

This episode ain’t just for the content conscious out there but also for those who’re planning to start scaling their businesses. Terrell doesn’t shy away from giving out tips and how you can focus on your role to make sure your business drives the way you need it.
