Pat Rigsby is a dad, husband, business coach, author, and entrepreneur who has built over 25 different businesses, including two Entrepreneur Franchise 500 award-winning franchises. He got his entrepreneurial start by opening a personal training business and health club. With no money to get these businesses off the ground, he was living with his family in the basement of a shared home. Before long, he started to have some real success (including moving out of the basement) and looked to expand his businesses. Over the next few years, his small personal training business grew to a network of successful businesses ranging from franchises and certification companies to info-marketing and real estate.
