Millionaire University From "Rental Car Rep" to 7-Figure Home Service Consulting Business | Phil Risher (MU Classic)
#745 What if scaling your business didn’t require a marketing degree — just the right systems and mindset? In this episode, host Brien Gearin chats with Phil Risher, founder of Phlash Consulting, about how he built a multi-million dollar consulting company from the ground up — without a traditional marketing background. Phil shares his unconventional journey from working at Enterprise Rent-A-Car to living in a school bus, to eventually helping home service businesses scale fast with a unique blend of consulting, content marketing, and strategic partnerships. You'll hear how he transitioned from solopreneur to building a high-performance team, productized his services, and structured his business to run without him in the day-to-day. If you're a service-based entrepreneur looking to grow and systematize your business, this episode is packed with practical strategies and inspiration!
