Episode Description
Welcome to the Freedom Point Real Estate podcast! Today, Drew McWilliams is back and joined by guest Brad Wolfe to discuss successfully aligning multiple businesses for passive income and exponential growth.
Brad started Sourced Bookkeeping with the goal of providing small businesses with a place to turn when they feel stuck or stressed or unsure or frustrated or annoyed. And after a year of working with Home Instead owners all over the country, he and his wife purchased their local Home Instead in Columbia, SC. From co-founding his first small business at the age of 21, to running one of the largest in-home-care companies in the U.S. and years of consulting with Fortune 500 organizations, Brad's love of the areas of business that so many others avoid is what led him to founding Sourced and buying a Home Instead. Brad values his faith in Jesus, his wife and three kids, fitness challenges like Spartan Races, and Michigan sports.
