Brad James
Business Development, Entrepreneurship,
and Bees
Even though Brad doesn’t consider himself a serial entrepreneur, history would show otherwise. After choosing to not go to medical school in college, he pivoted his goals to helping individuals build their dreams and healing companies that needed a lift, instead. After helping start over 20 different businesses, he still manages multiple with many of them reaching annual 7 figure revenues and helping others do the same.
