Brian is the President of Austin's Couch Potatoes in TX. He grew the company from selling broken couches out of his garage to opening his 4th location.

Top 3 Value Bombs:

1. We've got to evolve to be like any other industry. We need someone on our team who truly loves people and has the mind of a strategist.

2. Focus on three things: Loving people, bringing comfort, and practicing fair trade.

3. You need to set yourself apart from the competition — something that will keep you untouchable.
