"Boring" Businesses That Can Make You Rich in 2025
In this explosive Dropping Bombs episode, Brad Lea interviews David Royce, a serial entrepreneur who turned a door-to-door pest control gig into multiple companies worth hundreds of millions—culminating in a billion-dollar valuation.
David shares his journey from making $25K in a single summer to selling companies for $13M, $30M, $130M, and more, all without losing control or vision. He reveals why "boring" industries like pest control are goldmines and the exact playbook he used to scale across nine states using elite teams, culture, and systems. Whether you're launching your first business or prepping for a big exit, this episode is packed with raw, real-world strategies for spotting opportunity, scaling smart, and winning big.
