What does it really take to walk away from the security of a steady career and step into the unknown world of entrepreneurship? In this episode of Behind Their Success, I sit down with David Sauers, co-founder and CEO of Royal Restrooms, to unpack his journey from local banker to national franchise builder. David shares how one frustrating porta-potty experience with his daughters sparked the idea for a business that would disrupt an entire industry. We dive into the realities of leaving behind a safe job, the mindset shifts every small business owner must face, and how personal development becomes just as important as business growth. Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur or already running a business, David’s story is packed with lessons on resilience, family balance, and turning obstacles into opportunities. We dive deep into: -The origin story of Royal Restrooms and how frustration turned into innovation. -What it really takes to leave behind the comfort of a paycheck to become a small business owner. -Why failure isn’t the end—it’s part of the process of growth and personal development. -The sacrifices, lessons, and mindset shifts required to build a company that lasts. -Balancing family, business, and the constant challenges of entrepreneurship. David’s journey is a perfect reminder that success often comes from being willing to take one more step when most people would quit. 👉 Where to connect with David: Website: royalrestrooms.com LinkedIn: Search David Sauers Follow Royal Restrooms on all major social platforms If you’re a small business owner or entrepreneur tired of overpaying taxes, this is for you.
