Dave Maestas joins Camden and Otis to discuss marketing, leadership, and building a team.  Do you need a Team Sergeant in your business?  How does PACE planning improve your team's effectiveness?  And does having a "plan for failure" hurt your odds of success?  Dave, Otis, and Cam dive into all this and much more on this great episode!

More About Dave:
David Maestas, a distinguished retired Special Forces "Green Beret" and Airborne Ranger, has led an extraordinary life marked by service, resilience, and entrepreneurship. With 20 years in the US Army and nearly four years of combat experience in Iraq and Afghanistan, Maestas's military career is nothing short of heroic. Growing up in Vermont, his childhood was spent adventuring in the woods, a stark contrast to the adventure and battlegrounds that later defined much of his adult life.

After retiring in 2014, Maestas embarked on a new journey as an entrepreneur. Confronted by the high costs of advertising, he dedicated himself to mastering marketing. His efforts culminated in the creation of DiscoverMaestro.com, a thriving media and marketing agency. Under his leadership, Maestas has developed a network of directory websites for military bases, cities, and counties, amassing over 25 million views in 2023 alone. Among his ventures, AmericanVeteranBusiness.com highlighting Veteran business owners stands out, showcasing cutting-edge technologies and a proprietary social media platform. 

Dave has continued volunteerism by serving for 4 years as the Director of the Northwest Region of the US Army Ranger Association covering Montana to Alaska.  Over the past seven years, he has served as the Vice President of the Tacoma Events Commission, producing large-scale events for the people of Washington State. Finally, he is an ongoing volunteer with the National Alliance to End Veteran Suicide.

Maestas's influence extends far beyond his business accomplishments. With an audience of 300,000 across social media groups and pages, he has provided free marketing consultations to over 1,000 entrepreneurs, many of whom are veterans like himself. Through these initiatives, he aims to ease the entrepreneurial journey for others, ensuring they can thrive without the burdens of excessive time and financial investment.

David Maestas's story is one of transformation and generosity. From a boy playing in the Vermont woods to a decorated combat veteran and a successful entrepreneur, he has dedicated his life to service, both on the battlefield and in the business world. His legacy is a testament to the power of resilience, innovation, and the unwavering commitment to support and uplift others.
