Both Mel and Rod have not only built successful national and international practices, they have done it in ways that many might consider maverick or even bordering on heresy. One has done it from his RV traveling North America and the other from exotic places around the globe. The important thing is that they pursued their vision of success while running profitable practices.

But it is less about their travels and more about the way to take advantage of today’s opportunities to position and grow your practice based on the new rules of the road. Mel and Rod are the co-creators of Practice Builder Academy, a one-of-a-kind mentoring and training program meant to put their specific PROVEN tools, tactics and strategies to work to build people’s practices around the world.

He is regularly sought out for valuation and consulting engagements in family limited partnership, co-tenant interest, and operating business matters. More recently, he is the author of the #1 bestseller, The Entrepreneur's Solution.

Rod Burkert, CPA, CVA, ABV - Rod is the founder of Burkert Valuation Advisors. He’s reinvented his practice three times after going solo in July 2000.
