Starting a business was the last thing on David Royce’s mind as a broke college student working a door-to-door sales side hustle. But while working in the unglamorous pest control industry, he discovered that ‘boring’ businesses were quietly producing more millionaires than passion-driven or tech ventures. That insight drove him to build and sell multiple pest control companies, ultimately selling them for over a billion dollars in exit valuations. In this episode, David shares why boring, unsexy businesses are the real path to wealth and how to launch, scale, and sell one profitably.

David Royce is a serial entrepreneur and founder best known for building and selling several companies in the pest control industry, most notably Aptive Environmental. Starting from scratch, he scaled the business to $500 million in annual revenue across 34 states and 5,000 cities before a successful exit in 2024. David is a member of YPO (Young Presidents’ Organization) and serves as a mentor to aspiring entrepreneurs.
