In this episode of Million Dollar Flip Flops, Rodric sits down with Mark Regan — co-founder of Poop Away, a residential and commercial pooper scooper service that turned a $5 Craigslist ad into a thriving national franchise.

Mark’s story is part hustle, part humor, and full of hard-earned lessons. What started as a wild idea between two furniture salesmen became a systemized business that now gives others the chance to find freedom through franchising.

Together, Rodric and Mark dig into:

• 💩 How a simple idea — “we’ll take the poop away” — became a six-figure business.
• 💡 The moment they invested in coaching and why it changed everything.
• ⚙️ How emotional detachment and outside perspective helped them scale.
• ❤️ Why success built on service creates deeper satisfaction than money ever could.
• 🚀 How franchising turned a small local business into a nationwide opportunity.

Mark also opens up about growing up in poverty, discovering the power of sales, and why he believes anyone can create freedom if they’re willing to work hard, stay humble, and take action — even if it starts with something as unglamorous as picking up after dogs.

Favorite Quote:

“Having a coach who’s emotionally detached from the business is worth its weight in gold. He’s the eye in the sky — he sees what we can’t.”
