Adam La Barr is a combat veteran, Amazon #1 best-selling author, and accomplished business consultant with a knack for turning challenges into opportunities. With 18 years of military experience and a proven track record in the corporate world, he has honed the art of building high-performing teams and scaling businesses sustainably. Adam has successfully navigated complex situations as a COO, steered startups to seven-figure sales, and implemented systems that allow businesses to thrive.
In real estate, Adam’s portfolio includes over 350 multifamily doors, investments in self-storage, and ownership of a memory care facility. Despite early hurdles, including a near-miss on his first deal, Adam’s resilience turned lessons into lasting success. Now, he leverages his unique blend of military discipline and entrepreneurial expertise to guide businesses with revenues of $250K to $1M, helping them scale without losing their identity—or their sense of humor.
When he’s not helping others achieve their goals, Adam spends time with his wife, Raquel, and their three children, proving that teamwork truly makes the dream work.
