In this powerful episode, Rob Brown welcomes Adam Koós, founder of Libertas Wealth Management, a nationally recognized advisor and a coach to advisors, who has engineered a path to massive success. Adam shares how he doubled AUM and revenue in just two years by embracing a bold, even controversial idea: “We’re a marketing firm that happens to do financial planning.” But don’t misunderstand, it’s not about hype. It’s about systems, trust, and showing up with excellence.
He unpacks the client-first onboarding, scalable growth strategies, and mindset shifts that help advisors build with joy, scale with integrity, and serve at the highest level. If you want your firm to run like a well-oiled machine that still feels deeply human, this episode will light the path.
