The Entrepreneur Next Door 🏡
My name is Zev Asch; welcome to The Entrepreneur Next Door Podcast. I've spent my entire career in what I call "the trenches of small business and entrepreneurship." I spent three decades as a successful corporate marketing executive in small and family-owned businesses, an academic career as a Graduate Marketing Professor and director of Entrepreneurship and leadership at Touro University Graduate School of Business, and over a decade as a business transformation coach.
As an avid podcast listener, I've always craved one that features unknown, grounded non-celebrities and entrepreneurs who can be my next-door neighbors.
Join me for intimate, unfiltered conversations with everyday people who took a leap into entrepreneurship and openly share their journey from failure to success. I spend hours preparing for each interview and asking intimate and challenging questions; one insight can make a profound difference in your business or life.
Finally, I promise that my podcast will never be used as a platform for me or my guests to self-promote. I strictly prohibit it and ensure each guest understands before being featured on my show.
My goal is to ensure that every episode delivers at least one insight that can help you improve your business or one aspect of your personal life.
Listen, subscribe, and share this channel with my thanks.

The Entrepreneur Next Door 🏡
[73] The entrepreneur on a mission to disrupt a broken medical model.
Doctors experience burnout regularly because they must work in ways they know can be improved. The business model of medicine has adulterated the relationship between the physician and the patient. Decisions are made about what solutions to offer you, not because it's best for you or the least disruptive in your life. It's because that's how doctors make a living, and that's how the organization they work for makes a living.
Russ Allen (yes, he fused his first and last name) has been an entrepreneur since he was 12.
While in college, he chose to share a room with two quadriplegic college students, an experience that changed his perspective on life. He quit college and started a food bank that became a national model.
RussAllen's multiple entrepreneurial journeys include transforming a cleaning company into a multi-million dollar business and other small tech and software businesses he started and grew.
It was Russ' obesity journey that led him to focus on wellness.
RussAllen teams up with NFL Hall of Famers to form the NFL Alumni Tackle Obesity group to help former players improve their lives. It later morphs into a national business, tackleobesity.com, that boosts weight reduction odds by pairing clients with professional coaches.
Russ Allen dedicates his career to improving our broken, bureaucratic, inefficient medical model. He's investing and opening wellness centers that offer proven non-invasive medical solutions to improve patient outcomes and lives.
