Meet Russell Shepard. Former NFL wide receiver who's now running a porta-potty business.
Year 2 he made $1M? (more than ever in the NFL)
It started when he played for the Giants. He noticed the city filled with trash at night. By morning? All gone. He knew someone was making bank on all that waste.
So with his NFL earnings, Russell bought:
- A vacuum truck with a 2,000-gallon tank
- 125 portable toilets
- 50 hand wash stations
- 20 holding tanks
- Some nearby land
His first few months of recurring revenue:
- Month 1-2: $6k
- Month 2-3: $12k
- Month 3-4: $18k
By year 2 they'd hit $1M in revenue. Now multi-millions.
How it grew so fast? reviews and referrals.
His company Shep Boys manages waste from construction sites to disaster zones. Simple model, recurring revenue, commercial contracts.
I will say - I've never been so close to throwing up when visiting a small business before.
But Russell doesn't care what it smells like. He cares what it pays.

And all because Les didn’t let him throw a pass

I have it on good authority that Shepard was TERRIBLE in practice when asked to throw a football.
"He makes Jordan Jefferson look like Dan Marino." was the description I was told.
Seems like it worked out for Shepard either way. Glad to see him doing well.

There is a lot of money in that, and they can be cleaned rather quickly

There's always good money there because 99.9% of folks will pay gobs of money to not smell shite all day.

That’s a good business. I met the guy who has the contract for Texas ren fest and he makes bank.

Again?

He was phenomenal in high school and a 5-star recruit.
His football career didn’t pan out like everyone expected, but he still managed to spend several years in the NFL. Then built a business from the ground up. He turned an idea in his head into generating millions in revenue.
Some might still call him a bust, but he’s lived one hell of a life full of accomplishments, and he’s only 35.

Providing a service in a steady industry.
Whoever said “the only certain things in life are death and taxes” forgot about one other thing.

Ive seen his pump truck driving around IAH a few times.

Codie is an ignorant slut. His eventual take home from $1 million in revenue wouldn’t have been more than what he was making in the NFL.

Nice to see a NFL player that wisely invested his earnings into a sustainable business model rather than blow it and go broke
Props to him

We're going to get him really involved in the O next Saturday. May try him at QB some, run the wildcat and let him air out a few. He was a HS QB after all

You can make a ton of money doing the things that others either can't do, don't want to do, or think they are too good to do.
The true irony of most of society looking down on sanitation and waste disposal industry is that those two industries are the core foundation that allows civilization to happen.
Without them, pestilence would destroy everything. Famine would be rampart because of contaminated food stores due to rodents.
There's a reason that they win every labor and contract dispute.

For one year? Possibly.
He's no longer splitting his paycheck with numerous states and agents.

All Russell Shep had to do was steal the necked pics of JJ9 and Les and he would've led us to the promise land.
