Dave Cousins and Michael Drake: How to Launch Your Own Credit Repair Business

Dave Cousins is an automation strategist and entrepreneur known for helping business owners scale with systems instead of burnout. After leaving the Navy, he discovered that entrepreneurship came with no roadmap—just uncertainty, setbacks, and the realization that hard work alone couldn't build a sustainable business.

His breakthrough came when he shifted from doing everything manually to building automated, scalable processes. Since then, he has developed proven frameworks that have helped multiple entrepreneurs cross the $1M mark—systems shaped by real experience, constant refinement, and results, not theory.

Michael Drake — known online as "Mr. Drake Visions" — is the co-founder of The Credit Team and the creator behind the Credit CEO channel, where he breaks down financial traps, bad advice, and real-world credit strategies in a way people can finally understand.
