From a farm kid in New Holland, South Dakota, to a multi-business owner making bold moves across the country, Robbie Veurink’s story is all about grit, growth, and getting your hands dirty—literally. In this episode, Robbie shares his journey from working for the City of Sioux Falls to founding three successful businesses. He opens up about knocking on doors to get his first clients, launching a construction manufacturing facility during COVID, and even battling for his life during a life-threatening illness. This conversation is packed with real talk, inspiration, and insight into what it takes to balance work you love with people you enjoy being around.

What You'll Learn:

  • How Robbie transitioned from government work to launching his own engineering firm.

  • The grind of building trust and a client base from scratch.

  • How he mixes office strategy with hands-on, in-the-field labor.

  • The inside story of starting Black Tie Components, a high-tech truss and wall panel plant.

  • Lessons from surviving a near-death health crisis and how it reshaped his business and life philosophy.
