In this episode of the Failure Is Knowledge Podcast, we sit down with Larry Davis, the founder of Community Business Solutions, a former IT guy who shares how being a single dad raising three kids, going through a divorce, and fearing the leap into entrepreneurship shaped his journey.

He talks about working in IT, picking up a side job, and how losing his main job forced him to switch and rely on what he had already built.

He explains how fear stopped him from acting on an early product idea that could have propelled the company forward and how learning from experience, not books, changed the way he approaches business.

The conversation covers community, mentorship, and giving back, including how connecting with the right people helped him grow, how he now serves on boards to spread the word, and how failure became a teacher instead of an ending.

He also breaks down what Community Business Solutions does, including cyber security, compliance for medical, legal, and financial industries, remote IT support, and phone systems that help business owners separate work and personal life so they can focus on working on their business instead of in it.

This episode is a reminder that if you don’t fail, you haven’t really tried, and that the key is learning what to fix, what to improve, and when to keep going.
