In The Thick of It

In this episode of In the Thick of It, host Scott speaks with Drew Murr, co-founder of Banjax Solutions. Drew shares his unique entrepreneurial journey, from growing up in a small Texas town and playing high school football, to dropping out of Texas A&M and dabbling in real estate, to serving in the Army Reserves, and working in the oil and gas industry. He founded his first company providing data analysis services to oil and gas firms, before pivoting to develop a text messaging application for law firms called Client Connect. Drew then partnered with law firm Dudley DeBosier to acquire Client Connect and launch Banjaxed Solutions, providing communications and data migration services for law firms using Salesforce.

Throughout his winding career path, Drew exemplifies the entrepreneurial mindset of constantly learning, moving fast, and finding creative solutions. He offers advice on partnerships, hiring talented teams, and learning to effectively communicate with stakeholders.

About Drew:
Drew’s life has been a road-trip less traveled. Looking for challenges, he left college, went into real estate, then joined the Army, and from there went into oil and gas. He didn’t want to be away from his wife and kids for long stretches, he taught himself to code while working in the field. After creating a novel rig sensor data analytics program, he built a custom B2B SaaS app called Client Connect. This is where he met the team that would later form Banjaxed Solutions. When not leading innovative Software-and-a-Service solutions within the Salesforce ecosystem, Drew spends time with his family, reads, listens to podcasts voraciously, and wakes up early in the mornings to exercise and think. He explains, “I come to work every day for our employees and clients, the employees of our clients, and the clients of our clients. I love that we are a force multiplier for the economy, serving individuals in every aspect of society”.

Throughout his diverse career, Drew has exemplified perseverance and a willingness to pivot into new industries and opportunities.
