The Story Behind Our Name.
We are committed to finding solutions and helping our clients grow like in a “Bull Market.” Plus, we have some fun connections to our namesake.
Justin and his wife were cattle farmers (for a brief and amazing time), managing a herd of 50 cows, including a bull!
The team is based around Durham, NC, nicknamed “The Bull City”
Derrick was a professional baseball player, including a stint playing for the Royals AA affiliate, the Wichita “Wranglers”
Dr. Joe likes to say, “let’s take the bull out of expensive, ineffective benefits,” so that always brings a smile
Justin’s YGuides nickname is “Running Bull”
With all of these connections, the name just stuck!
