Episode description

David Snider (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sniderdavida/) is the Founder & CEO of Harness Wealth, a platform that pairs modern tax software with a curated marketplace of elite CPAs, financial advisors, and trust-and-estate professionals. After stints at Bain Capital and Compass—where he helped raise $300 M and reach a $1.8 B valuation—David set out to fix the fragmented tax experience for equity owners and growing businesses.

In this episode, Chris and David cover:

  1. Why most founders miss huge tax-planning opportunities—and how Harness closes the gap

  2. The tech stack that lets CPAs spend less time chasing documents and more time advising

  3. Harness’s marketplace model: matching clients to vetted specialists without big-firm markups

  4. Lessons from Bain & Compass on scaling trust-based advisory businesses
