Robby Alonso, owner of The Franchise Tag, jumps on the podcast with Alex Quin to discuss his story from teacher to entrepreneur. He tells his story of working as a high school teacher to creating a successful brand that took off. Being left with the decision of choosing between his two loves: educating children or pursuing his brand. Not knowing how to properly run a business, he taught himself the keys of branding and marketing. But with ties in the music industry, Robby uses his brand and network to open new doors and create new connections.
