Today on the show, I’m joined by fellow Marine and Veterans in Residence Alumni, Harrison Floyd, Founder of Commonwealth Holdings, a consulting firm that helps veteran-owned small businesses and other under-represented groups, increase their footprint in the international marketplace and digital currency. I thought it would be a good idea to get Harrison on to not only talk about Commonwealth Holdings and his military transition into entrepreneurship but also answer some of his questions around marketing and branding, in particular, where he should focus the brunt of his efforts to drive revenue.
