WELCOME TO The Great Blue Shark with Chris Hopfer.

In this inaugural episode, Chris is interviewed by Guest Host Ed, and they take a dive into the "why" behind this new podcast.

Chris is a 15 year veteran in the Insurance and Financial Management spaces, and his passion is learning the stories of successful founders and the journeys that led them to where they are today.

He's also a huge believer in the fact that overcoming huge challenges equals great stories.

During this episode, Chris and Ed started off by chatting about how technology has changed the landscape in blue collar businesses and how talent is being evaluated on their technological prowess even in stereotypically low-tech industries.

He also revealed that on this show you'll be hearing from owners of blue collar companies - wether it's trucking, manufacturing, or beer distribution - no blue collar business is left behind on The Great Blue Shark.

Chris is mindful of the fact that most blue collar businesses operate within a community - and are often led by legacy members of families, which makes these stories so much more personal, and the work that's being done has a larger impact on a smaller group of individuals.

Chris is planning to start this journey by interviewing his clients, and giving them a platform to tell their story - so tune in for weekly episodes to discover the stories, challenges and tactical advice of successful Great Blue Sharks!!
