Running a family business is hard — keeping it thriving for over 40 years is even harder.

In this episode of Pivot to Profit, CFO Pam Jordan sits down with Julie Rotuno, second-generation CEO of Mid-Atlantic Packaging, to unpack what it really takes to modernize, scale, and lead a multi-generational business without losing its soul.

Julie shares how she went from painting her parents’ office as a teen to becoming CEO of their multi-million-dollar company — and how she's redefining what legacy leadership really looks like.

You’ll learn:

• How to balance tradition and transformation in a family-run business

• What it takes to step into succession with confidence and clarity

• The strategies Julie used to rebuild operations and acquire a company during the pandemic

• Why focusing on profit, not just sales, drives long-term growth
