Phil is an extra special guest since he hails from my hometown in Franklin, North Carolina, and let me tell you, he is quite the entrepreneur. Phil is the owner of 13 businesses, one of which is www.drakesoftware.com. He was learning how to programming computers before programming was cool. (Talk about being innovative!) Phil will share how he went from being a teacher, to working in his father’s accounting business, to where he is today. He’ll discuss the ups and downs and life lessons he learned along the way. Join us for some sound advice on today’s episode!
Keep on Innovating!
