Join us as we welcome Joe Cherluck to Tycoons. Joe shared a ton of knowledge on how to grow your business and what worked for him in the manufacturing industry.

You cannot grow if you are working in the business; you have to hire the right people. Joe also talked about how business owners need a balance of one-the-job training and schooling. One of his early misconceptions was thinking he had enough knowledge from working in the business, but he didn’t.
