If you are looking to expand your business, start a side hustle or be your own boss, Zachary Green wants you to think of Sesame Street and keep it simple: have a good quality product, solve a problem, and have a way to distribute it and market it to the masses.
 
Zach is the co-founder of Warrior Performance Framework, author of “Warrior Entrepreneur,” and will be the keynote speaker of our May 17 Small Business Week seminar on how to start or grow your business. He’ll share his story of building a multi-million-dollar business out of the trunk of his car, how the lessons he learned in the Marine Corps helped shape his success, and how he is mentoring the next generation of entrepreneurs. 
 
The event is not just for people who want to start their own business – it’s also for those who are looking to take their enterprise to the next level. After Zach’s keynote presentation, he’ll moderate a panel of local business owners and support agency representatives, who will talk about their experiences building their businesses.

We also sat down with Zach on our Chamber Channel Podcast, where he shares his journey and how the “warrior mindset” will help entrepreneurs find success. Click here to listen.

Sincerely,

P.S. - We were honored to join other South Carolina tourism professionals today for the "Toast to Tourism" event held in Columbia with Governor Henry McMaster, kicking off National Travel & Tourism Week. Tourism is one of the biggest industries in the state, accounting for $30 billion and responsible for one in 10 jobs. Locally, it’s our biggest economic driver and helps enhance the Lowcountry quality of life we all enjoy.
