Ep: 292 - Always free, never a fee with Don Martin

Don Martin was a an elite level performing Baseball player who after college played some pro ball until an injury forced him into a different path in life, or was it faith? He felt a calling to help others, because of his upbringing and having family members that have served in the military, Don knew he wanted to give back to those who have severed our great nation.  We kick off the show with Don sharing his story and getting to know him a little better.

 

Fast-forward to today, Don is a very successful business man and is great at building relationships with other entrepreneurs. We discuss networking, helping others and a new project he has now for veterans called Veterans Biz Connect (https://www.bizconnectcoalition.com/veteranbizconnect). Picture this, more business referrals, less uncomfortable conversations and more enjoyable experience networking with fellow veterans.  That’s what Veteran Biz connect is all about.  More than 60 % of people won’t attend a traditional networking event like the chambers of commerce, business card exchanges, mixers or business lunches because they felt uncomfortable.  Well now there is a networking opportunity for veterans right on line with Veteran Biz Connect. Here is an added bonus, if you are a veteran owned business you can have your company listed on veteransowned.biz for FREE, or as Don likes to say “Always free, never a fee”.

 

IF you are a veteran owned company, you need to check out both Veteran Biz Connect  and veteranowned.biz

 

We wrap up the show with Don sharing two “Decision Hour” moments in his life, one about playing baseball and the other, coaching entrepreneurs to success. Don has been coaching  entrepreneurs for nearly two decades. There is no doubt he has a passion to help others succeed.
