The Manufacturing Marketer

Today, we’re joined by a very special guest - Brendon Forrest! You probably remember Brendon from The Manufacturing Marketer and Industrial Marketing Live. He’s a senior strategist here at Gorilla 76, but he’s also in the military and is currently on leave serving our country. Brendon is keeping his marketing skills sharp though! He’s been doing some “side hustles” in his free time while deployed. That’s our topic for today! Whether you’re volunteering, freelancing, or building your own personal brand - how can marketing side hustles help you excel in your career?
