On this final episode of season 2, I talk with a unique guest who has forged his own path in a career that has ranged from insurance sales, to rental car agency management, to payment processing, and most recently in a financial management role at Northwestern Mutual. His name is Terrence Floyd, and he shares his story about the importance of perseverance, setting personal goals, and creating independent income streams. His insights are unique and helpful, and many of his quotes are memorable.

The fascinating twist was that his journey had a very interesting turn early on, when. his roommate at Delaware St inadvertently brought nunchucks to their dorm room, resulting in Terrence transferring to North Carolina A&T.  In addition to the sticky situation with the marital arts weapons, he spent 6 years studying a field he wound up pivoting out of immediately after finishing his masters degree.

For anyone who has contemplated 100% commission roles or starting a business in an open territory, this is a great conversation to learn about the ups and downs of being in business for yourself.
