Led by Dan S. Kennedy, with the support of Forrest Walden and Jim Cavale, the cofounders of Iron Tribe Fitness, and other marketing and branding vets, including Bill Gough, the top marketing adviser to Allstate agents; Steve Adams, CEO of a chain of 21 retail stores and an e-commerce business; and Nick Nanton of the Dicks-Nanton Celebrity Branding Agency, entrepreneurs learn how to develop and gain profit from their personal or business brand - without a corporate-sized investment.
