In this Griddlesode, Ron digs deep into his desk drawer to find an interview that he recorded in 1998 with entrepreneur Arthur Nelson, who explains how a chance encounter with one of the most influential entrepreneurs on the 20th century shaped his career. The show was inspired by Christopher S. Penn’s post entitled: What Copy Are You Sitting On? You can learn more about Chris through his blog called Awaken Your Super Hero or hear him on the award winning Marketing Over Coffee podcast that he co-hosts with John Wall (Not the Basketball Player).
