#79 You Can't Connect the Dots Until You Have the Dots - Ian Faison, Caspian Studios

Published: Oct. 14, 2020, 5:41 p.m.

Listen to an in depth interview with Veteran Founders' new co-host, Cynthia Kao, who worked with Josh in Operation Code on a separate episode. For today, welcome her as she and Josh interview Ian Faison, A West Point grad, Ian didn't care for boats or planes, so the Army was natural. His father did serve in the military and as a sophomore in high school, Ian was encouraged to check out West Point. He was nominated by Barbara Lee from Oakland, California. It was unusual for Oakland people to go to West Point, but Ian was in sports and an Eagle Scout, so his resume worked. In sales, Ian understood he was good at connecting people and helping get the word out for a client. That got him started on the path to offering a way for B2B companies to reach out to their audience through podcasts. So the more dots he made, the more connections too.
