One of the killer lines I have is, would it be a stupid idea to hop on a call and see if I could help you with this?

Because nobody says, yes, that's a completely idiotic idea, if they're not like very, very rude.

So that's one of the ways I'm able to do you. Hi, I'm Greg Gunn and welcome to the future podcast. Today's guest is an entrepreneur, brand strategist, and salesperson who helps creatives get more clients.

He's also 19 years old. Now before you ask

yourself the very reasonable question, what does a 19 year old know about business or

sales, I'd like to ask you to save your judgment until after you listen to the episode.

The conversation starts with a healthy amount of skepticism, but after listening to it myself,

I have to say, the guy kind of knows his stuff.

He walks Chris through his thinking and sales tactics

for identifying and contacting prospective clients all on LinkedIn

and he does it step by step like you could literally write it down and

try it out yourself but talking to talk and walking the walk are two very

different things all I can say is that you might learn something new about business,

and it might be from a 19-year-old.

Please enjoy our conversation with Yona Corpy.

I'm excited to talk to you because Melinda was speaking about you in ways that I'm like okay I got to get you on the show

So those people who don't know you can you introduce yourself please? Yes, of. So I'm an entrepreneur and a brand

strategist not nothing out of the ordinary but what is a bit out of the

ordinary is my age so I'm 19 old. I've been in the creative industry for about six and a half years, the first, about four of which were only like as a hobby started by my father and then I got a job at a marketing agency at 16.

I started my first business at 17 and right now I'm running three separate businesses so one marketing agency with

13 different people I'm a partner and head of strategy there and then I have my own like consulting business slash holder and then I have

an online training platform with a couple of my good friends. So essentially that's that's the short version of the story.
