He is also a regular business commentator on the CBS Talk Radio Network and the Business Talk Radio Network broadcasting to 1.5 million radio listeners, and the Business Television Network and the American Life Network into 35 million cable TV homes each week in the United States. He now has his own business talk TV show, ‘Gettin’ Down 2 Business’ airing in the USA on the BIZ TV Cable network into 20 million homes each week 9pm EST. Troy’s lessons from the edge provide businesses with potent and refined tools, a collection of which you will find in his Amazon bestselling business book, ‘Future-Proofing Your Business’ – real life strategies to prepare your business for tomorrow, today! www.troyhazard.com www.youtube.com/troyhazard

Webinars and promotional material can only go so far. To get real traction you need that human connection.
