This week on Progress Always, I had the privilege of reconnecting with a long-time friend from my middle school years in Okinawa, Japan, Dan Spottsville. 🌟 After parting ways after eighth grade, Dan embarked on what many would consider the “long road” to entrepreneurship. Along the way, he faced the loss of his father, encounters with the law, and battles with alcohol abuse. Despite these challenges, Dan’s enterprising spirit led him to become the top sales rep in his telecomm company before launching Valynt Digital, a multi-7 figure marketing agency specializing in capital raising for clients to drive their respective missions forward.
