Shownotes
Adam Michaels is an entrepreneur and founder of Enrollify, a platform that aims to solve problems faced by consultants, brokers, and enrollment firms in converting cost containment strategies into results. Equipped with over 25 years of experience, he realized that you don’t need to sell to succeed, but educate instead. He believes leaders should have the heart of a social worker, but the mind of a capitalist. Adam is also the author of the book Sink or Shine, where he separates the modern marketplace into two categories: Tugboats and Lighthouses.
