In this episode, we speak to our first Communication Studies Alumnus (on the podcast) Chad Bennett '03, founder of Populus Brands. He shares his story about how he created a career and a company when he didn’t get the job he wanted. Instead, he used it as an opportunity to learn which lead him to a discovery.  He tells us how he saw a gap that could be filled by being a matchmaker between entertainment and marketing.
