1. Chris Foreman - Marketplace.city Mike Mayer and Donovan Morrison 50:38

Growing up, Chris Foreman learned the basics of politics, fundraising, and hard work from his family. Although he didn't end up pursuing politics (or a burgeoning sports career), Chris leveraged these early life experiences to enter the business world.

Chris' perspective from working with both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations led him to identify inefficiencies surrounding government procurement processes. This knowledge, paired with the drive to make a difference, was the basis for Marketplace.city. Tune in this week to learn more about how Chris blazed his own trail on The CEO Next Door!

Mike Mayer CEO Next Door

For the past 25 years, I've led digital transformations for billion-dollar B2B companies including Thermo Fisher Scientific, Crescent Electric and U.S. Electrical Services.

In 2020, I had an ‘aha’ moment. There were no agencies specializing in digital marketing for distributors and manufacturers, so I built one!

I also host a podcast called the CEO Next Door where we have weekly conversations with groundbreaking entrepreneurs who share their journeys to success.
