Mitch Slater - Springsteen, Music and Managing Money

Phil Gerbyshak (he/him)

Feb 19, 2020

Mitch Slater is a musician, he's been a radio producer, he's a financial advisor, and the biggest Springsteen fan I know. I first encountered Mitch several years ago, and immediately saw he was one in a million. He doesn't push anything on social media, except for Springsteen. He's sharing his passions, engaging in conversations, and is there to offer encouragement and a smart word.

Make no mistake: He is GREAT at what he does! He is one of Gary Vaynerchuk's financial go to people, and he's always trying to push the financial industry forward into new realms, by being a genuine marketer who kicks butt as his job and embraces the SOCIAL part of social media.

Special treat: Live performance from Mitch Slater

Mitch performed a song for us, so I'm also including the video of his performance. I hope the recording makes you smile as much as it made me smile when he performed for me live.

Here's the video version of this conversation: https://youtu.be/Go88ZD0vcCE
