Hey everyone, and welcome to Episode 26 of the Darn Good Life Podcast. I am your host, Danielle Roberts, and today I’m bringing you a second, special edition Mental Health Awareness Month interview with Colton Mewbourne.
Colton is a Business Gift Specialist for Cutco, the number one business gift company in the n nation. He’s a graduate of the University of West Florida with a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and Logistics. As a direct sales rep, Colton has eclipsed $1.3 million worth of Cutco kitchen knife sales and has mentored others along the way. He speaks all across the country to various agents, entrepreneurs, and sales people delivering workshops on sales, marketing, and branding.
This past year, Colton partnered with renowned coach Rob Dial to help business professionals and coaches level up their business, including mindset support.
Along with helping to run these two businesses, he enjoys DJing, eating pizza, and hosting his own podcast called Professional Hippies.
Colton in general is one of the most grounded, fascinating people I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking with. To me, his presence and the way he speaks and the intensity with which he listens all collectively make him incredible and worth listening to.
