About Your Host:
Mike Jones
Managing Partner, Resound
Remarkable brands require authenticity and a die-hard commitment to values & purpose. Mike passionately preaches these beliefs as author of the book, You Are Remarkable: How To Unlock Your Authentic Brand To Win Loyal Customers as well as two podcasts he hosts and produces: Resoundcast and the Remarkabrand Podcast.
He works directly with clients to unlock their remarkable brands through his award-winning brand consultancy, Resound – established in 2009. (He also founded his own apparel brand devoted to American political history, called Taftly. But that’s a whole other story.)
He has supported the Arizona entrepreneurial community through his co-directorship of Phoenix Startup Week, co-founding the startup-supporting non-profit Thrive PHX, and serving on the boards of Conscious Capitalism Arizona and The Center for Habilitation.
In recognition of the work he’s done, this Arizona native has been named one of the state’s top business leaders under the age of 40 by the Phoenix Business Journal as well as a 35-Under-35 entrepreneurial award from the Arizona Republic.
He lives in the very sunny vale of Mesa, AZ with his wife and three kids. If you want to connect, LinkedIn’s usually where you’ll find him – @remarkamike.
