Why We Ride Podcast

What are you doing to prepare for the next dream job?
Are you making connections so you are ready to take the leap if something comes up, like your dream?
Or are you one to believe only the “lucky” get those jobs..
Our industry without a doubt is more accessible when you become part of a network. But what have you been doing to connect with others that work at big companies? Or those businesses that you love but are still too afraid to approach? I strongly believe that anyone can network and build relationships with the big companies or the big name athletes if you stick with it. Most guests on the show tell you how to do it.
So hanging with some of the crew over at 509, primarily a snowmobile company but creating more products in the dirt industry, we get to hear more about their perspective, especially from a big business perspective. Ty Hennessy, the International Sales Manager, and David McKinney, the Creative Marketing Manager, hanging out on the podcast today and diving into their lives working at 509.
This episode could have lasted soo much longer, however we dived into some great details about these two “regular” people and really how they got their start at a big company. Now if you know them, you might not actually know their stories completely. There were some things they didn’t know about each other which made this episode fun and I am stoked to share their stories with each of you. At the end of the day, don’t stop making connections and stepping closer and closer to getting your foot in the door, you never know where you will end up.
