My name is Hakeem Richmond, the President & CEO of Richmond Marketing from Glenwood, IL. Graduated from Illinois State University with a major in sociology, I have a passion for business and helping people. Gained experience in public speaking, at an early age through caddying, which has provided me with valuable communication skills. My love for sports such as baseball, basketball, football, golf and boxing show my appreciation for competition, teamwork, and discipline. Additionally, as a current golfer, I understand the importance of focus, strategy, and perseverance in achieving your goals. Sales has been a perfect career path for me to compete professionally, while also growing personally through the process. My goal is to grow a massive organization filled with self-motivated and self-driven individuals. My desire to create a successful business venture and make a positive impact on the lives of others. To achieve my vision, I’m going to continue developing my leadership skills, networking with like-minded individuals, and seeking opportunities to learn and grow in the business world. Remember, success often comes with challenges and setbacks along the way, but maintaining your passion, determination, and a strong work ethic will help you overcome obstacles and achieve your desired future.
