Jeff Erickson

 We had a great conversation today with Jeff Erickson. He's currently working with a company called Forecaster. He's really involved in the entrepreneurial community here in Utah and really well connected. He had a lot of fun stories about businesses that he and his wife have run, as well as ventures that he's done on his own. You will learn a little bit more about him and also some tips on how to become a LinkedIn influencer. He just surpassed 15,000 followers. 
The Midnight Founders Podcast is focused on telling the behind-the-scenes stories for what makes a successful entrepreneur. Just like Donavan Mitchell spends countless hours practicing step back jumpers to become a master at his craft. Entrepreneurs are in the trenches spending countless hours to become a master at their businesses. We are inspired by this, we believe that is what it takes to be a midnight founder, and we are excited to share their stories.
