A Chat With July’s Profile, Doug Mockett, founder/owner of Doug Mockett & Co.

CS: Have you had any mentors or been a mentor to anyone over the course of your career?
DM: I had a mentor who was an entrepreneur, not in the direct marketing business, but he’s done it all. He was really, really brilliant and a good friend of mine. He just had tons of good advice, just incredible. Really good advice. He was an entrepreneur. In fact, he claims he got out of high school and he never had a job. He went to work for himself right away.
