Tyler Sprunk started his first business when he was still in college. Excited by the opportunity to put his marketing and advertising skills to work, he and his business partners owned and operated Forgelight Creative for nearly 3 years before they decided to call it quits. 

Now, over a year later, Tyler is putting his lessons learned to good use as the CMO of a different Midwest-based marketing agency and he's not afraid to talk about learning from failure. In this interview we talk about the challenges he faced in his first business, what he learned the hard way in building and growing an agency, the importance of pricing your services, and how a bad hire or client fit can challenge a young company.
