Garland Coulson
Technology Explorer, Speaker, Marketing and Time Management Expert
Consultant
Available
I am a passionate explorer of how developing technologies can be used to build businesses and communities.
I do more than "think outside the box" I ACT outside the box while testing and tracking everything I do to find the hidden gems of marketing that outperform the rest.
I take active leadership roles in organizations I belong to and am a strong team builder.
