#68 Cause Marketing is Good Marketing - Gerald Pygott, PSC Marketing Group

Gerald Pygott was in the military in the '70s, not by choice. His father thought it would "make a man" out of him and landed Gerald doing POW recon in Vietnam. Those stories he'll save for another time... He then was sent by the Navy to Hawaii and was very excited about his upcoming vacation. The vacation turned out to be 10 months at sea! He became a SeaBee (Construction Brigade) and was fixing up sea going ships around the Pacific Rim. Discharged in '79, Gerald started a career with HFC and wound up in Alaska. The company went under so Gerald turned that into seven years of putting in power plants for the local villages. Next was starting his own PSC marketing group. Adapting to the times, PSC shows their clients who to give to COVID-19 causes and PSC gives 5% of its money to help homeless veterans.
