CEO students had the opportunity to hear from William Zimmermann, CEO/Owner of Moon Coil Media, a premier PR & artist management agency representing artists across goth, industrial, darkwave, post-punk, synthpop, and more.
William challenged our students to rethink a word that often gets a bad reputation:

👉 𝑫𝑰𝑺𝑹𝑼𝑷𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵

His message? 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙨 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙧𝙪𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮.

William shared his journey of walking away from a traditional career path to stay true to his values—taking a leap of faith to turn his side hustle into a full-time business. A powerful reminder that sometimes the biggest risks lead to the most authentic success.

Key takeaways that resonated:
⚡ Disruption can be a catalyst for growth
⚡ Stay true to your values—even when it’s difficult
⚡ The right systems matter—CRM tools, media planning, time management, and task prioritization all drive success
⚡ Never stop learning—books and continued education are game changers

We also loved that William shared impactful reads from his entrepreneurial journey—and even gifted a copy of The E-Myth by Michael Gerber to one lucky student! 📚

William, thank you for your transparency, your tools, your perspective—and of course, the donuts! 🍩👏
