CMO, Marketing Consultant, Website Designer
I am Juanyel Holmes, a 27-year-old born and raised in Indianapolis. Ever since I started my career, I have been deeply involved in the sales industry. I am always eager to embark on new business ventures and constantly learn new things. I graduated from Lawrence Central High School and spent some time in college, but my ambition ultimately led me towards starting businesses and taking control of my income. As a dedicated husband and father to two beautiful girls, I strive to balance my personal and professional life.
My six-year experience in the Army National Guard as a reconnaissance medic has been transformative. I achieved the rank of Sergeant and developed invaluable skills that enable me to see the bigger picture of any project. I also participated in leadership development courses provided by the Army, which helped me further hone my leadership abilities.
For the past six years, I have been running a successful marketing and website agency, showcasing my entrepreneurial spirit and business acumen. As a certified Google marketer, I expertly navigate the digital landscape and consistently deliver outstanding results for my clients, creating numerous success stories along the way.
