Fred Griffin Jr. – Fred Consulting

With a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration-Leadership, Fred Griffin Jr. has what it takes to help business owners navigate the challenges of starting a new company.

“I feel like I have been gifted and blessed with the ability to help business owners find their niche,” Fred says. “I know first-hand what it takes to start and operate my own successful business and it’s my passion to share that knowledge,” he says. 

Fred Consulting has been a mainstay in assisting local business owners achieve success since 2017 and in 2020, things unexpectedly took-off.

“I had already been conducting workshops, doing speaking engagements at schools and mentoring several clients when Covid hit,” he says. “Luckily, I was able to help people understand the American Rescue Fund paperwork and get folks up and running, or in some cases, back on their feet.”

Fred asks the key questions about marketing strategies, human resources and operations. 

“There is so much to do when starting up and many who have the passion may not have experience so they need step by step guidance,” he says. 

Fred adds that passion is the most important part of success. 

“The money will come if you have the passion.” 

Fred is running for Leesburg City Commission District 3 for the November 5, 2024 election.
