“Be the most positive person you know”

Man…F@#K! Foreword by Kevin Harrington

Kevin Harrington the Original Shark from ABC’s Hit TV Show “Shark Tank” and Inventor of the Infomercial; Renowned Public Speaker and Bestselling Author of Act Now; How I Turn Ideas into Million-Dollar Products, Key Person of Influence, and Put a Shark in Your Tank.

As a pioneer of the As Seen On TV industry responsible for over $5 billion in product sales, I’ve worked with hundreds of business owners over the years.  The strongest qualities that set entrepreneurs apart are ambition and fearlessness.  When Rod Marchand and I met at my pitch event in 2019, it was apparent that once he set his mind to building a successful business, there was no stopping him.  It was my pleasure to endorse Accord Comfort Sleep Systems, and I was honored to write this foreword for the publishing of his first book.

One of the most common mistakes I see entrepreneurs make is overthinking their ideas instead of acting.  While most people are second-guessing their decisions and letting doubt hold them back, true entrepreneurs are doing.  Rod Marchand has always been one of those people.  He spent his life turning a solid family furniture business into a budding empire.  From developing innovative new mattress products to wearing every hat in the company, Rod’s scrappy business mentality has been the secret to his success.  He has never been afraid of stepping out of his comfort zone to help his company evolve and grow.

 

Man…F@#K! is a down-to-earth account of an everyday man’s journey in entrepreneurship.  It is a personal and professional peek inside the life of a business owner, husband and father of 7.  In this first book published by Rod Marchand, readers can experience the rollercoaster of starting and running a business, with all the accompanying highs and lows.  Rod teaches us that no matter how many times you stop and say “man…f@#k!” you shake it off and keep pushing forward. 

As a lifelong entrepreneur, I myself have experienced the same adventures continuously throughout the years.  Reading Rod’s story took me back to some of my own memories and lessons learned…all leading to where I am today.  The journey is not over for either of us, and hopefully Rod’s stories will help other entrepreneurs realize they’re not alone.  Keep pushing, with ambition and fearlessness…and most of all, a positive mindset!  Enjoy the book…
