John Holland

Testimonial

“When we first met John Holland from Plutus Consulting Group, we were in the early stages of bringing our product to market and had little to no experience on how to navigate through the retail industry to launch our product. Through John’s mentorship, guidance, connections and wealth of experience, we were able to outline a strategy to ensure rapid national distribution. Our company is now on a growth trajectory that would not have been possible without his expertise and mentorship.” Morgan Wyatt, PhD President/Founder, The Greenlid
