On this week’s special episode of The Motivational Intelligence Podcast, David Naylor interviews Frank Buono, the President of NEXT! Ad Agency, a Division of CGI Communications. Frank has been a fixture at CGI since it was started in 1988, helping to grow annual revenues from $0 to nearly $50 million. This interview covers his journey and the lessons he’s learned along the way – namely, how trust, loyalty and destroying doubt have been keys to his and the company’s success.

His path through CGI has been characterized by his philosophy of, “I would rather beg for forgiveness than ask for permission” and an unrivaled driving passion. As the leader of NEXT! since its onset in 2010, Frank brings this passion to his clients and his team.

Frank resides in Webster, New York, where he lives with his three sons, Michael, Jeffery, and Eric. In his free time, Frank can be found skiing, boating, biking, and participating in anything outdoors. He also loves watching and playing sports with his friends and family, while exploring his passion for red wine. Frank hopes to be an advocate for “Main Street” businesses: watching their backs and always keeping them ahead of the curve with new technology and marketing trends.
