Andrew Yonkers joined the United States Air Force in 2002 after high school graduation. He started his military service in aircraft structural maintenance, primarily working on F-16 fighter jets. Andrew planned to work for a military contractor after he retired from the service. However, the job offers did not meet his financial expectations, so he started to hunt for alternatives. That is when he met Jamie Allen, a Career Ownership Coach™ with The Entrepreneur’s Source® (TES), who contacted him. They both began the exploration of the business ownership opportunities available to Andrew.

This Podcast covers their journey together. Both gentlemen had military backgrounds, and Jamie knew he could guide Andrew through discovering the possibilities.

Jamie adds: Andrew chose to complete his military career. Now, it’s time to go to Career 2.0. And it’s all positive, but it’s completely new, and his options are many different types. He has a lot of leadership and management skills. And the first thing I heard in his voice was I want to use those. I want to be my own boss; Andrew learned a lot throughout his military career, which resonated with us both. And I want to use that I want to use it for family, and I want to use it for our community, and I have a vision of where I’m going and be in charge of that vision. Early in our conversations, he talked about being a multi-unit owner with multiple territories and possibly multiple franchise brands to diversify.
