and most recently the owner-operator of
TLL Ventures, DBA Discount Daze New

Leonard has stacked up an impressive
resume over the past 30-plus years, but he
says that he is most proud of the work he
did at Formula4Media, LLC where he was
a business partner and co-founder of
e Running Event (TRE) and publisher
of Running Insight magazine. In fact it
was at TRE this past November where
Jeff Nott, CEO of Formula 4 Media, and
Leonard reconnected aer 6 years. "One
thing led to another, and aer finishing
each other's sentences I suggested that he
consider coming back to the company.
Leonard's B2B market expertise, his
relationships and passion made his
decision an easy one. And, the fact that the
conversation took place at TRE, the show
that we co-founded, made it that much
more special," said Nott. n

his office in Ocala, FL and can be
reached at 352-207-2347 or email at
