How would you like to get some real-world advice from Michael Paxton, the former CEO of Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream? Or how about Michael Boyd, the co-founder of QVC?

Benson is the CEO and founder of InspireLink, a Naples startup that has conducted video interviews with dozens of successful entrepreneurs. The list is impressive: Bill Roth, former CEO of Trane Air Conditioning; Don Gunther, former vice chairman of Bechtel; Robert Hawthorne, former CEO of Pillsbury; and Gary Vaynerchuk, founder of VaynerMedia and Wine Library.
