An interview with Clay Risher, Director of Business Development at TrueNorth Capital Partners LLC

Clay Risher didn’t take the Orthodox road to investment banking. He started his career in technology sales, working on large OEM account sales globally for clients like AT&T and IBM. After a few years, he got the entrepreneurial bug and co-founded a marketing firm where he ultimately ran operations, but doubling as creative director too. After growing the firm to multiple millions of dollars in revenues, he then exited the business and transitioned into corporate sales, becoming a Senior Vice President of National Accounts for a publicly traded company.
