We had the privilege of spending time with Greg Punt, Owner & CEO of Punt Companies and G&S Logistics in Prinsburg, Minnesota — and as always, it was time well spent.

Our CEO students had the opportunity to sit down and hear firsthand what entrepreneurship really looks like — how it started, the ups and downs along the way, and what happens when the “real world” and the business world collide.

Greg shared powerful stories, but one lesson stood out: understanding the balance between paying things off and strategically borrowing to grow. Smart money decisions matter — but even more important is something you can’t put a price tag on: your reputation.

We talked about how character, follow-through, and integrity shape how others view you — and how businesses succeed when people trust the person behind them. People do business with people they trust.

Thank you, Greg, for your continued support of the CEO Program and for investing your time and wisdom into the next generation of entrepreneurs. We appreciate you!
