Today we’d like to introduce you to Brandon Hatch.
Hi Brandon, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Certainly. Becoming the CEO of my own company at 23 was never something that I had envisioned for myself at this age. If you had spoken to me five years ago and told me where I was going to be today, I likely would not have believed you. This disbelief would not have come from the opinion that what I have now achieved was not possible, but rather from the fact that being where I am today was never part of the plan.
To give you some backstory on myself, I am a Florida native born and raised. Growing up, I was never one of those kids that had their career fully figured out. Many kids from a young age have their ideal occupation already decided, whether that be doctor, lawyer, firefighter, etcetera. I was never one of those kids. The business field has always been of interest to me, but the application of how to take that interest, and convert it into a profession has been the cultivation of years, taking into account my various professional experiences, education, life endeavors, and an immense amount of research.
The beginning of my professional career was found in the automotive industry, as the lead valet for a local dealership. This was my first job, and was the stepping stone of my business experience, allowing me to better understand business operations, and what it was like to be part of a workforce first-hand. Moving forward from the automotive industry, I found myself in Real Estate. Taking on a position as an assistant sales associate for a real estate developer and working my way up the ranks in the organization, provided me with the tools and platform to build a strong foundation of understanding business. Holding multiple positions within this organization provided me with a comprehension of both the internal and external workings of running a company. This granted me a vast amount of knowledge, experience, and opportunities to grow as an individual.
Educationally, I have two degrees in the field of business as well as certificates in business management, sales, and entrepreneurship from Daytona State College. My time spent in college allowed me to dedicate time to deeply study many business topics including leadership styles, supply chain efficiencies, and project management. This studying not only taught me much about business, but about myself as well including my inherent beliefs about leadership, management, and business culture.
The thought of me starting my own company came from the realization that deep down what truly drives me is helping others and seeing them succeed as a result. Naturally, I have always been a problem solver which fits perfectly into this complex. Through learning more about the business consulting space, I found that it matched up exactly with my passion for business and what I wanted out of a professional career. Starting a business consulting firm allowed me to carve my path to success how I personally saw fit, and to better others in the process.
It provided me with the platform to work hands-on with a wide range of individuals located in various industries and help them succeed by improving their businesses. Now I stand before you today as the Founder, and CEO of Hatch Crown a modern business consulting firm focused on helping the operations and growth of organizations, and I could not be more pleased to be where I am today.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Starting your own business is never easy. It requires vast amounts of hard work, dedication, and risk that many do not realize. When starting my business consulting firm, Hatch Crown, I faced the struggle of not truly knowing if I was going to be successful, and the doubt that accompanied that. This led to many negative thoughts, and regret for my decision-making in the very beginning stages of taking this leap of faith.
The best way I found to cope with this struggle and overcome it was through reflection on how far I had come as an individual, the bravery I had upheld in starting my own company, and the belief I had in myself to make this company a success.
When taking risks there is always going to be a chance that things do not go your way, but it is far better to take a risk giving it one hundred and ten percent of your energy than looking back years later and regretting not taking the risk at all. With my full commitment to building up this company, the gaining of clientele, and the support of my close friends and family the road has become much smoother.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Hatch Crown?

What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
In the next 5-10 years, I certainly see a shift found within the utilization of artificial intelligence both on the client side as well as the consulting side. Through artificial intelligence, I see the potential for greater efficiency in helping clients analyze their organizations and locate their problem areas. Additionally, I believe more organizations are going to adopt artificial intelligence into their operations to free up human capital for other business endeavors.
In congruence with recent trends, I have found that more and more businesses are outsourcing their work, whether that be their internal or external business workings. I see this trend continuing onward for the next 5-10 years due to the benefits it provides both the organization outsourcing their workforce as well as the remote workers. Overall, I think that the consulting field in its entirety will continue to increase as more and more businesses seek to solve their operational problems and grow as an organization. We at Hatch Crown certainly look forward to helping them.
