Managing a P&L that equaled $18.9 million, Mike showed his combined legal and business acumen in many ways at Muzak, restructuring and re-licensing a residential, audio offering powered by Muzak and learning the nuanced-art of franchisee relations as he teamed with an internal franchise department to drive national sales, solve disputes, support franchisee initiatives, and enforce franchisor standards.
