Entrepreneurship and Leadership with Senator Mark Maynard

In this episode of the Kanawha Valley Hustlers podcast, I talk with Senator Mark Maynard at Meet-Up 64 in Charleston. He represents the sixth district and owns Maynard’s Auto World, a salvage yard and pre-owned car lot. While his Senate duties take up much of his time, he remains passionate about the automotive industry. We discuss how the internet has changed car sales and how his family business, started in 1967, has adapted over the years. He stresses the importance of staying current with industry trends and continuing education. With degrees in business management and marketing from Marshall University, he applies his knowledge to both business and politics. As we wrap up, he highlights legislative efforts focused on West Virginia’s economy and encourages people to stay informed.
