Former Marine, Go Daddy CEO Credits Marines
Lessons learned from the USMC have served Bob Parsons through out his life.
Bob Parsons, former lance corporal, rifleman and current owner of the largest internet domain registry in the world, GODADDY.com, has had a life full of challenges and only attributes his success to his few years as a United States Marine.
“There is no doubt in my mind that the lessons I took away from the Corps is what has made me succeed in my life,” said Parsons. “And I know for a fact that the Marine Corps is the only reason I graduated from high school.”
Besides GoDaddy, Parsons also owned Parsons Consulting which he sold to Intuit. He then retired but started working on GoDaddy and voila we have the 2004 Super Bowl commercial.
Parsons now enjoys a great company in GODADDY.com as well as having a weekly radio show and extremely successful and visited BLOG on www.bobparsons.com. It is a witty, respectful yet “in-your-face” approach to life and solutions and for all you Marines out there, ensure that you take a look at his annual Marine Corps birthday card he puts out….you can still see them.
