Lockdown 2 Legacy

Picture this: A life cloaked in crime, a past daubed with felonies, a future seemingly bleak and uncertain. Then envision a transformation so profound, it shatters the chains of the past, leading to a career that would be envied by many. That's exactly the metamorphosis our guest, Sullivan Rogers, went through. From serving time behind bars to serving customers in a car dealership, Sullivan's journey is anything but ordinary.
In our enlightening conversation with Sullivan, he unravels how he swapped a life of crime for a career in the auto industry. After his release from prison in '95, Sullivan hustled his way to Great Lakes Honda West, where he went from being viewed as a risk to clinching the title of 'Salesman of the Year.' Hear his inspiring story of resilience and redemption, how he climbed from being a salesperson to becoming a director of the special finance department, despite skepticism and societal stigma.
As we continue our engaging discourse, Sullivan sheds light on the importance of mentorship and second chances in his extraordinary turnaround. From his attempts to secure a clean slate by seeking a pardon to the hurdles he had to clear to get hired, Sullivan shares it all. He also discusses his decision to take a pay cut to amass experience that eventually led him to be the General Sales Manager and Marketing Per Se for Great Lakes Honda West.
