Brad Schlossmann Brad is a veteran of the auto industry, currently celebrating the 50-year anniversary of Schlossmann Auto Group. He’s been involved with the auto group, himself, since 1977 and has been a big player of the company’s continuing growth. His most recent entrepreneurial endeavor, Ground Floor Funding, is his own startup that he developed to help accelerate new business development. Ground Floor Funding Crediting a family history of entrepreneurs, Brad has an appreciation for startup businesses. He saw a need to help entrepreneurs get their business ideas off the ground and thus, Ground Floor Funding was born.
