One of his popular and requested speeches outlines the lessons Ford used to go from losing $12.5 billion in 2006 to making $2 billion three years later without taking government bailout money. All this has lead to over 150 live radio show interviews and television appearances on NBC, CBS, ABC and FOX. He even starred on the television show, The CEO Café. Clifton was associate producer of the weekly RFD show Music and Motors for three seasons. He was also the associate producer for the 2013 season of A Prescription for Healthy Living on Familynet Television. He was also an Associate Producer of the Pure Flix movie “I Am Not Ashamed 2016.”

His first book has been translated into Russian. Clifton has been quoted in over 400 different media sources. He has also written various articles on marketing, diversity, compensation, leadership, and other pertinent topics.
Most recently, Clifton served as the Chief Operating Officer for SLANE Jewelry in New York City where he led the company to a 25% increase in the first year.
