Ep. 054 – REACH OR MISS – the truth about the chances of an entrepreneur to succeed
This episode is the last and final part of my 1st year anniversary special events.
The issue of entrepreneurial and startups success rate seems to be a major issue. There isn’t a question about the high chances of failure.
Did you ever ask yourself why? 20 years ago, establishing a startup involved trying new and unfamiliar technologies, which had quite a high chance of failing. But today, most of the startups are about new habits or better ways to organize traditional processes. Most of the technology is mature, and it seems like there shouldn’t be such a high percentage of failing startups and entrepreneurial businesses.
Ep. 053 – REACH OR MISS podcast one year anniversary.
Hi Reachers!
We are celebrating our first birthday, and I’ve chosen to dedicate this episode to recalling the most important issues and the best advice of the remarkably successful entrepreneurs that have been our guests this year.
For each of our interview’s questions I chose one or two answers that best represent the main inspirational message our guests delivered.
I believe the most important message each of you should take from these 52 episodes is the huge importance of speaking, engaging, and focusing on the right audience for your specific startup as the key for your entrepreneurial business success.
At the show-notes of this episode, you will find our birthday gift to you, the list of tools most highly recommended by these successful entrepreneurs and opinion leaders.
