First Interview With Myself
I am the host of The Untitled Entrepreneur. I have spent most of my life in sales and service industry. Over the last year I have been studying and listing to podcasts and books for 8 hours a day while I work my day job. This has allowed me to accumulate a vast knowledge of entrepreneurship from the likes of Seth Godin, Brian Tracy,and Zig Zigler. Also, podcasters like JLD from Entrepreneur On Fire and Pat Flynn from Smart Passive Income. My goal in this podcast is to help new entrepreneurs that are less then a year into there adventure, have a place to go to learn from others that are going through similar experiences and learn, encourage, and hold each other accountable for there goals. I feel we all have something to learn from not only people that have taken the journey, but from people that are just getting started.
