This is an insightful and inspiring episode that will help any young entrepreneur who is facing struggles in their business.
Episode Highlights:
02:53 - I'd say I'm an independent person. I like to think through things. I'm very entrepreneurial, and I want to be spontaneous at times. I love creativity.
07:51 - When I started, I didn't think that was what I'm going to do, but that's kind of the difficulty of the business. At the beginning, I thought this will be good money that can get me through and support myself.
12:48 - They are not as familiar with knowing how to fill out legal forms. You really need to walk through each individual's steps with them which takes quite a bit of time.
21:53 - I think a lot of it is just trying to be genuine with them and even if we are not the best company to go for, we don't have all the benefits, but we try to create a good environment that makes it a good experience for them.
