Show Notes
Last year Chris sold a creative marketing agency he’d founded called Verb and he’s now the Co-Founder of Lottie, which just raised £6 million on a £45 million valuation.
But before these successes, he experienced failure with his website the Real Uni Guide, which aimed to match students with the right universities for them. Along with his co-founder brother, he spent over a year building the website but when they launched, hardly anyone visited.
Find out what happened and what Chris learnt from this failure that defined his career.
If you have any feedback, we’d love to hear it. What would make the show better?
