    Without question, one of the most important factors in the success of any business is your ability to hire the right people.

    Dealing with mental health in entrepreneurship (part 2 of 2)

    Last week I spoke about mental health in business, and the question deserved an in-depth answer, so I decided to make it a two-part episode.

    Hopefully sharing these thoughts and my story will help somebody in some way, that’s the reason for doing this. I also made an important announcement on the podcast.

    Without further ado, here is that second part.

    Customer acquisition strategies for bootstrapped or low budget companies

    Last week I was asked the question about what customer acquisition strategies I’ve used and what my advice would be to bootstrapped brands. I shared some stories of the early days of how we did it at Myprotein® and I felt I had a lot more to say on the subject, so I made the answer a two-part episode, and here is that second part.
