Welcome to the Back Bedroom to Big Business podcast hosted by the talented and educational hosts Dino Tartaglia and Simon Hartley. Our hosts are a winning team with combined experience, research, and know how to help other business owners get where they want to go. Back Bedroom to Big Business is not an average business podcast that makes you feel inspired, but not motivated to action. You’ll be taking notes during their weekly episodes and planning how to implement what you’ve learned.
During this episode, Dino and Simon discuss part two of their series about building a global business without venture capital funding or significant investments. This episode will focus on case studies of extremely successful online businesses and how they attained their global status with little to no support.
