Ep 90: The biggest lesson I learned in business...

Ep 90: The biggest lesson I learned in business...

I can remember being right out of college - super excited and ready to take on the world and crush this business Jamison and I had started. Boy was I in for a rude awakening. A reality check. Starting a business is easy. Growing a business and getting customers is A WHOLE NOTHER THING.

What does it actually take to not just start a business, but to actually GROW it?

In this episode, I tell real stories of what I did to grow the business and get the customers I wanted. The beautiful thing is, we can all do it - and so much more - we just have to let go of the fears of 2019, 2018 and beyond. I'll show you how I got rid of those fears and limiting beliefs in exchange for growth, success, and goals accomplished.

Ep 75: How to increase your network

The people you surround yourself with (aka, your NETWORK) is essential to your future and your success. There's a saying by Jim Rohn "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” There is a reason for this. Your environment is going to have an enormous impact on your actions, feelings, and thoughts. It's critical that you are aware of who is in your inner circle and what they contribute (or not contribute) to your life?

Today is the day to start thinking about that and why not start with today's episode with LegendVest's very own Jamison Gavin.
