5 Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting My Business
Manage episode 475086555 series 3524310
Eight years thrown into the deep end of business—freelancing, steering an agency, juggling a team, and battling cash flow storms. It’s been a wild, bruising ride, with falls that hit harder than any textbook lesson. Perfection’s a trap that’ll freeze you, saying “no” to bad clients keeps you sane, and operations trump slick marketing every time.
Nobody’s got it all figured out, polished or not. My lifeline? A tight circle of fellow hustlers who get the isolation—one even landed me a massive client over late-night drinks. In this episode, there’s no polish, just raw truth about the chaos of building something real: how to spot the clients that’ll drain you, why solid operations are your backbone, and how a network can pull you through the grind. If you’re slugging through your own business mess, maybe my story can spark something.
