Entrepreneurial Role Models:
When business started difficulties overcame:
“I would say the biggest difficulty I had was even just starting… I had been working at a company for the next six years give or take and in those six years I had dabbled and tried to go and build my own business again but I had always failed. I failed in this venture and that venture. By the time that I was five or six years into career with other companies I was starting to have some real doubts to whether or not I was even an entrepreneur… Was I even cut out for this?”…[Listen for More]

Other Quotes From the Chat with Lloyd Yip:
- “Everything from sales and marketing and automation and hiring… Today I know much more than I did a year ago…”
- “I think being an entrepreneur is being good at a lot of little things and stacking these five percent or 10 percent incremental improvements month over month on yourself at 17, 18, 25 different parts of the business. And that’s how you grow and get better and better and better. It’s like just constantly improving on all aspects over and over and over and over again…”
- “it’s not any specific tactic or strategy, I think it’s looking at adversity in the face and recognising that the process of solving it is fun and then the actual outcome when you solve it is thrilling. And instead of looking at adversity like it’s a bad thing going at it like it’s again that it’s super fun to experience….”
- “In order to sell and get people to be on your side the best thing that you can do is to just educate and help. Teach them something that they didn’t already know, challenge their assumptions and making them realise that there is a better way of doing things that they may be initially hadn’t considered”
- “in general, I think the best place to learn is from other people and in communities of other people with like-minded ideas”
