My brother and I had a big vision. More important than creating vast wealth or turning our little corner of the world into something meaningful, in the beginning, it was about making a difference for our customers and to have fun. That changed, once the money started pouring in.
Participants will get a deeper understanding of how pricing and costs, marketing and operations are intricately intertwined and how understanding those can help companies go from a 2-person startup to a career of entrepreneurial adventures!
