Insight Interviews from Successful Entrepreneurs

by Scott Scanlon ·

I came across great entrepreneur audio interviews from Mixergy, these are definitely worth a listen as they provide tons of great insight from people who have been there and done that:

If you don’t have time to listen to them all here are the ones that you should start off with:

Timothy Sykes

Timothy Sykes says he took about $12,000 in bar mitzvah money and turned it into about $2 million. That’s obviously impressive, but the list of people who’ve made fortunes is long and growing daily. What I’m more impressed and curious about is how he’s building his personal brand online, developing a cult following around it and profiting from it all.

Rosalind Resnick

Why listen: Rosalind bootstrapped a company that she eventually took public. You’ll learn the trial and error that went into finding that golden idea.

Peter Pham

If you want to know the value of having a good network, take a look at what it’s done for Peter Pham’s new company, BillShrink:

Networking helped him find a co-founder who is a former venture capitalist.

Networking helped him land a top creative director without having to pay a recruiting fee.

Networking helped him get an adviser who successfully sold a startup in the industry Peter wants to dominate.

Networking helped him get his business funded.
