Today is the next part of our brutally honest series. We're shifting from 'Career Advice' to 'Business Advice'. Careers are like dipping your toes in the water, but business is where the real cash flow happens. And you know me, I'm all about that money!

I’m jumping back into the Miata time machine for 'Back to Noah’s Future 2', where I’m sharing the best business advice I wish I knew back in the day, and hey, maybe it’ll help you out too. People are always hustling to reinvent the wheel and create new paths in business but the best path is already cut for you. So Listen up to my mental torment, learn from my mishaps, and hop on the expressway to those sweet, sweet money bags

 

In this conversation, you’ll enjoy 3 BIG things:

  • Follow curiosity, not opportunity

  • Find people who are already saying yes to a sale and build your business around them.

  • The importance of being intent to get the ball rolling vs. being sustainable to win the game.

 

Enjoy these 3 things plus about 20 more ear nuggets along the way.
