What I Learned Working Directly For Mark...

Noah Kagan
About this episode

Check out my Million Dollar Weekend at milliondollarweekend.com. If you need help starting a business, this is the book for you

Today we’re re-running our awesome episode where I break down the top lessons I learned from working directly under Mark Zuckerberg. 

It’s always fun to go down memory lane and remember my time as #30 at Facebook. The lessons I learned there inspire me to this day and are relevant for anyone who is on their own business journey. 

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

  1. How to manage and treat employees. 

  2. How to focus on just one vision.

  3. Why the details matter.

All these plus a bunch more ear nuggets along the way.

If you dig this episode and want to hear another episode where I break things down behind the scenes, go back and check out the episode where I run through the marketing for my book Million Dollar Weekend, that’s episode 335 in this feed.
