So, You Wanna Launch a Business?

We cover where to start, how much it cost to launch Uncommon James, the biggest challenge we faced in the beginning, the things you need that can't be taught, having confidence as a founder, how to have difficult conversations with employees, handling delegation, and how to ask for a raise.
