My guest today, Rand Fishkin, is the author of one of the best business books I’ve ever read, and trust me, I’ve read a lot of business books!
It’s called Lost and Founder, and it charts his journey as a marketing tech business entrepreneur who raised money from Venture Capital investors and was growing at 100% year on year.
It’s a ruthlessly honest book in which Rand breaks down the details and behind-the-scenes experiences of an entrepreneur. I think it’s essential reading for any founder or business owner looking to scale and seek an exit.
During our conversation,
And as someone with almost half a million followers on Twitter, Rand gives thoughtful advice to entrepreneurs on building their own personal brand - spoiler alert, it’s not what you might think!
Now, for an inspiring and refreshingly candid conversation, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Mr. Rand Fishkin.
