What makes an entrepreneur? Entrepreneurs are constantly innovating, chasing down the next success, always trying to learn more and challenge themselves to take things to the next level. They understand what needs to be done, and they aren’t afraid of the hard work that needs to be done to get there.

There are key skills that an entrepreneur needs to know, but a lot of the time you don’t even know you need to know them - until you do. Digital marketing powerhouse and visionary creative Maxwell Nee is here to share what he wishes he had known when he was starting his own journey as a young entrepreneur. Leaving an unfulfilling role in corporate banking behind, he’s now grown his digital marketing agency into a multi-million dollar empire. Maxwell considers himself an entrepreneur first and investor second, and has found his passion in helping other start-ups realise their own dreams. We cover everything you need to know about being a successful entrepreneur, from creating efficient teams that drive your business forward, to never underestimating the power of networking in accelerating your growth. We also take a more personal look at the values of an entrepreneur, including understanding the value of self-awareness as your biggest tool towards advancing your career, and the specific skills and strategies you need to have to be the best version of yourself at work. Maxwell is generous with his advice as he gives us a masterclass in entrepreneurship 101.

From accountants to chiropractors, and digital marketers to bakers, the idea of starting a business based on your current career can seem like a straightforward pathway to success. But it’s not enough to just excel in your trade - you need to master the complex nuances of the business world too.

Most businesses that are failing have the same problem: they haven’t created an easily replicable (but unshakeable) selling strategy. Someone who has built a whole empire teaching business owners this skill is our guest this week, Michael E Gerber. After his brother-in-law introduced him to Silicon Valley investors over half a century ago, it set off a cascade of career-changing events that left him one of the most sought-after sales consultants in the USA. Since then, Michael’s passion has been helping budding entrepreneurs understand the fundamentals of business and apply them to a wide-ranging kaleidoscope of careers with the same end goal - scaling for consistently successful results that can be reproduced time and time again.

Episode Highlights:
(00:03) The man, the E-Myth, the legend
(00:51) Michael’s answer to the cocktail party question
(01:50) How E-Myth was created: the selling strategy problem
(07:42) The most common mistakes new business owners make
(10:58) Mastering the fundamentals of business (the McDonald’s franchise story)
(17:52) Prepare now for all possible futures
(18:17) Only 2% of people in the world are brilliant creators
(22:49) The businesses Michael has spent half a century building

About Michael E Gerber:
Michael E. Gerber is the author of the NY Times mega-bestseller, for two consecutive decades, "The E-Myth Revisited" and nine other worldwide best-selling E-Myth books concerning small business entrepreneurship, leadership, and management.
