176: What it Takes to be a Founder with Chase Harmer

"If it's not worth going all in, is it worth it to do this whole thing? If you're not willing to go all the way in, don't even try it." -Chase Harmer

What makes a founder distinct from an entrepreneur? If you have a unique idea for a business, perhaps the next step you'd take is to build your own company. Apparently, being a founder takes more than guts and vision. A founder is someone who is willing to go all-in no matter what. This week, Chase Harmer, the CEO of ProfitPay, tells from experience what it really takes to be a founder- and a successful one at that. Chase discusses what needs to be done and met to build a scalable company that does not simply earn money, but gain profits. Ted and Chase also talk about where the ability to see things differently comes from, how the logicals and the creatives can make a great team, what to remember before you pivot, how to manage setbacks, and how to be ready when opportunity finally knocks on your door. So, are you ready to be a founder? Tune in and make your visions come to life!
