Why We Aren't the CEOs of Our Own Companies And Why You Shouldn't Be Either | Ep. #1042

In episode #1042, we discuss why we aren’t the CEO’s of our own companies. Tune in to hear why being your own CEO isn’t the greatest idea. We have committed to throwing a FREE Marketing School Live Event in Los Angeles. Check out the details on this website if you would like to attend. Remember: we are capping the event at 500 people, so sign up now, if you’re interested! DM Eric if you would like to participate in the VIP dinner. TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES: [00:27] Today’s Topic: Why We Aren't the CEOs of Our Own Companies And Why You Shouldn't Be Either [00:40] If you start small, you may have to be the CEO at first. [00:55] You should always consider whether you are capable of being the best CEO for your company. Consider what your skill set is. [01:30] Focus your time on what you are the best at doing. [01:45] Eric doesn’t like being a CEO and it’s not his strong suit. [02:25] We realized that there are people out there with more experience than us, who will achieve more as CEO’s than we would. [03:05] Berkshire Hathaway just had their annual meeting. [03:20] They don’t invest in tech, but rather focus on what they do know. [04:35] For us, it’s too crazy to take on the role of CEO, because of all the other projects we like to focus on. [05:07] That’s it for today! [05:14] We are almost at capacity for our live event, so register while you still can: Check out Single Grain for more info. Leave some feedback: What should we talk about next?
