#179 - Purpose-Driven CEO: Tips and Advice for Entrepreneurs Who Want to Make an Impact with CEO of Yogi Tea, Giancarlo Marcaccini

Without a doubt, starting your first business has been or will be one of the most challenging ventures you've ever set out to accomplish.

However, as a social entrepreneur, you'll face even greater challenges.

Additionally, social entrepreneurs must solve problems in a way that doesn't involve cutting corners, putting people or the environment in harm's way, or sacrificing the core values that are at the heart of their personal beliefs and businesses.

Beyond this, successful entrepreneurs operating within the sustainable capitalism movement must use their mission-driven business to create solutions for the large-scale issues that we face to lead their industry into a future of sustainability and regeneration.

In our Episode with Giancarlo we discuss:

Throughout the conversation, Marcaccini gives us his best entrepreneurial tips and pieces of business advice for aspiring social entrepreneurs, and he explains how and why they are necessary for entrepreneurial success.
