From Council Estate To Selling A Global Business For Millions At 27 - Timothy Armoo Founder of Fanbytes
This weeks guest has an incredibly inspiring story that I feel privileged to share. Timothy Armoo is a born entrepreneur from humble beginnings who started his first business Alpha Tutoring, at the age of 14, and his second, EntrepreneurExpress, at 17 which he sold in under a year. 5 years later, Tim cofounded Fanbytes, the 5x award-winning social and influencer marketing agency which helps brands win the heart’s of GenZ. Tim recently sold Fanbytes at the age of 27 with an 8 figure exit, and needless to say, he’s also been named in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list for his achievements in Media and Marketing. In the conversation we talk about Tim’s drive for entrepreneurship and how executed on this at a ridiculously young age despite facing challenges along the way, as well as discussing a tonne of actionable advice for people interested in starting a business.
