❌ My first business was an absolute failure... 🚫

I grew up in a large family. My Dad, a small business owner and entrepreneur, taught me to work hard and dream big. I remember some of my favorite moments with him were talking about business or coming up with new business ideas.

⚡️ When I was 16, I started a business with a goal to sell and install wind turbines and solar panels. I contacted a manufacturer, and even became an official reseller.

😩 I didn’t sell one wind turbine or solar panel.

🙌🏻 That said, I learned valuable skills. I built a website for my little business. Admittedly, it wasn't a great website, but that was the start to the path that I'm still on today.

🤔 Was it really a failure? I guess it depends on how you define success and failure. What metrics do you use to measure them?

Tell me about some of your "failures"! 👇🏻

The 🔑 to building a powerful brand...
.
.
🌟 Be yourself! Authenticity!

🤝 People want to do business with other people that they KNOW, LIKE, and TRUST.

🎨 The best way to get people to know like and trust you is to create authentic content.

⁉️ But what if people don't like me? Simple. Then they aren't the type of people you want to do business with.

🙌 Your ideal customer is the person that aligns with your values and who you are.

BE YOURSELF. This will attract the right customers 😎

Have a great weekend everyone! ✌️

I just got off a call that reminded me of why I love LinkedIn so much!

I just talked to someone that:

- Is working on something amazing!
- Has so much passion
- Is going to be incredibly successful.

... and I’ve never met them before. LinkedIn connected us.

Thanks LinkedIn for connecting me with amazing people.

That 👆🏻is the power of a network!
