If you missed last weeks Entrepreneur Intel Podcast with Josh Linkner, you'll want to go back and give it a listen. He had tons of great insight to share. The way he intertwines his creative passion for Jazz music and entrepreneurship was impressive. But, this clip here speaks volumes to the entrepreneur mentality, and our approach at Stealth Consulting. Sure, founders Jon Bowerman and Wesley J. Mathews could have called it quits after the sale of their previous business; but instead, they brought that same entrepreneur mentality and apply it now to the businesses we work with. Your dollars are our dollars. Your success is our success. #entrepreneurship #fractionalcmo #marketingsolutions

🎤 In our latest episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Paul Fernandez, the CEO and co-founder of The Growth Guys, a trailblazing company with a vision as ambitious as eradicating unemployment.   Paul took us through his #entrepreneurial journey, highlighting early challenges like establishing #credibility in a competitive industry. The game-changer for him was forging a partnership with an established authority in the field of #entrepreneurship, which proved to be a pivotal move for The Growth Guys.   We delved into how books such as "Oversubscribed" and "24 Assets" by Daniel Priestley played a crucial role in shaping Paul's approach to business. These reads offered him a blueprint for success, emphasising the importance of being prolific over perfect and the need to think long-term—planning for 1, 3, and 5 years ahead. 📚 The importance of continuous learning and being receptive to feedback was a discussion point we can all relate to. Paul's philosophy is all about learning from the best, working diligently on personal branding, and staying open to new ideas and critiques. 🏫 The Growth Guys' mission is not just about business growth but also societal impact, aiming to tackle unemployment head-on. Paul shared a resonating quote from Carrie Rose: "If you can't change the people, you need to change the people," highlighting the significance of surrounding yourself with the right team to achieve your objectives.   We wrapped up the episode with some powerful book recommendations for our listeners looking to scale their ventures and personal growth: "$100m Dollar Offers", "Lead Crafters", and "E Myth" by Michael Gerber.   This episode was a goldmine of insights for anyone looking to scale their business, enhance their personal brand, and make a meaningful impact in the world.
