From James: For the past 10 years, I have been dying for this guy to write a book. I think I've told him at least once a year, "Write a book already. You have so much interesting knowledge!"
I still remember when he first came to my podcast in 2014, he gave me advice. I still do it to this day. And we talk about "The Coffee Challenge", as he calls it. And then he gave me more advice that I'm sure 10 years from now, I'm still going to be doing.
So he just came out with Million Dollar Weekend: Noah Kagan. He was like the 12th employee at Facebook and the fourth employee at Mint, and he was fired from both places. He's had an incredible entrepreneurial journey but loves these challenges and experiments.
You just got to listen to him talk!
Episode Description:
Join Noah Kagan, the creator of AppSumo and former employee at Facebook and Mint, in a straightforward talk about transforming fear into action and modest goals into profitable businesses. Drawing on insights from his book 'Million Dollar Weekend,' Kagan will discuss his experiences in starting and growing successful companies. He'll explain the 'coffee challenge' and his approach to the 'dollar challenge,' offering practical advice on developing and testing business ideas, focusing on customer needs, and measuring success by customer profits instead of just invested funds. Kagan will share stories from his diverse background, including playing chess with actor Jamie Foxx, to motivate you to face the fear of rejection and the uncertainty of starting something new. He'll emphasize the importance of consistent hard work, resilience, and learning from failures for entrepreneurial success.
