The Bootstrapped Founder
Expressing Gratitude for a Valuable and Insightful Podcast Episode
The chapter focuses on the speaker expressing deep gratitude for the podcast host's content, highlighting the exciting and insightful nature of the episodes. The guest participant is thanked for their valuable input, and the host is praised for creating a platform for learning and self-discovery.
Yong-Soo Chung (@yongsoochung) is a champion of the Personal Holding Company: he owns several businesses, a media company, eCommerce, and a service provider among them. How does one stay sane with that much work in such diverse fields? He shares his survival framework and much more on the show today.
I talk to Yong-Soo about hiring the right people to operate your business once it's outgrown you, if he would ever sell his money-making assets, and just how important it is to have your own distinct voice in a world full of best practices.
Looking to hire an operator for your business? Start a few more companies? Become better at juggling multiple hats? This one is for you!
