The plunge is a backyard version of axe throwing where you throw plungers at a glossy board. The goal is to get the plunger to stick to ultimately earn points. I have spent $37,000 of my own personal money on the game. We tend to celebrate successes but never stop to recognize all of the failures that preceded the first big win for a founder.
Episode 07: Clock it. It’s time to lay The Plunge to rest. Alex Lieberman (@businessbarista) closes the books on the backyard plunger game. Any entrepreneur knows, it’s not easy making the tough decision to end a business. You end up questioning your ability, your confidence, and your vision. But Alex is here to walk you through all of it and why it shouldn’t discourage you from your next venture.
