Barry Hearn: Infamous Promoter & Old School Entrepreneur | 800th Podcast Special

May 1, 2022
46:23

The biggest sports promoter in the world, the legend, that is Barry Hearn talks with Rob and takes questions in this live Q&A episode

Barry shares some shrewd observations about life, business and sport and explains how everyone is brilliant at something but many don’t ever find out what it is  because of time, opportunity or entrepreneurial risk-taking

He explains why you must have complete belief in yourself if you want others to believe in you and how you can win if you treat business as a game and approach it in the same way as sport with discipline, dedication, and work

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • It’s important in life to understand yourself, who you are and what you really want
  • The truth is a commodity that’s becoming rarer and rarer in our society
  • I  believe in profitability and sustainability over profitability, the two are interconnected
  • The secret of productivity is starting an hour earlier and finishing an hour later
  • We are all governed by our early influences
  • You need to find a way to get noticed, stand out and be remembered
  • I only get involved with sports I’m passionate about, you can’t do a good job unless it’s something you care about
  • People sacrifice their life to be good at sport and they do it in a way that entertains us. My obligation is to make sure their life changes through sport because of what they’ve committed to and put into it
  • If people go into business with the same attitude as those who go into sport they can be successful
  • In sport to be good, we get the basics right, we put in the work, dedication,  
  • You have to treat it like a game and want to win
  • Using the sporting concept business is about winning and learning from losing, you won’t win every time, you just need to win more than you lose
