Welcome to the show ladies and gentlemen we are glad you are here with us today because we have another exciting guest we want to introduce. Liam Martin is joining us today! Liam is the founder of two 7-figure location independent businesses, staff.com, timedoctor.com. He is also the founder of the Running Remote conference that is held in Bali.

Liam hopped on the show with us and gave so much valuable content that we divided the interview into two podcast episodes, the second episode will be published next! On the show today, Liam discusses what it was like building two 7-figure businesses simultaneously with remote teams. We then start chatting about Liam's goal of getting on 120 podcasts in 120 days. Being that created 100 podcasts in 100 days we got into a great discussion about tactics we both used to make this happen. Later in the show, we discuss how Liam used these podcasts to build his conference. Make sure to check out this episode!
