Travis Makes Money 519: Mike Ashabi | The Up and Comer; The Beginning of the Journey
Mike Ashabi is a man who knows what it is to come from absolute rock bottom to becoming an up and coming financial success! Mike is the Founder and CEO of True Life Ventures, a coaching and consultation experience where he helps people find out HOW to gain results in business rather than just WHAT gains those results. With several years in sales and marketing under his belt, Mike has been one of the coaching pioneers that get clients on a path to scale and sustain their business with strategies that bring in growth and ultimately success.
I’m so interested to get into Mike’s head and take a look at what the journey was like for him to become that Up and Comer.
