Evan Carmichael: Avoiding the Biggest Mistakes Entrepreneurs Make
One of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make is picking the wrong business. It's crucial to find something you truly love and enjoy the process of doing. Don't just chase opportunities, find a need and solve it with passion.In this episode of the Perfectly Mentored Podcast, Jason discusses the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make and how to fix them. He starts by emphasizing the importance of choosing the right business and not just chasing opportunities. Entrepreneurs should find a need and genuinely enjoy solving it. Jason warns against starting a business simply because it's on a "top businesses to start" list, using the example of podcasting. While it may be a popular strategy, it won't work unless the entrepreneur truly enjoys having conversations and engaging with people. He emphasizes that successful entrepreneurs love the process and the work itself, not just the results. Many entrepreneurs make the mistake of only focusing on the opportunity and the money, rather than the work itself. Jason concludes by highlighting the importance of making money in business, even for charities, as it allows them to make a greater impact.Topics Covered:Picking the wrong business. [00:19] Growing a YouTube audience. [04:48] Expecting to be great. [06:10] Based off of keywords. [09:20] Am I too late? [13:15] Ways to grow your business.
