Eight case studies… Over the last few years, we have been organizing multiple mastermind events for Langpreneurs. At these events we take a close look at our participants’ businesses and see how we can help them become more profitable and make a bigger impact in the world. These events usually take place in exotic places in Europe, but recently I’ve also been consulting dozens of Langpreneurs over Skype. In this episode, I’m going to share with you eight case studies of people we have worked with. If you are an (aspiring) Langpreneur, you will most likely relate to at least one of the following case studies so that you can implement similar strategies to the ones we’re going to share with you, and take your own language business to the next level as well. Let’s start with a few case studies of Langpreneurs who are just getting started or who are running a language business on the side. Later, we will also share case studies of people who were already very successful but were still leaving money on the table without even knowing it.
