He’s grown up in our lifestyle entrepreneur family and was the special guest in episode #84 “Inside The Life Of An Entrepreneur’s Kid”.  But now, two years later as a college student, he’s determining how he wants to design his life, and this question is at the forefront of his mind.
At the end of this episode you will:
  1. What is a lifestyle entrepreneur? 
  2. How to engineer your offers so people always buy
  3. How to know if an open and close cart is really for you

 

Special Note: This episode was originally scheduled to be episode 242 and that's why you'll hear me reference that number during the episode. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, it's being released as episode 241. To find the show notes, just click this link.
