Podcast 38:25| Download | Stitcher | iTunes | Comment

Dan and Ian have spent many years on this show discussing the importance of surrounding yourself with supportive people who share the entrepreneurial vision that you have for your life.

Today's guest can attest to that.

Nate Ginsburg has built a successful Amazon business over the last two years, which he recently sold for just under a million dollars. He didn't do it alone, though.

On this week's show, you'll hear how a chance encounter in the rolling hills of Northern Thailand led Nate on a great entrepreneurial journey.

Listen to this week's show and learn:

  • Who inspired Nate to pursue entrepreneurship. (2:15)

  • How a meeting with a Mastermind group helped Nate find his way on Amazon. (10:44)

  • Why Nate decided to join up with a business partner. (20:01)

  • The circumstances that led to the sale of their business. (23:10)

  • Why it pays to surround yourself with the right people. (35:38)
