When was the last time you got yelled at by online influencer? Probably five minutes ago? Maybe, like us, you're tired of business advice that feels more like a pep rally than a real lesson. So why do so many online business gurus shout louder than they teach? And what you should actually pay attention to when building your business? This lesson is all about cutting through the noise. Omar breaks down why the world of online business gurus is full of extreme takes and empty promises, and what you need to focus on instead. You’ll learn why attention and certainty drive so much of the content out there, why most “one‑size‑fits‑all” advice is just performance, and how to filter the real, actionable fundamentals from all the hype. He also shares what makes a true teacher versus a performer, the importance of asking better questions, and why success is more about steady progress than quick wins. Smash, no wait.

The first and most important lesson for new entrepreneurs: don’t try to create the “perfect” product or service. Instead, start with an MVP — a Minimum Viable Product you can improve on. That’s how you find out for sure that your idea is worth investing more time and money in, while simultaneously building the foundation of your customer base. An MVP is a basic version of your product that’s good enough to get the job done, and lets you solicit valuable feedback for how to perfect it. It's all about smart resource management — sell a basic version, then let your product fund its own development.

Fortunately, we have some experience in this arena. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’re helping this listener keep calm — and keep their business on track.

Money is an emotion. While we like to think of wealth-building as a purely rational or strategic exercise, those who ignore the psychological component are at a disadvantage. Today’s Must-Read explores how your heart & soul — not just your profit & loss sheet — impacts your ability to thrive in business. The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel isn’t your average entrepreneurship guide. It serves up high-impact insights on personal and business finance in bite-sized chapters and everyday language. But it's not just about making money — it’s about understanding the deeply human factors that affect how we manage it: our life experiences, biases, fears, and attachments. No one (seriously, no one) does business with just their rational mind. Ever been baffled by someone else's business decision? Housel’s book sheds light on the mysteries, breaking down how our subjective perceptions of money guide our financial moves, and demonstrating that almost anyone can make money, even if they lack financial advantages. In other words, you don’t need a silver spoon; you just need the right mindset. Embrace the emotional side of business, and you’ll make more rational decisions. Dive into the psychology of money, and come out richer on the other side. Click Play! Discover all our must-read book reviews at https://100mba.net/bookreviews .

Business is a tightrope: lean too far in one direction, and you’ll fall. That’s why every entrepreneur has to carefully balance producing and developing their product against marketing and selling it. How do you know if you’re doing too much or too little of either? Without sufficient marketing and sales, funds dry up, and you can’t ensure your product meets peoples’ needs. But if you neglect product development in favor of marketing and sales, all the marketing and sales in the world won't save your business from an inferior offering. So how can you strike the right balance? Today, we dive into the dance between these two vital components. We'll share insights on how to ensure harmony between product development and sales, and offer tips on how to tell if your business needs to shift in one direction or the other. We'll explore how to allocate your time, money, and resources, and how your balance of priorities should change at different stages of your business growth. Plus, we’ll share a few ways to improve your efforts in both areas. Build a balanced business — Click Play!

Ready for new funding? You don’t have to take on a loan or an investor. There’s an option that straddles the line between both: debt financing, or, as its proponents like to call it, "non-dilutive" funding. Never heard of it? This is the episode for you.

Yet the goalposts of what defines wealth keep moving. So how do you actually become “wealthy”...whatever that means?

What’s the best venue for a productive retreat? Where your team or network gets together matters a ton — but with so many hotel alternatives available, is it smarter to go with a short-term rental? It’s Q&A Wednesday, and one listener needs to know. This fellow entrepreneur has a retreat to plan, and wonders whether an AirBnB or something like it is a smarter move than a full-on proper hotel. Fortunately, this is the right podcast to ask; Omar’s planned and executed several retreats over the years.

Can you have both money and a ton of free time? Is it actually realistic to build a business that generates multiple millions in annual profit, but doesn’t take more than 4 hours a day to run? Turns out, yeah. Today, Omar sits down for an extended interview with Steve Chou. Steve doesn’t work all that much, because he’d rather hang out with his kids. And who wouldn’t? But making that dream a reality took serious strategy, work, and a clear vision of his priorities. As the child of extraordinarily hardworking immigrants, Steve wanted the best for his own children too — but without having to sacrifice the amount of family time his own parents missed out on. So he and his wife started an ecommerce business. After a while (and a few tough but critical lessons), they achieved both financial success and the freedom to prioritize family.

Listen to this episode before your next interview! It's exciting to build a team. It’s a sign your business is growing, and you’re about to experience the joy of delegating tasks to specialists so you can focus on leadership. But hiring the wrong person can be costly. When you make a bad hire, it’s not as simple as having to find someone else. All the time, resources, and effort you put into that person is…gone. Forever.

In this episode, we’ll share the biggest, reddest flags that are almost always a sure sign you should move on to the next resume. Pro tip: skills can be taught. Attitude can’t.

If you're a new entrepreneur, the best way to start is by "bootstrapping" your first business: as in funding it with only your own resources, rather than getting a loan or outside investment. Why? Well, that’s exactly what we’ll get into in today’s episode. Truly seasoned entrepreneurs will tell you that your first business is not likely to be the one that brings you long-term success. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give it an honest try — but it’s more strategic to think of your first venture as (primarily) a way to develop your business skills. Real entrepreneurs don’t sink all their hopes, and other people’s money, into their first idea. Real entrepreneurs are agile. They learn and pivot. They fail until they figure out what works. It might be your second, third, or tenth idea that really breaks through! The fact is, taking outside investment creates unhelpful pressure. You'll be responsible for paying back loans or delivering an ROI, which can be incredibly stressful. But by bootstrapping, you'll have the freedom you need to succeed on your own terms. You'll also develop a sense of autonomy and self-reliance, which are crucial skills for any entrepreneur. Explore why bootstrapping your first business is the best approach, and get some tips and examples for how to pull it off. Until you know how to win, play with house money.

What makes a sales video convert? And what do you need to make it happen? The answer might surprise you — and cost less than you think, at least in strictly financial terms. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’ve got a listener who wants to sell their online course with a top-notch video pitch. But they need to know what tools are best for the job. Fortunately, we’ve been there. Many, many times. Today, we share what you really need to make a video do the trick, and what you don’t. The truth is, even if you have the fanciest equipment in the world, that doesn't guarantee conversions. Likewise, the right conceptual ingredients can make your video a winner with even a modest budget. It’s more about the process than the hardware. With examples from our own business (and some more famous campaigns), we’ll explore what’s proven to work.

No business leader can do it all. But here’s the good news: you don't have to! Today, learn why you should consider putting together a board of directors (even if your business is just getting started). Yes, this is something even new entrepreneurs should start thinking about. It might sound a little daunting or even corporate-y, but having a team of experts to help guide your decisions can make all the difference. Plus, it's a way to avoid "founder's syndrome," where you feel like you have to make every decision yourself, even if it's not your area of expertise. In business, nobody makes it on their own. And the more you “make it,” the more input you’ll need. In this episode, we'll walk you through all the reasons a board of directors can be valuable, and how to go about assembling one. We'll cover everything from figuring out what expertise you need on your board to how to approach potential members. Whether your business is new, scaling up, or still just an idea, it's always smart to think about what you'll do as the operation grows. Being a step ahead is always smart — Click Play!

Crazy thought: cold emails can work. Yeah, we didn’t think so either — until we realized how they work when you do it properly. All thanks to this week’s Must-Read for entrepreneurs! If you're like most people, you probably assume that cold emailing is a bad marketing strategy. It's too direct, too forward, too scammy, too annoying. Right? But what if you're wrong? What if cold emailing can actually do the trick? That's the premise of The Cold Email Manifesto by Alex Berman and Robert Indries . Omar chose this book specifically because he wanted to challenge his own assumptions about the efficacy of cold emails. And to his (pleasant) surprise, he learned more than he thought he would! Today, he shares key takeaways and explains how to approach cold emailing in a way that builds relationships — without pestering anyone. Short version: cold emailing is all about strategic intent. You have to be subtle, patient, and focused on building a connection. It's not about dropping unsolicited pitches and hoping for a response. It's about crafting a personalized message that speaks to the recipient's needs and interests. Then, you go from there. With this episode, you'll learn how it’s done.

Thinking about bringing interns into your business? Free labor has its upsides — but also its disadvantages. Even if you’re paying nothing, both parties in an internship need to get an ROI. So when do interns make sense? It all depends on what your business needs, and what role the intern is fulfilling. Some work, anyone can do. Other work requires the kind of skill, experience, or credentials that are always worth paying for. On top of that, no intern is truly “free” in the sense that your business will invest time and resources into them, even if it’s just to show them how to do the grunt work. And of course, an intern can always become a real-deal hire — but only if you approach it correctly. Today, we discuss where the internship opportunities might be in your business. If you’ve got a role that someone new to the game can grow into, internship may be a strategically sound option to give someone a way in.

It's tough to give your business your all. We're always juggling multiple projects, sometimes a day job, hobbies, and personal commitments. But if you're serious about your business, it's time to focus. So why do we struggle to go all-in? Most of us think it’s due to fear of risk, of putting all the eggs of our time and energy into the basket of one mission. But that’s not really it. The truth is, we’re not afraid, we’re just a little delusional. We think we can succeed at everything, all at once. But the truth is, we can't. It takes laser-sharp focus to make real progress in your own business. When we don't commit fully, we limit our potential for success. Fear and lack of confidence aren't the real culprits here. It's the misconception that we can do it all. Today, we explain why going all-in is essential, and share strategies to help you get there. Give your business the singular focus it deserves.

If nothing else, an entrepreneur needs to be a fighter. And who better to learn fighting from than Iron Mike himself, whose rise and fall (and rise again) is the perfect lesson in resilience and adaptability. No matter what business you’re in, this book is a knockout. Entrepreneurship is much like boxing; you have to fight through challenges, adapt to changing situations, be disciplined, and learn from potentially costly mistakes. Mike Tyson started with nothing, but invested in his abilities, trusted the right coaches, and took a few strategic risks. And it paid off huge! However, his downfall came when he lost humility, and — worse — stopped evolving. This is exactly how business works! Fortunately, Tyson ultimately bounced back through patience, work, and a willingness to start learning again. If Tyson can go from poverty to success, fail, and still find a way back, then your business plans aren't so far-fetched. Hear our review and takeaways from this super-inspiring autobiography.

Remote work isn’t going anywhere, especially for lean startups who want a big talent pool and low overhead. But for new entrepreneurs, it can be hard to know if you’re in touch with the team enough. Also, let’s admit it: most people hate meetings. Including the boss. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’ve got a listener with a small remote team who isn’t sure how often to bring the crew together (virtually, of course). As the CEO of a company with employees all over the world, Omar can relate. Talking in real time matters. Spoiler alert: there’s probably no such thing as meeting too often.

You might think “If only I had a coach…” And you’d be right — a good business coach can make a world of difference. But that’s only true if you hire the right coach for the moment you’re currently in. What do we mean by that? Well, different kinds of coaches can help you in different stages of your business. The person who gets you from A to B may not be the person who gets you from B to C. It all depends on where you and your business are in their development, growth, and potential. Get the wrong coach at the wrong time, and you’ll end up losing faith in coaching altogether. But nail the timing, and you’ll accelerate your growth. Today, Omar shares his view of the best time to get started with a coach, plus a few other key milestones on the journey where a coach can help you move to the next plateau.

Habits are the key to achieving anything. So which habit brings about growth for your business? It’s not meditation or drinking enough water (though those things don’t hurt). It’s something…unexpected. Except it’s totally expected. But not in the way you might think. It takes some explaining, ok? And this episode description isn’t the place to do it, for one because we don’t like these to be too long, and also because we really, really want you to listen to the episode. After all, Omar explains this stuff best. It’s his whole thing. All we can tell you here is that it works. People with consistent business growth month over month, year over year, do this every day. But too many people don’t do it — because it falls through the crack between habits that are too obvious, yet not obvious enough in how to implement. Does that make sense? If not, it will after you hear the episode. It’s a forehead-smacking, light-bulb realization that’s taken many a business to its next level. Why are you still reading this? Click Play!

Despite what you might’ve heard, ChatGPT isn’t here to end careers. Quite the opposite, really — it can help you start a whole new business, with less time and effort on your part. Today, we discuss how. We’re sharing five different ways you can fire up the AI and set it to work on services people need. You might ask yourself: why don’t these potential customers just use ChatGPT for themselves, instead of paying someone else? But that ignores a crucial fact: AI doesn’t work alone. Like any other piece of software, ChatGPT only works well if the person using it knows what they’re doing. Yes, a car can get you places faster than a horse. But cars need drivers! That’s how AI works, and ChatGPT is no exception. If you can master the skills necessary to get ChatGPT to take care of people’s needs, you become valuable. Learn what ChatGPT can do in the right hands, and how it can be the start of a whole new venture for you. Click Play!

There are lots of ways to make money on your own. But one of the most reliable (and least risky) is the agency business. Today, we discuss what that is, and why it’s such a great option. Long story short, it’s about as low-risk, high-reward as independent businesses get. By providing a service like design or copy or multimedia, you can almost guarantee that if your work is up to snuff, you’ll always be able to find clients. Even if you start as a solopreneur with just a single client, you can leverage every successful project into future work. Best of all, you can keep yourself in profit the whole time, by taking things one project at a time. Today, we dive into the ins and outs of agency work, with examples that show just how smart this path to independent success is. We’ll explore different types of agencies, recommend the best and most cost-efficient tools you’ll need, and discuss what kinds of clients offer the most dependable recurring revenue. If you have talent, but aren’t quite sure how to turn it into a business, consider an agency — and start by listening to this episode. Click Play!

So you’re starting a business, and you’ll need some outside investment to really make it work. Where to seek funding is one problem — but just as important is when to seek funding. Timing is everything when you’re asking for money! No matter who the funding source is, you’ll have to convince them that you’re a good investment. And you can’t do that until you’ve gathered enough hard evidence that your product, systems, and team are viable. And that takes time. But how much? It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’re helping one listener figure out when to start shopping for funding. By getting the timing right, you can not only increase your odds of hearing a “yes,” you can actually create more favorable terms.

Yes, even startups and small businesses can have incredible team retreats. In fact, it’s more fun with a smaller, tight-knit team — especially when that team is remote and doesn’t get much face-time. Of course, not everything will go perfectly. Today, we share lessons learned from our most recent team getaway. We invited our engineering, marketing, design, and other pros from around the globe to finally see each other in person, having lost that opportunity to COVID for so many years. And it was awesome…except when it wasn’t. If you’re considering bringing your team on a retreat (and you should), listen to this episode first. You’ll learn what can go sideways, as well as what makes a retreat a truly memorable bonding experience. Whether you’re looking to give your team some R&R, accomplish some work goals that are better achieved in person, or some combination of both, a great retreat can’t be beat.

How much time do you really have? It’s easy to say “life is short.” But if you really look closely at the numbers, it’s shorter than you might realize. And all the “productivity” in the world can’t change that. That’s the premise of today’s Must-Read book for entrepreneurs: Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman . Yep, that’s about how many weeks most people (in industrialized nations) get before they kick the bucket. Much of it is already gone by the time most of us decide to start a business! Mountains of advice and products are designed to increase productivity, and promise a way to get more out of every precious week. But what if this approach is all wrong? What if the key isn’t trying to do more, but in embracing mortality and focusing on what matters? How much do you really need to “get done”...before life is done? It’s a challenging, scary fact to confront. But it’s a fact nonetheless, and being mindful of it can change the way you approach building your business. It’s too easy to get lost in the “to do’s,” as your 4,000 weeks slip by. Get a fresh, more brave perspective on constructing your own life and work.

You’ve launched — but your business just can’t seem to get anywhere. Why? What makes some businesses grow steadily (or suddenly), while others just get stuck on the ol’ hamster wheel? Today, we diagnose the problem. In this episode, we’ll explore what exactly creates that all-important traction, and allows new companies to reach “escape velocity,” a.k.a. the point at which you break through the invisible barrier, and your expenditure of energy isn’t the only thing moving you forward. Y’know…like a rocketship. It’s the difference between pushing the boulder uphill, and simply guiding it while it rolls downhill. Need another analogy? No, you don’t! What you need are actionable strategies to get your new business its first few wins, so success becomes a self-perpetuating cycle. Long story short, it comes down to concentration and focus. Applied strategically and consistently for a certain amount of time, your business will develop some momentum. Then, the fun begins. Click Play!

If you think the sky’s the limit, you’re forgetting what’s beyond the sky. Too often, entrepreneurs are held back not by market forces or competition, but by self-limiting beliefs. So how big can you really go? And how do you define “big” anyway? This episode isn’t a hollow pep talk. It’s about realizing that when you create your own future by starting your own business, you get to decide for yourself what’s possible. With real-world examples, we’ll explain how no matter how small you start, success can compound. This applies to our own business, too. It’s not that you have to set unrealistic goals or risk losing a good thing to shoot for a great thing. But if you stay open to incredible, seriously life-changing possibilities, you’ll ensure that your business doesn’t underachieve. Learn how to think bigger, and why you should. Click Play!

For new and small businesses, every cent you spend on employee compensation counts. So are you getting more bang for your buck when you hire part-time, or full-time? The answer — as is often the case in business — depends. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’re helping a listener with a growing business spend his payroll dollars wisely. They know they need to build a team in order to reach the next level, but the budget requires some tough choices. Where’s the most value for money? Hint: it has more to do with how the employee works than how much. Learn what factors you should consider when choosing between full and part-time hires.

Stress is like an anchor. It weighs you down, and holds you back. It does the same to your business, as stress makes you a less effective and efficient leader. So what can you do about it? And by the way, we’re not talking about big stress, like you get in response to a rare crisis or major catastrophe. We’re talking about the basic, everyday stresses that any entrepreneur experiences, no matter how well their business does. It’s simply unavoidable: things will not always go your way. With the stakes high, that means basic stress management isn’t a luxury. It’s a priority. Today, we share the most common forms of everyday business stress — and how to deal with each. Learn what most often induces low-grade stress, and the simple practices that help you get better at navigating it. Developing resilience is like developing strength or stamina or any other ability. You have to put in a little work every day. Fortunately, everyday stress will give you that opportunity. Learn how to take advantage of it, and become a better emotionally equipped entrepreneur.

If you need proof that a self-funded, bootstrapping startup can make it big — with no special advantages or even extraordinary luck — this is the episode for you. Creator-focused email marketing software ConvertKit is the company. College dropout Nathan Barry is the founder. And his story will erase any doubts you have about your own business potential. Omar and Nathan go way back, to a time before both had achieved real escape velocity with their SaaS products. In today’s extended conversation, they reflect on the journey from there to here, and what allowed Nathan to turn a side project into a multi-million dollar company. From his rural home-schooled childhood to his early exit (for good reasons) from higher education, Nathan learned very early how much our destinies are really within our control. Because of that, he was able to take his own, much shorter path to success. It’s enough to make you wonder why everyone doesn’t cut their own path — until you hear how challenging the independent road can be. Learn how the freedom of entrepreneurship is a double-edged sword, and what it takes to make it on your own. This interview is full of priceless lessons for anyone wondering what’s truly possible.

It’s time to start hiring. Every once in a while, the stars align to make great talent more available and accessible to small businesses. And you don’t need the world’s biggest budget to get the best hires. Sometimes, it’s all about timing. A few forces have come to bear on the jobs market. Yes, unemployment is low — but it’s not in the freefall it’s been in since 2010 or so. Yes, we just went through the “Great Resignation” — but many who resigned didn’t land the job of their dreams (or any job at all). Yes, there’s inflation — but salary really isn’t everything. Today, we explain why this year is a golden moment for picking up new team members. If your company offers the right mix of decent pay, positive culture, flexibility, and work/life balance, there are probably some ace hires out there waiting for someone like you. Whether the jobs market actually contracts in the near term isn’t clear — but there is un-and-under-employed talent out there.

After all, Apple was a startup once, too. Today, we break down a few key things that Apple has always done well. From the way they create their products to the way they market, Apple cut a new path through tech. Their strategies aren’t just for fancy phones, though!

Today, we aim to help you do exactly that. Learn what made Apple such a breakthrough company, and how its approach to entrepreneurship has never stopped working.

Setting your first price for your first product can feel…scary. But most new entrepreneurs err on the wrong side of the equation, undervaluing their product or service in a way that can backfire — badly. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’ve got a listener with a new software product. But what should it cost? A common misconception is that the lowest price will attract the most customers. However, this strategy isn’t sustainable in the long run, because it limits the revenue you can invest in making your product even more awesome. The question isn’t “What are consumers willing to part with?” It’s “How valuable are the benefits my product provides?” Put a number on that, and don’t sell yourself (or your company) short! Ultimately, setting the right price requires some research and analysis of how much money, time, and effort you’re saving the customer. But just as importantly, it requires the right attitude. Don’t be afraid to charge what you’re worth! Hear our advice, and consider it next time you look at your own price tags. Click Play! To submit your questions, visit 100mba.net/q .

A personal touch can set your business apart — even when there’s no chance you’ll be able to do it for everyone. So why do new businesses avoid strategies that don’t scale…even while they’re still small? Sometimes, there’s a such thing as being too efficient, even in business. It’s the inverse of the old saying, “What got you here won’t get you there.” Of course you’ll have to evolve your strategies when your business gets bigger — but while it’s still young, you can afford to go above and beyond, even if it’s just for a few people. …and the results are worth it. Today, we discuss a few things you can do as a small business that don’t multiply well. However, the impact of these meaningful (but highly inefficient) moves can be monumental, and position your company to grow. Worry about scaling when it’s time to scale. While you’re still making a name for yourself, go the extra mile. It’ll pay off, and set you up to worry about how to get “there” when the time is right. Click Play!
