Customer Reviews
Excited to get started
Great first podcast- I can't wait to get more from the series. I like that it gave me specific info on getting a business started from the ground up. I have started businesses before and I wish I had had all of this information in one place. This podcast also gets me excited to start my next venture (or next 10 ventures!!!)
START IT UP WITH START UP DADDY!
This guy is a phenom when it comes to having kids and running a business. Look no further if you have kids and want to run a massively successful business! Start it UP with START UP DADDY!
Excellent Podcast (and website)
Can't wait for the next one. I'm in the process of trying to get an eCommerce site started and these podcasts are providing some very useful information. As Ian says in the one podcast, I have a million ideas floating around in my head and trying to organize it is proving to be a feat in itself. I guess my next step will be to invest in the book that Ian recommended, "Getting Things Done" :-) Keep'em coming. Thanks.
