Customer Reviews
Off to a great start!
Excellent first episode! Rob Walling is a great first guest, and Chris did a great job with the interview and his commentary. Well done, and I look forward to future episodes!
Great advice for anyone wanting to create products
The first episodes have already echoed many of the lessons I've learned, pointed out things I should be doing but am not, and surfaced new strategies for me to try.
Good stuff for entrepreneurs!
This is a must listen.
