Fail Forward:
A very hard moment for me was when I found out that one of my best performing sales people was lying to me all the time on his reports and sales figures. That made me create the tracking app.
Lightbulb Moment:
A customer of mine called and mentioned that he needed an app to track his sales people. Interestingly enough at that very moment, I was working on a similar project. That was a very bright signal for me to continue forward with the project.
Success Hack:
My business should survive without me. Focus on working on your business versus in it.
Randomness Round:
What is your hidden talent? I am really creative, and I don’t talk about my ideas.
