126: Teaching others helps Patrick Kmieciak sharpen his business skills [podcast]

Patrick Kmieciak started tutoring when he was in college after a friend said that he was going to do it. A friendly competition arose between the two to see who could do it fastest. Patrick ended up winning and he helped his first client go from failing at mid-terms to getting a C+ and being able to graduate. Patrick was even invited to her graduation party! In this episode, Patrick and I talk about how his tutoring keeps everything fresh, so it helps him understand business better and directly helped him pass the CPA Exam with such a high score to get the Elijah Watt Sells Award. It also helps him understand how best to communicate with others. And whether he's in the office or he's tutoring students, he's found that, "People like people with a personality and some sort of uniqueness about them."
