Building a Business Without Breaking

from The Playbook · host David Meltzer, Entrepreneur.com

In today’s episode, I talk with Ryan Angott, founder of TechLok Solutions, about the difference between being resourceful and being limited by scarcity. We explore how he scaled his computer accessory brand while navigating tariffs, supply chain shifts, and the realities of building a business with family. Ryan shares the story behind launching a Filipino staffing agency to support his vision and how years in enterprise sales shaped his approach to long-term growth. He opens up about the personal cost of early-stage entrepreneurship, the tension between ambition and presence at home, and how he’s found more clarity and balance through daily discipline.
