They taught you a lot of other things but not business. So great to get a primer on business, I would think."Jack on the ideal business to run while studying for an MBA: "It doesn't have to be the big, all or nothing hairy idea like you talked about. It can be something small that just makes a little bit of money and you just keep adding on to it."When an MBA might not make sense, says Jack: "It's not gonna be the end-all, be-all whether you do or don't do an MBA. If you're one to start a business and be entrepreneurial, [an] MBA is probably not the right track for you. Unless it's something like Clemson's MBA Entrepreneurship track." Follow Jack through the link below: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacksterling/ Connect with Noob School and John by visiting the following links:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnsterling1/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/johnsterlingsalesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/johnsterling_/Twitter: https://twitter.com/johnsterling_TikTok: https://twitter.com/johnsterling_Website: http://salestrainingfornoobs.com/
