Why to Get People Excited About What You're Doing (w/ Ian Jeffrey, CEO Breathe Life)

How different is building a business in Canada versus the Valley or New York? Today's episode with Ian Jeffrey, Founder & CEO at Breath Life tells a story of relishing these different perspectives: Competition for Talent and Money Sure there's more talent and investors in the valley, but the competition for those resources is fierce, Try retaining that deep experienced talent in the valley when they realize you're not the next Facebook, versus  Building a business with people who are attracted and committed to your vision and values, Customers and Profitability Building a business without any thought about profitability (valley), versus Building a business for actual paying customers, Timing Building a business far ahead of its time and hoping to sell-out, versus Building a business whose time is now and operating it profitably  These and more lessons of serial entrepreneurship applied to the wild lands of insurtech await you in this 12-minute downloadable podcast. .
