As a serial direct response “bootstrap” entrepreneur, I’ve started a plethora of businesses on my kitchen table. With nothing more than a yellow pad, a blue pen and the squishy gray matter between my ears.
Many of these “kitchen table businesses” have supported me with a lifestyle that would be envied by the most successful CEOs in the country.
Several were created under great financial duress… with nothing but spit, grit and duct tape. I was broke, my back was against the wall and the wolf was at the door. So I was FORCED to run my idea up the flagpole to see how many people would salute it with their wallets.
Sure I’ve had my share of failures. That’s par for the course in the life of a serial entrepreneur.
But several of these “ready-fire-aim” businesses have gone on to make millions.
I’ve sold a couple of my info businesses for big paydays. I’ve also sold three nutritional supplement businesses I started from my kitchen table. That allowed me to enjoy several multi-year stints of “mini retirement.”
I’ve also been hired by some of the most successful entrepreneurs and marketers in the country. Most recently, a $1 BILLION a year “800 lb. gorilla” direct marketing company — one the biggest and most successful in the world — hired me to launch their new nutritional supplement business.
But believe me… I didn’t have any advantages getting started as an entrepreneur. I’m an average guy who barely made it through Barberton High School in Ohio.
I picked the wrong parents so there was no million-dollar trust fund or rich uncle to help fund my entrepreneurial pursuits. In fact, to describe my upbringing as “lower middle class” is being overly generous.
Like I said… the ONLY things I had available to start all these businesses were a yellow notepad, blue pen and my somewhat eccentric brain.
My first 10 years as an entrepreneur…
