Entrepreneurs And Coffee

First, I want to thank everybody who has sent in a question so far.  But I don’t just want to answer their questions. I want to answer YOUR questions.  I think after today’s episode, you’ll see that things don’t always have to be super serious on the Entrepreneurs and Coffee Friday Q&A.  To ask YOUR question, just go to EntrepreneursAndCoffee.com/ask. Super simple. Just go to entrepreneursandcoffee.com/ask and leave me a quick message. In today's episode, we'll be chatting about who inspires me (other than Pat Flynn; thanks for the call-out, Melissa!).

Interested in starting your own business on the side?  Let's chat! Willie Jackson is an amazing human being.  I’m not going to sugar coat it. The first time I heard Willie Jackson speak, I was blown away.  I was watching the film, I’m Fine Thanks and heard his story.  I started following him and the things he’s gone on to write and say are incredible.  He understands business and doing work that matters in a way that I think is truly incredible. I could spend 20 minutes writing and barely come up with things he says on the fly.  I expect this to be one of the most quotable chats we’ve ever had on the Entrepreneurs and Coffee podcast. I can say with full honesty and transparency that I feel that Willie Jackson has done and will continue to do amazing work in our lifetime and the insights you’ll get today, as well as on his blog, will be some of the best advice you’ll ever get on your path as an entrepreneur.   So before I run out of superlatives to describe him, let’s chat with our guest today, Willie Jackson.

I love the book Outliers, by Malcolm Gladwell.  I had the fortune of reading it for the first time on vacation with my wife and my parents.  I do most of my thinking and planning by getting away from my normal location and routine and this was no different.  You see, in Outliers, Gladwell says you can achieve maste

Heyo! Brendan Hufford back here again with a nice, hot, comically large cup of coffe joining you today on the Entrepreneurs and Coffee podcast. And I have to make a confession Today is not really an episode, but more of an ask. And that ask is just for you to check out entrepreneursandcoffee.com/ask. Today is the first ever Entrepreneurs and Coffee Q&A Friday where I’ll be answering *YOUR* questions on business, branding, marketing, coffee, and anything else I can help with. These episodes are going to be super freaking fun, but only if you (and I) don’t act the fool.   Well, I’ll probably still act the fool. It’s all the coffee. I can’t help it. Sound good? Rad. So here’s the best way to get on the show: Please keep your question under one minute in length. If you have a website and URL, you’re allowed to share it only once during the recording. For example: “Hi, my name is Phil Phillipson. I have a blog called Phil’s Brews at WatchPhilBrew.com. My question is…” Spammy, hateful, or if I just can’t unders

Interested in going from wantrepreneur to entrepreneur without quitting your job?  Let's chat! Today it’s just you and me grabbing coffee together. Since it’s only the first time we've grabbed coffee together here, just you and I, I want to share with you some stuff that I’m almost sure you've never heard of AND something that’ll make a radical difference for you in your life and business. And I want to give you examples from my business. You know, what it *actually* looks like. And I want to give credit where credit’s due. I am MASSIVELY inspired byBobby Kim of The Hundreds. You’ll hear me reference him again and again in our chats together and it’s because I consider him to be a mentor of sorts. We’ve met once, briefly, but he’s put out a ton of information for young entrepreneurs and what I’ll be sharing comes from his article at thehundreds.com called ‘The 10 Rules of Brand-Building.’ As a teacher, I know if I give a student too much, they won’t retain anything, and the same goes for my friends, like you.
