Ep 236-How One Multi-Millionaire Built His Empire with Bryan Jackson
4 years ago, I quit my day-job cold turkey to pursue my dream of going full-time into entrepreneurship.
The first thing I did was start knocking door-to-door to sell solar.
One of the people that made that opportunity possible was a guy named Bryan Jackson—the founder of Solcius, the solar company I was partnered with.
On today’s show, we talk how Bryan went from starting a company where he was so poor that he rode his bicycle to work—45 miles each way!—to building one of the largest installers of solar in all of the US.
It’s a purely awesome entrepreneurial conversation. I hope you enjoy!
