Episode 1: Getting Business Ideas Through Proactive Action

TripLingo co-founder and CEO Jesse Maddox didn’t always plan on being an entrepreneur. After his childhood dreams of playing in the NBA were shattered, he spent 10 years on the path to becoming a lawyer. But along the way, he kept discovering entrepreneurial ideas. He started his first business in college, and then a second, and the ideas kept coming. Those experiences starting businesses led him down an unexpected path, but by taking proactive action every step of the way his experiences led to exciting new ideas and possibilities.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • How to generate ideas from problems in your life
  • What to do when an idea just isn’t working
  • Why picking the right industry matters
