Today I’m excited to welcome Josh Haynam to The Quarter Life Comeback podcast.

Josh Haynam is an entrepreneur and founder of Interact, an online tool for creating engaging quizzes that generate email leads.

Having started his first company at age 15 installing lawns, Josh got addicted to entrepreneurship and the idea of creating something out of nothing, including everything from pitching clients, getting business, and creating value.

After running several businesses throughout high school and college, Josh and his friend landed on the idea for Interact in their junior year. However, they were too early in the market and the first 3 years of running the company was a struggle.

Despite these challenging times, Josh never gave up hope, knowing that his idea worked and if they could just stay alive then at some point people would catch on.

They did. Halfway through 2017, they’ve doubled their customers and are on track to double them again by the end of the year.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

• The biggest challenge faced by new entrepreneurs (and how to handle it)
• 2 steps to land your first client when you don’t have a track record yet
• How to know if it’s time to quit or to keep going
• How to use entrepreneurship to enhance your life, not compromise it
• What to do when you don’t know where to start
• How to choose between multiple ideas
• The true key to success (it’s not talent or skills)
