Listen now
Description
How does a former professional football player turned young entrepreneur help grow a new fashion label to 7-figures in under 12 months? The quick answer? By taking the lessons he's learned from his business coach. Sounds simple, but Jye Bohm, the Director of PROFINISH and Director of Front Runner, will tell you otherwise. With a 6 year journey in business with half of it working with The Entourage's coaches, Jye has been able to grow PROFINISH Fire Protection & Coatings from $1.5 million to $20 million, AND help childhood friend, Tim Hanly, accelerate the growth of new startup and Aussie fashion label, Front Runner, too. But it wasn't easy. From doing nearly everything in business, working more hours despite hiring new staff, and feeling like a jack of all trades but master of none, Jye shares his journey of overcoming challenges like these to becoming a more seasoned entrepreneur, and how you can too. This 'Making It Happen with Members' bonus episode of The Make It Happen Show dives into the common setbacks many startups and small businesses face, how you can avoid them, and elevate to the next level.
