#15 - Entrepreneurship with Daniël Wijnroks


Listen Later

In this episode, we will be listening to Daniël Wijnroks, a 24-year-old entrepreneur, talks about his upbringing in the Netherlands and his exposure to both Portuguese and Dutch cultures. He discovered entrepreneurship at the age of 12 when he saw wealthy yacht owners and decided to create his own way of making money, which he monetized and made a couple hundred per month (at the age of 12!). 


He later founded his own company called Place of Performance, which has three labels, including OPA, an Online Performance Agency that helps businesses grow through online marketing.


Throughout Daniël’s experience with running a business, he emphasizes the importance of balancing urgent and important work and highlights the significance of monitoring KPIs, especially for sales and customer happiness, to ensure growth. 


He also talks about the importance of daily routines, such as stand-ups, to improve communication and productivity with his team. 


In the early stages of his company, Daniël has experienced that the founder has to wear multiple hats, including finance controller, acquisitions, content writer, and personal growth leader. However, having a team is the most important aspect for success due to the fact that the founder can only do so much and has the ability to share their vision with the team which allows them to work together to achieve their goals and grow together.


To wrap it up, Daniël and I discuss the importance of belief in oneself, the benefits of having a coach/mentor who can guide you by asking questions, and the importance of good marketing in running a successful business. 


Daniël truly believes that entrepreneurship is about visualizing and communicating that vision to a team of enthusiastic people to get everyone on the same page. 


And last but not least, we discuss the importance of love and guidance in developing confidence and reaching your potential.


To this day, Daniël is working hard in giving people the energy to grow so that everyone can reach their full potential. A true inspiration.
