#1523 How Steve Sims built a business on being likeable
Today’s guest is a little bit different. He’s not a tech entrepreneur. He didn’t build his company in his dorm room.
He had kind of a winding road to get here, and the reason that I’m having him on is I think this story is going to be useful for you, but also I’m just freaking fascinated by the guy.
He has a kind of personality that makes you just like him. I know that seems kind of like wishy washy and dorky, but we shared a cab on the way back to a hotel and I just said, “I dig this guy. I really just like him.” And I said, “I want to know how he’s so freaking likable,” and so that’s what this interview is about.
Steve Sims is the founder of Bluefish, is a concierge service for VIPs and executives who want luxury and adventure.
