The Small Business Big Marketing Podcast with Tim Reid

332 - 19 year old high school dropout Chris Kelsey has a very refreshing take on how to grow a multi-million dollar business


Listen Later

High school dropout, Chris Kelsey, is 19 years old and started Appsitude, a San Francisco based app and web development company in December 2014 (when he was 17) that has made over $6 million in revenue so far this year.
Employing 60+ staff, he's also built many successful apps including Premium Wallpapers HD which received over 40 million downloads and did $8m revenue before it was sold in 2015.
Now you may be thinking, “What can I, the seasoned business owner, learn from a 19 year old?”
Strategies around attracting clients
The importance of thinking big
How he attracts A-players into his team
Plenty more
Plus I tackle a listener question about referencing death in their marketing, share a testimonial from a past attendee of my Philippines outsourcing tour, and I share some feedback from another listener (I have two!) who's been touched by the two recent Orange Sky episodes.
Let's get stuck right in!

  MY TOP 3 ATTENTION GRABBERS
Think big. Why do you have to wait a predetermined amount of time for something to happen?
Normalise big ideas. Then believe in them. Then act on them. Then make changes when they don’t entirely work out.
Ask this Killer Question - “What would my younger self do in this situation?” Or “How would my younger self approach the marketing of my business?”
