My guest this week is none other than Paul Jarvis!

He’s built multiple online courses and products for his community and also hosted multiple podcasts, including the joint podcast with Jason Zook - ‘Invisible Office Hours’ which was one of my favorite podcasts ever.

He’s also now a fresh author of a book called Company of One (https://ofone.co/), which talks about the view that business growth isn’t always good, and isn’t always required. Paul is a solopreneur and remains happy staying this way.

In this conversation we get into his process and mindset when building a long-lasting, sustainable company of one, and creating consistent content for his audience.

We talk about what to do if you’re starting from scratch, getting audience, monetizing, why growth should be always questioned, and why you don’t need a tech startup to reach your dream.
