E242: Finding Alignment in Partnerships with Brian Littlefield
If you haven’t leveraged the power of partnerships in business yet, then you probably don’t know how to do it, or you’re just scared things won’t get aligned at some point.
The secret to a successful business partnership? Make sure you detach from your ego and you lean into each other’s superpowers, especially when there are three alpha males involved – such as the co-founders of supplement company Jocko Fuel.
In this episode, Erik speaks with Brian Littlefield, the Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder of Jocko Fuel. Brian is the "mad scientist" who pushes the limits on what's possible when it comes to clean ingredients and a balanced holistic approach pertaining to diet and healthy products.
Listen in as Brian shares his early beginnings, how he found himself in a successful partnership with Pete Roberts and Jocko Willink, and how they’re leveraging the power of trifecta in their business.
Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:
Episode Highlights:
[06:19] What Are Nutraceuticals?
Nutraceuticals are supplements promoted as having a medicinal or health benefit that isn't a pharmaceutical. Over the last 10 and 20 years, people have been looking for natural alternatives to lifetime prescription medications, which only serve as a band-aid. The nutraceutical world is an emerging market today when it comes to improving cognition.
[27:55] Leaning on Each Other’s Superpowers to Make a Partnership Rise
It doesn't matter who you are, there's always going to be ego involved in the business. But at the end of the day, if you want a business partnership to succeed, you have to make sure you stay aligned with each other.
There’s always going to be an imbalance and disagreements at some point, especially when you’re merging brands. There are always going to be some ups and downs. But there is nothing that can’t be solved through good and clear communication.
Hence, it’s important that you keep your ego in check and detach from it. Understand that you may not be able to see all the aspects of what’s going on, so learn to listen to what your partners have to say. Instead of putting each other in a box, learn to lean on each other’s superpowers.
