Free Up Your Business: Delegating & Hiring with Connor Gillivan

Listen Later

To answer these questions and more, we’re joined by Connor Gillivan, author of Free Up Your Business: 50 Secrets to Bootstrap Million Dollar Companies, founder of FreeeUp.com, and a veteran ecommerce entrepreneur who has sold over $20 million on Amazon.
