Ambition and Grit

How to Avoid Failing in the First 5 Years of Your Business


Listen Later

50% of small businesses fail within the first five years. Founder of RE/MAX and real estate titan Dave Liniger has over 50 years of experience in growing, managing, and investing in business. Though the first two years of RE/MAX threatened to defeat him in his goal of improving the lives of real estate agents nationwide, he persevered through the challenges and revolutionized the industry. He encourages founders to make sure they have the capital backing needed to support the business through natural ups and downs of the first few years. And most importantly, those trying to build a business from the ground up should always keep their vision at the forefront of every decision. Being a young man himself in the early days of his company, he especially supports young adults in their endeavors to pursue a dream, however big or small it may be. With enough confidence, enthusiasm, and a community of like-minded individuals surrounding you, your business can avoid the pitfalls that many encounter in the early stages of an organization.
