Welcome to the Founderholic podcast! I’m Chris Folayan, and today we’re diving into a concept that may surprise you—why ignorance is key to growing a successful business. We’ve all heard the saying, “the customer is always right,” and by now, you’ve probably realized that’s not always the case. But here’s the twist: the business isn’t always right either.
