S1E4 - Scalability Arrogance

I'm Mark and I've long had a love of both business and programming. I've run two moderately successful brick and mortar businesses, a failed tech startup and now a lifestyle business.

This podcast is inspired by what I've learned over the past several years making the transition into the tech industry, working at startups in Beijing, Silicon Valley and elsewhere and then building my own profitable side projects. Whether you're currently an employee at a tech startup, an aspiring digital nomad with an interest in tech or already running a small lifestyle business, you just may learn something that saves you a lot of time, money and pain in your journey.
