Compartir episodio:Descargar

Descripción del Episodio

John Paul DeJoria launched his startup, Paul Mitchell, with just $700 after his investor pulled out, leaving him to convince skeptical suppliers, distributors, and clients to trust an unproven brand. Raised in poverty and hardened by years of door-to-door sales, he had already learned to expect rejection and push forward. That persistence eventually helped him build two billion-dollar businesses. In this “lost files” episode, the first recording of an episode published earlier this year, John Paul shares the business lessons he learned throughout his entrepreneurial journey and explains why he believes “success unshared is failure.”

In this episode, Hala and John will discuss:
