Famous Entrepreneurs: Why You Need To Pay Attention

What’s going on everyone? Hope all is well! So it’s been one whole week since my last post about the most important day of my life. If you haven’t read the post yet, I encourage you to read it as my wife and I just had our first baby on April 23rd.

So now we roll into Phase Two of Successfool.com. Famous Entrepreneurs. Yup that’s right, famous entrepreneurs. As you know in Phase One, we interviewed a lot of Top Entrepreneurs on their “story” of success and how you can learn how to become and entrepreneur.

You can check out the top entrepreneurs interviews here:

Justin Brooke
Paulie Sabol
David Wilkinson
Jason Henderson
Jeff Mills

In Phase Two, I’ll be profiling the Entrepreneurs that have paved the way and are continue to pave the way for our success. This is really exciting for me as I understand the tremendous privilege that we have to learn how to become an entrepreneur from those that have failed, those that have been thought of as foolish, those that have invested millions into becoming successful.

We can learn so much from these famous entrepreneurs and take ideas and principles that they lived by and apply them to our business models. It’s almost like having the best mentor’s possible!

So the way it’s going to work is like this:

I’ll take polls by comments here and use Twitter to figure out who YOU want me to profile. Keep in mind, I’m talking about folks like, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Donald Trump (one’s that are actually famous). I will then profile famous entrepreneurs about their “story” of success and even talk about their failures. After the profiling article, I’ll write 2-3 follow up lesson’s that we can all learn from these entrepreneurs.

Make sense? Cool!

So tell me, what famous entrepreneur would YOU like to see profiled?

    hmmmmm, that’s a great question. Well, how about Chris Wyatt. He is the founder and CEO of GodTube.com. I think he has paved the way for Christian niched site online. I am also looking at starting a larger Christian niched .com and would love to hear his story.

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Hey my Sac-town brother, it’s your Sea-town brother…I’ve got two of them for you. One is (he’s one of your Tweets) from the network marketing point of view.

    And the second one is , the original Internet relationshipper through IM’s.

    In my opinion, both of them would be great for you to have on SuccessFool.com to help others get their education on.
