Podcast Episode 51: Crash & Learn with Zach Spuckler

Crash & Learns are where I interview an entrepreneur about a time that they probably don’t want to talk about – a total business failure.

This week, I’m talking to the Zach Spuckler, founder of Heart, Soul & Hustle, who had a major crash and learn moment you won’t want to miss hearing.

A lot of business owners just want to shortcut and know what’s working, but I love how Zach explains why it’s important to experiment with your business.

Listen in on Episode 51 and you’ll learn

  • How Zach became an entrepreneur at the age of 13!
  • Why you don’t want cheap leads
  • Learn what his first major crash and learn was
  • What is content indigestion?
  • Let your customers test your products and provide you with the lab results
  • What are emotional tentacles and why they need to be separated from data
  • How do you re-frame the way failure looks?

Join my Ready Aim Empire tribe to find incredible insights from other entrepreneurs and share your own takeaways!

With grit + gratitude,

Xo Lisé
