Welcome back to Start It or Scrap It! In Episode 38, Mike and Gummi tackle one of the biggest lies in entrepreneurship: “overnight success.”
From flashy social media claims to misleading business coaches, we break down what it really takes to build a sustainable business. Along the way, we dive into:
- Why “overnight success” is a dangerous myth
- The rare exceptions (and why they’re almost impossible to replicate)
- Why a good assistant or CRM system can save you thousands in lost revenue
- How to know when to say “no” to a client (and why it’ll save your sanity)
- The truth about side hustles, failures, and what real success looks like
- How social media hype skews entrepreneurs’ expectations
This episode is packed with real talk for founders who are tired of get-rich-quick hype and want the unvarnished truth about what it takes to grow.
