Google PodcastsNowadays everyone seems to be an “entrepreneur” and the internet and social media channels are full of so called experts and business coaches dishing out mediocre advice and over-priced coaching.
Which is why this conversation with Dodge Woodall was so refreshing (and has to be one of my personal favourite episodes so far). Dodge is a natural-born entrepreneur with a flair for spotting opportunities, finding new categories (niches) and creating win-win situations. A real people person with a confident, easy-going nature, Dodge has a knack for peppering his business stories with streetwise life advice and down-to-earth philosophy that makes so much sense. From growing up over a busy London pub and flogging tickets, ice creams, hotdogs and unwanted toys for cash aged 10, to running over 1500 student nightclub events in the 90’s and 00’s, Dodge is a business pioneer who loves to create unbeatable experiences for his customers.
In this highly enjoyable conversation we cover:
- How Dodge’s unconventional upbringing taught him the game of business
- How to recognise your strengths and double down on them
- How Dodge pioneered the concept of student night events nationwide
- Upping his game to create the world’s first music and sport festival and nearly losing his house in the process
- Dodge’s advice if you want to leave your 9-5 and start your own business
- And so much more
Even though I’ve been an entrepreneur for over 2o years, I absolutely loved this conversation with Dodge, and learned a lot. And when I listened for a second time to crate the show notes, I felt just as fired up as the first time round!
So a huge thanks to Dodge for his time and dropping his business knowledge and I encourage you to listen to and share this episode as it might just change your life.
