Today’s episode is part of my series ‘Where are they now’ to check up on how some of my past guests are getting on and how sometimes the best laid plans can go differently.
Neil Bearden was a guest on the show back in Nov 2020 on episode 4 titled ‘The True Power of your story’ and if you haven’t listented to it yet, I highly recommend you do, because it is the most downloaded episode. Neil shared his unusual career story that led him to become a tenured professor at one of the world’s leading business schools and then simultaneously starting his own company. Since then, he left that tenured role, moved continents from living in Singapore to building a house in the woods in North Carolina and going full in with his business. And today we’re going to talk about how this journey has been.
In this episode, among many cool things, we talk about:
- 2021 and taking that proverbial leap. As a former professor of Decision Sciences, how did Neil make that decision. Rational, pro con list, or with gut and feeling?
- State of Neil's business. Did clients come beating down his door and threw their credit card at him? Expectation vs reality
- Who is Neil's client niche and his favourite kind of clients? How does he know they’re going to be successful?
- How does Neil get noticed?
