Howdy, Ags! Today, we have Samuel Smith, chief marketing officer, consultant, and podcaster! In this episode, Samuel shares with us the secret to overcoming challenges not only in his business endeavor but also life in general. Make sure to tune in and enjoy!
From I Can’t to How Can I
Bankrupt and an alcoholic at the age of 37, Samuel found his salvation from his mother’s tough love. Awakened by the sudden gesture of his mom, he decided to make changes and improve his way of life. He is now an in-demand video commercial creator, a consultant for companies to create, build, and scale internal media teams, and a host of the Small Business Surgeon podcast.
From an alcoholic to a successful business entrepreneur, Samuel owed it to shifting his mindset by saying “I can’t” to “How can I.”
