In June, podcast host Seb Francis featured on the Venturi Podcast speaking about the '3 things I’ve learned from starting a business'.    Venturi are an incredibly innovative company that help with tech recruitment. You can find out more about Venturi here.    Here is what they wrote about the episode -      Sebastian is the co-founder and director of Titus Learning.   As the co-founder of Titus Learning Sebastian has always championed e-learning and alternate educational routes. After a brief stint at university, he found he worked best when engaging in ‘non-traditional’ educational avenues. This realisation saw him set up Titus Learning to bring the advantages of e-learning courses to as many people as possible.           Key points covered in this show include:   How e-learning is disrupting the ‘traditional’ education sectors How can we create a tech curriculum that can adapt to the pace of change of technology     Seb's three lessons    These are the three key lessons Seb learned when running his own company:   Hire Quicker / hire more   ‘I would have hired quicker and hired more people if I could have done. There were times where I was probably too cautious. I had cash sat there and I thought I could get people in but said ‘lets hold off until we’ve got to X point’. That point may never come, so hire people when you believe it is right too. The real turning point for my business was when I started hiring and getting more people onboard.’         Make sure what you're doing is affecting your companies bottom line   ‘You need to make sure everything you’re doing is positively affecting your businesses bottom line. You might go through a good few months of sales and be tempted to shift your focus on to an untested idea at the expense of your sales. Be careful about that. Always ask yourself is this action increasing my profits and if it isn’t doing that straight away make sure you have a vision for how the project can make you money in the future.’     Have fun with it   ‘This one’s a bit cheesy but seriously have fun running your business. It can be really tough at times and there are times where you lose motivation. I find it’s expected of people running companies that they never lose any motivation. But ultimately anyone running a company is only human so don’t be too hard on your self and enjoy your work because you’ll find if you do that your staff will too.’

George Burgess... where to start? Founder of revision app company that raised $3million, Venture Partner for InMotion (Jaguar Land Rover),  Stanford Uni dropout, Co-founder of EdTech Exchange, public speaker, and part-time 'tinkerer'!   Further to meeting George at The BETT Show earlier this year, we stayed in contact via the EdTech Exchange network he co-founded. After finding out more about his story it was one I just had to share.   George founded the revision app company Gojimo which is used by 1/3 of GCSE and A level students in the UK, and over the past couple of years has achieved a successful exit to the Telegraph. This however wasn't without its challenges... they achieved huge user acquisition, constantly developed the platform, but did struggle to monetise!   Alongside Gojimo, George founded EdTech Exchange which is a network for EdTech founders (of which Titus Learning are a part of!). This started off as a way to speak with peers in the sector, but soon grew into a large organisation and a real business opportunity.    As well as George's business ventures, we discuss how he manages his time, his other interests and ideas, and what's next.   In this episode we discuss:   Nailing the process of user acquisition Challenges and considerations for monetising your app When is it right to look at VC funding Validating your idea Time management (and generally how to spin a lot of plates!) Avoiding burnout and how to bring balance to work Product testing, KPIs, metrics, and constantly iterating When to pivot Creating a network around you to share ideas Building something that your target market love Managing stakeholders e.g. investors   Links from this episode:   Gojimo Website Gojimo Twitter George Burgess Twitter InMotion Ventures (Jaguar Land Rover) EdTech Exchange

"...I would go up on stage and I would trip and my nose would bleed... and then people would throw tomatoes at me..or even worse, potatoes, and then I would wake up in a ditch somewhere..naked". Pat Flynn has been called "the crash test dummy of online business" and in this interview you'll find out why. Forbes named him as one of the most transparent leaders in business  and the New York Times profiled him as a case study in smart online business building. He has a top-ranked business podcast with over 34 million downloads, a best-selling book "Will it fly?" and a number of successful seven figure businesses. Pat is well known globally as a global thought leader in the areas of online entrepreneurship, digital marketing and lifestyle business. We talk about how he overcame becoming redundant and found his own path and true passion in helping others build successful online businesses. We also speak to Seb Francis, co-founder of startup Titus Learning, and one of Richard Branson's self-appointed Virgin StartUp ambassadors. Seb talks to me about his experience working with hundreds of schools around the world and how he's at the forefront of the digital transformation of the classroom.
