It’s Not Over is like real-time therapy for entrepreneurs and business owners.
Each episode is about vulnerable, honest and frank conversations with entrepreneurs who have survived near-death business experiences.
Too often I listen to entrepreneurs and business owners talk about how they became rich, how deeply they read, how they invest their exit money and how they have found peace recently through meditation and Naval’s tweets.
Every entrepreneur I know has a story of survival. On this show, I talk to entrepreneurs about their own stories of survival and success. We discuss the players involved, the lessons learned, the strategy that helped them out of their death spirals and dive deeply into how these experiences changed the way they build and run businesses.
I also urge my guests to talk more openly about how business catastrophe impacted their personal lives and mental health.
Each episode will change how you see your own obstacles both personal and professional.
Every guest will teach you lessons to apply in your own life and business.

Chris Jones - How his business survived losing 70% of its revenue in one meeting
Like many entrepreneurs, Chris Jones built his business off the back of a product that he developed to solve a problem that he had. As an American Football player, Chris noticed a gap in the market for durable catcher's gloves with extreme grip.
He developed a glove, started to produce and sell it and eventually rolled that product into a distribution business with a partner who would ultimately put his business in a very precarious position. In a single meeting, his partner ended their relationship and took with it 70% of his revenue.
In this episode, Chris and I discuss creating a product from scratch, finding partners, losing income and succeeding in the face of certain death.

Jason Bagley - A single distracting client ended this business
When his business eventually ended, it took with it his cofounder relationship, best mate and group of friends from high school.
Jason Bagley's company, Firing Squad, started out as a project-based service business. But thanks to his ability to analyse the data, he pivoted to a more profitable product-based retainer model focused on email management.
Unfortunately for Jason and his business partner, the data can only point you in the direction you need to go, the rest is up to you. Jason landed an enticing client who would mark the downfall of his company with late payment, all-consuming work and the promise of shiny silicon valley like growth and venture capital.
Jason's story is one filled with resilience, recovery, and an unfortunate lack of focus as a single destructive client grew in scope but not in profit.
