Will Talks Biz
Failure is the biggest life lesson on how to succeed later. Will Talks Biz encourages entrepreneurs to push through failure and find success within their own businesses by reflecting on the many failures that lead to the win. It can be assumed that anyone that has navigated life with dyslexia, had a business partner leave with all the funds, and yet continued to build successful businesses and write a book has learned a few lessons that many entrepreneurs could benefit from. William Manzanares is the student that wanted to become a business owner, did it, and is now sharing how. Will holds nothing back on those low points so others recognize that those are what make the high points better. This show will break down common myths and setbacks in business and give insight into what Will would do based on his experience as well as the experience and expertise of a variety of guests.
