Join me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Clifton Sellers (https://x.com/LegacyBuilder__)
In this episode, I chat with Clifton Sellers, a social media favorite who's built a business projected to hit $2-3 million this year. He shares his incredible journey from being deep in debt while working as a VP of development making $95K a year to a thriving entrepreneur.
Clifton reveals how obsession and sheer endurance were his secret weapons, starting from a $29 Gumroad course. We dive into his pivot from "money Twitter" to establishing Legacy Builder.co as a legitimate, reputable content agency.
He opens up about overcoming past money trauma that initially capped his business at under $1 million in revenue, and how investing in coaches was the key to unlocking rapid growth.
We also discuss the power of professionalizing a business and the critical role of strong core values like "unreasonable hospitality" and "say the thing" in building a successful team and culture.
