Ep 437- Does Cold Calling Work In The Age Of Digital Marketing With Robert Poole
November 10, 2023
Robert Poole is a seasoned entrepreneur with a military background, who draws inspiration from his father's service in the Canadian militia. Poole's perspective on entrepreneurial success and work-life balance is rooted in the belief that while many entrepreneurs start businesses to escape the constraints of having a boss and to live life on their own terms, they often find themselves working longer hours and struggling to find a balance between work and personal life. He emphasizes the importance of breaking free from the demands of the business to regain personal freedom, a realization he came to after his business partner had a heart attack. Poole believes that the ultimate goal of owning a business is to be able to take time off and spend it with family or doing things that are important, while still allowing the business to grow.
