Brian David Crane founder of CallerSmart is my inspirational guest today. We talk about his early win, selling a company at the age of 24. We talk about his losing streak with a failed project to conquer 25 countries at the age of 25 and also losing in the 2008 credit crunch. In this amazing entrepreneurial journey, Brian transforms his life by building a successful company whilst living as a digital nomad. Thanks to the amazing Andreas Kambanis for this great connection.

Brian Sanders founder of Nexcast. In Brian's words:
“So you spent the first few years trying to pitch this idea to podcast celebrities, trying to get a business model and totally get ignored. Then you bail on a startup that you’d sunk a year into and about 10 grand on. Then you magically built this team, one person off of a reddit thread, and the other by doing a bait-n-switch on a legitimate programmer who just happened to have the exact skill set you were looking for?”
