The UnNoticed Entrepreneur
Fellow entrepreneurs share their stories so that us so that we can build a better business.
Hi - mine name is Jim James and I'm your host. In 2019 I started this podcast to help entrepreneurs learn from one another. When I started the Entrepreneurs Organization chapter in Beijing, I realized that the best insights came from people who had already done the work.
If you're running a business; this show is my gift to you. It's hard enough as it is, and I hope that this podcast solves just one problem to help you on your way.
