Starting out at age 25, Tanya Alvarez self-funded her first New York ad agency, using credit cards, and achieved zero to 1 million in revenue in the first year.  Along the way, she traveled to 42 countries, completing the Boston and NYC Marathons and a Half Ironman, all while battling a rare brittle bone condition.  Since that first year, Tanya has founded, bootstrapped, sold and invested in five companies.  

In this episode we talk about Tanya’s journey of self-funding her first ad agency and the strategy she used..

We also talk about:
Selling her first business
Challenges that arise when clients owe you money
The story behind her current business, OwnersUp and its growth 
The challenges of setting up a multi-lingual, remote team that can take over while the owner is away
Why setting strategy is important to create the type of business you want
More about some of the other businesses, Tanya has successfully participated in or founded and the associated challenges
Why it’s important to align your decision making with your values
Accountability, growth, mindset challenges and some of the common entrepreneurial stages we go through as business owners
How being part of a supportive group can help with motivation and overcoming challenges

There is a lot of wisdom packed into this short interview.  I invite you to listen in.
