38. Live Your Dream by Seeing Problems
Manage episode 305237899 series 2818013
Bird Blitch built a healthcare and payments company from scratch. Thirteen years later he sold PatientCo for over $450mm to Waystar Health. His first company sold too, but for the equivalent of one year’s living expenses, and that’s what he used to create PatientCo.
In this conversation, Bird shares his secret of building big companies. And it isn’t about the idea, it is all about the problem. He gives entrepreneurs tips like, “Carry a notebook with your wherever you go. Write down the problems you see and experience. It could be something simple, like your brakes squeak. You never know where this will lead you.”
This is Bird. He is fundamentally an entrepreneur. He is also a leader, business creator, and most importantly, a problem solver. Using these God-given skills, he has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.
And he’s not done solving problems. He is now the Chief Innovation Officer at Waystar. In his new role, he told me how excited he is to be working with the best and brightest in healthcare.
Listen in as Bird shares his three secrets to a successful startup, and three steps to getting closer to God. It is all part of the richness in life through entrepreneuring.
