#1: Spotting Opportunities with John Yates - Making things up in Business as we go along because plans don't always work the way we plan them!
John is an entrepreneur and founder of Priority Learning. He started tutoring whilst at University and now works full time on his successful business. John is brilliant at spotting opportunities in the market and creating solutions. He is currently designing an app with AI features that would mark homework and make tutor’s life easier.
Join us as we discuss spotting opportunities, valuing your time, and being prepared for an entrepreneurial life.
Key take aways
- Take calculated risks
- Have "life boats" so you can pick yourself up if things go wrong
- Spread yourself thin to expose yourself to as many problems to solve
- And be willing to be in it for the overhaul! New opportunities will take a lot of work
