AOMW 044 – Building a Thriving Business with John Rampton

Today I’m thrilled to interview John Rampton, well known author and contributing writer for Forbes, Entrepreneur.com, Inc., and The Huffington Post. John is currently the founder and VP Marketing of Adogy and teaches Entrepreneurship at The Academy of Art University in San Francisco. John is a serial entrepreneur (he’s launched four startups) who consults for Bay area upstarts while teaching entrepreneurship at The Academy of Art University in San Francisco. John’s success is incredible, particularly when looked at alongside survival rate statistics for new businesses. According to the Small Business Association, only half of new businesses will survive the first five years and only a third will make it past 10. Given these sobering statistics, and as a small business owner myself, I was thrilled by the opportunity to chat with John. We discussed the traits successful entrepreneurs share and how they can be leveraged to build healthy businesses. If you’re on a journey to get clear about your direction and to build or grow a successful business, this is one you don’t want to miss
