Tell us about yourself
First, I am 81 years old. I started working in 1963 at Scholastic. I have worked in many industries: publishing, hair and cosmetics printing, and now bodies. My only motivation is that I have a good work ethic, and there is work to be done. It is from another generation where people just get the job done!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Inventing TYE4® and TYE4X™, which are the resistance assistance products that people need today, and being the co-creator of 80Bites, which is the only solution to obesity.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Every day is a battle. You're essentially at war. Very few people--almost none--give assistance, only resistance.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
First, do not do this alone. Always have a partner--may be several. Second, unless you're in technology, don't innovate; copy! Third, get as much capital as possible.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
Very few entrepreneurs exist; most people are only doing this solo experience because they probably can't get a job at a company. Most people, after a while, won't admit the truth. They are reluctant entrepreneurs.
