It’s not a secret that the pandemic hit so many industries and the tough part is learning how to get back up after such a hard blow.
Such is the story of Simon Leslie, my guest in today’s podcast. He’s a friend and one of our clients at 7th Level. He shares what it’s like to lose everything you’ve built and the pivots you need to take in order to position the business to adapt to the current situation.
Simon’s story proves that failures are not the end of it all. There’s an opportunity awaiting everyone, whether you’re a salesperson, entrepreneur, and the like.
He shares some of his daily wisdom on Instagram too where you can follow him through the IG handles – @simon_leslie21 and @themotivationalpoet.
