As a business owner and investor, you risk something every day. Every dollar you spend on advertising, every investment in coaching, every new idea you turn into reality. There’s always a chance things don’t work out.
To many entrepreneurs, risk is scary. They run from it like a field mouse from a combine. With good reason: Too much of the wrong risk kills businesses. On the other hand, even the world’s most successful ideas were risky when they were first conceived.
So you need to take some risks if you want to innovate and dominate your market. But you need to find a balance so you stay afloat when your risk-taking doesn’t pay off.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to take “smart risk” so you can maximize your upside and minimize downside.
