The Freedom Formula Podcast: Achieving Financial, Location and Time Freedom

In this conversation, Neel chats with Hansel from the Coder School, discussing Hansel's background, journey into entrepreneurship, and the franchising model of the Coder School. They explore the importance of passion in business, marketing strategies, and the traits of successful franchisees.

Takeaways

• Passion for the business and its impact on the community is more important than passion for the end product.
• Successful franchisees exhibit traits such as relatability, communication skills, and a 'gunslinger' approach to marketing tactics.
• Experimentation and testing are crucial in entrepreneurship, and systematic approaches may not always work in marketing strategies.
