Real People, Real Business is my online show featuring business owners and entrepreneurs who are in the trenches, creating and growing their dream businesses, one step at a time. Sometimes we need inspiration and answers from folks who are closer to where we are, and who share the same experiences, constraints, challenges and opportunities that we do.
I’m Stephanie, and I work with experienced business owners who are trying to figure out what’s next in their businesses. They have pushed themselves to achieve enough success that they know their business is viable, but feel they have run out of options for growth. I help them create a new vision and strategy for their business so that they can feel completely aligned, excited and energized about their new direction with a clear path for financial and personal growth.
IN THIS EPISODE - "Overcoming Obstacles By Going All In"
---------------------------------------
Josh Fuller is the founder and CEO of Matic Digital, a digital strategy and talent growth agency that he grew to over $1.5M in new business in its first year. Josh shares how he did that while also battling serious health and business challenges that would have made most entrepreneurs give up - but he pushed through and kept going.
Building a business is hard work on the best of days, but when you get thrown both personal and business curve balls at the same time, it can be difficult to find the motivation to keep going under the weight of it all.
In this episode, Josh Fuller takes us on his journey to founding his creative digital company, Matic Digital, expanding his services into talent growth, and the rocky road he was forced to navigate after a serious health crisis and a non-paying client converged at the same time.
Josh tells us that he never had plans to start an agency and how he expanded from providing creative digital services to also growing and matching talent. His company focuses on acquiring top talent, and he describes the challenges, advantages and strategies he uses for retaining premium independent workers and the human-centered approach he takes that has been very successful.
After experiencing business success after just a few months, Josh was hit with an unexpected health crisis while also dealing with a sudden drop in revenue after a large client stopped paying their invoices. He’s very candid about how he considered closing the doors on Matic Digital but details how he was able to persevere by going all in, eventually making it through to brighter days.
You’ll be inspired by Josh’s resilience in overcoming obstacles and his gift for nurturing people and relationships that has become a superpower for growing his business.
