DCGZ 32: Alex Mullen - You Have To Start Small and You Have To Start Somewhere

Aaron and April are joined by young entrepreneurial guest Alex Mullen to discuss what it’s like to start and run a business in high school and how that translates into your college experience. 

Throughout the course of the episode, Aaron, April & Aaron discuss: 

• Starting a business from scratch as a young entrepreneur 
• Surrounding yourself with the right people
• Being inspired to keep your motivation to drive your business 
• Learning how to fail 
• Starting small as long as you’re starting somewhere

Aaron would like to give a huge thank you to Alex for coming onto the Dream Chasers: Ground Zero platform to share his knowledge about how it’s okay to start small as long as you start, and it’s okay to go against the grain of society for something you love.
