Ep. 101 Emilio Garcia

In this episode of Hello Chaos, I had the pleasure of speaking with Emilio Garcia, the founder of Boundify. Emilio shared his fascinating journey from starting a business in Mexico to moving to the U.S. and establishing Boundify, a demand generation agency. We delved into his accidental entry into the world of digital marketing, driven by his engineering background and love for data.

Emilio discussed the challenges and rewards of being a founder, emphasizing the importance of understanding human psychology in marketing and the critical role of data. He shared his biggest "oh shit" moment, which involved cash flow issues due to premature scaling and hiring. This experience taught him valuable lessons about financial management and the importance of having a clear niche.

We also explored the misconceptions about entrepreneurship, such as the belief that being a founder means constant excitement and freedom. Emilio highlighted the reality of hard work and the grind that often goes unnoticed. He stressed the significance of building a supportive community of fellow entrepreneurs to navigate the isolation that can come with the journey.

Emilio's aha moments included the realization of the importance of niching down and documenting processes to ensure smooth operations. He also shared his approach to hiring, advocating for the use of hiring agencies to find the right cultural fit for the company.

On a personal note, Emilio revealed his introverted nature and his love for spending time with his family, reading, and walking his dog. He also mentioned his interest in economics and psychology, which influence his professional life.

Looking ahead, Emilio aims to improve Boundify's process documentation and create a clear ladder of service offerings to better serve clients. His journey is a testament to continuous learning and adapting, and he remains excited about the future of his company.
