I usually interview people about the businesses they created. Neil Patel decided to interview me about the company I built with my brother Michael.

    You story was amazing, and your vision of business is awsome, really impresive.

  3. AndrewWarner Says:

    Thanks.

    I've been wondering if I'm getting so tactical that the inspiration is
    getting lost.

    Thanks for the feedback. Keep it coming.

  4. AndrewWarner Says:

    Thanks. I'll have to start doing some videos here about how I built up that
    company.

  5. Jose Maria Says:

    Awesome story Andrew and great inspiration, but I want mucho more!! You defenitively have to tech more about your success!! You have to make yourself one of your great interviews getting as much information as possible! hehehe

    sorry about the spelling errors, this iphone keyboard is killing me! ;)

  7. AndrewWarner Says:

    I'm so reluctant to talk about myself.

    Every time I do it, I feel:

    1) like a self-obsessed jerk.

    2) like anything I say over-simplifies business.

    But I need to listen to your feedback. Very often, others see us better than
    we see ourselves.

    That's why I'm so grateful when people write me the way you did.

  8. AndrewWarner Says:

    I do that too. It's all over the site.

    I was going to stop posting because I couldn't stand to see my
    mistakes–especially in the videos–and hiring someone to catch them would
    slow down production too much.

    But I finally came to the conclusion that I care more about the ideas than
    anything else. So I accept all the petty mistakes on Mixergy (even though it
    still hurts me to see them after I've made them).

    I’m sure than nobody that has seen the great content you are putting out with this interviews will think that you are a self-obsessed jerk. In fact, I think that everyone will thank you if you teach us all that you’ve learned from such a great experience. I have no doubt that I will learn much more from you than for example from Guy Kawasaki, who talks a lot, but hasn’t even got close to your success with internet companies.

    Thanks for saying that. Glad we met through these posts.
