How to focus using the 90/10 rule – with Andrew and Pete
In their own words – “Doing something rather than nothing … is completely flawed logic!”
These guys are awesome, funny and extremely clever marketers. So listen and find out if you are a ‘sandy head’ or a ‘speedy feet’ ?
Andrew & Pete are business partners and have been best friends since meeting at University a mutual passion for business and entrepreneurship and an ambition to one day rule the world brought them together. So, after graduation in 2011 at the age of 21 they set up their own business. Straight out of University with little or no focus or experience, it wasn’t all smooth sailing and it took till 2015/16 for them to hit their stride. What they grew to realise was that you can’t do everything well, you end up trying to do it all averagely.
