Entrepreneur, Investor, Advisor

As an entrepreneur, very simply you're often just looking for the word "yes" as many times as possible in a week. Yes from potential investors, yes from talent, and perhaps most importantly yes from potential customers and partners. "No" is often the enemy of progress. One of my latest ventures DREAMSAKE®, before we had even launched, thankfully got the yes from our friends at Zapp to stock our new Sake. They could have easily said no, but now we're on the homepage of the app and both benefitting from a rapidly growing category. So thank you to the team at Zapp - and thanks to all the optimists that always try to say yes. You can perhaps never always appreciate what that yes means in the moment, but to an entrepreneur it usually means everything.
