Description
Today on The Casey Adams Show I sat down with Michael Sikand & Simran Sandhu, the co-founder of Our Future (recently acquired by Morning Brew). They discuss their journey, which began with a mentor's advice to never let a good crisis go to waste. They emphasize the importance of finding content that can be monetized, creating high-quality ads, and growing it as big as possible. They also discuss the importance of having a friendship with ambitious people of the same age, picking the right market, and managing expectations.
