In this episode, Troy asked Steve Orenstein, the founder of Zoom2u based in Melbourne, Australia, the final five questions: What does Damian believe is the hardest thing when growing a small business? Finding and keeping customers is not easy, that’s why Steve emphasizes the importance of building an engine that's going to deliver your customers on a regular basis where you're not having to pay for those customers back, you're not spending money on Facebook ads, or AdWords. Damian’s favorite business book is "Super Pumped" by Mike Isaac. It discusses everything that was involved in building a global business that is related to building Zoom2u—a really good story of a company that went from nothing to something massive Regarding professional development, Steve finds immense value in scaling up. He loves to listen to a good podcast run by Reid Hoffman who was the founder of LinkedIn, and interviews a number of really great people. Steve suggests an effective tool for small business growth is mastering Loom, an internal tool that you use to record something that you're actually doing. And that can be something you can send to a customer.  Finally, if Damian could go back to day one of starting out, he would advise himself to become resilient. And you can't be thinking about it, I'm going to make some quick money over a year or two years, you've got to really be engaged in the problem you're solving.
