Pushing Beyond Physical Limits With Tanya Alvarez Founder of OwnersUp

Online Business Launchpad | Start An Online Business | Online Business Growth

Starting out at age 25, Tanya Alvarez self-funded her first New York ad agency, using credit cards, and achieved zero to 1 million in revenue in the first year. Along the way, she traveled to 42 countries, completing the Boston and NYC Marathons and a Half Ironman, all while battling a rare brittle bone condition. Since that first year, Tanya has founded, bootstrapped, sold and invested in five companies.

In this episode we talk about Tanya’s journey of self-funding her first ad agency and the strategy she used..

We also talk about:

• Selling her first business
• Challenges that arise when clients owe you money
• The story behind her current business, OwnersUp and its growth
• The challenges of setting up a multi-lingual, remote team that can take over while the owner is away
• Why setting strategy is important to create the type of business you want
• More about some of the other businesses, Tanya has successfully participated in or founded and the associated challenges
• Why it’s important to align your decision making with your values
• Accountability, growth, mindset challenges and some of the common entrepreneurial stages we go through as business owners
• How being part of a supportive group can help with motivation and overcoming challenges

There is a lot of wisdom packed into this short interview. I invite you to listen in.
