Summary
Succeeding in your business is about going beyond the comfortable. Nathan Hirsch is no stranger to this when he built up his own remote hiring software, FreeeUp. Coming from one of those rare success stories that sprung up from a dorm room, Nathan started his now million-dollar business bargaining books in college. He later went out of his comfort zone and started selling toys and baby products at just 21 years old. Talking about his parents and the dream life he wanted, he explored on the kind of freedom he wanted in a job, which later on helped built his empire today. Hiring VAs from all around the world, expanding beyond his town, and helping others focus more on growing their businesses; Nathan shares about the increasing opportunities found in remote hiring.
