My guest today is Rob Walling. Rob may not be a trader, but he is a serial entrepreneur. And trading at its heart, after all, is an entrepreneurial activity. He is an author, podcaster, and angel investor. He is the author of Start Small, Stay Small: A Developer’s Guide to Launching a Startup, which was published in 2010. Walling is the founder of email marketing software Drip that was acquired in a life-changing exit by Leadpages in July 2016.
The topic is serial entrepreneur.
