Perhaps you’re in the process of building a business or you’re already a small business owner, who would like to become a successful entrepreneur.

Maybe you’re a wantrepreneur, someone who would like to create a business.

Building a business and being an entrepreneur has never been easier than it is today. However, with so many opportunities, it’s not so much about being an entrepreneur, rather about being a successful one.

We all know of influencers, people who run successful businesses and are being featured in magazines, on websites and podcasts.

But what do they have in common? What are the traits of today’s most successful entrepreneurs?

That’s what we discuss in this episode of the 360 Entrepreneur Podcast with Foundr Magazine founder and editor Nathan Chan!

Nathan, who’s also a blogger and the host of the Foundr Podcast, shares his expertise as an entrepreneur and as podcaster who has had inspiring conversations with thought-leaders like Tim Ferriss, Barbara Corcoran, Pat Flynn and Derek Halpern.

In today’s episode, Nathan talks about the traits of successful entrepreneurs, his productivity hacks, books he recommends to entrepreneurs (and aspiring entrepreneurs) and the tools he and his team use at Foundr Mag to get things done.
