Entrepreneurs are most successful when they fit and have passion for what they are undertaking. The answers to critical questions such as these indicate the probability of making it: How do they relate to the solution they are bringing into the world? Do they have grit and determination, especially in the early stages? Are they humble enough and willing to seek help and support when and where they need it? Are they crazy enough to invest in?
In this episode, I (Daniel) interviewed Matt Hunckler, Founder and CEO of Powderkeg, and Christopher (Toph) Day, CEO of Elevate Ventures. Together with their friend, Nate Spangle, Matt and Toph are also the co-hosts of the podcast Get IN. As we spoke, Matt and Toph shared about their entrepreneurial journeys, invigorating connections, and founder market fit. They also talked about finishing well with excellent execution, safety and encouragement in community, empowering mental energy, and the upcoming Global Cross-Sector Innovation Rally Conference.
“How do you relate to the problem and the pain point?... Do I see what I’m doing as part of something bigger? And not from an ego standpoint… Even if I benefit nothing from this endeavor, do I feel good about making this contribution?” -- Matt Hunckler
