"The difference between success and failure is your perspective."

Even with great ideas and passion, it's difficult to navigate the murky waters of entrepreneurship. Our guest, Michael Dermer, is an entrepreneur, lawyer, speaker, coach, author, and founder of The Lonely Entrepreneur – a one stop shop that understands the entrepreneur’s struggle and provides solutions to the business and personal issues we all face as entrepreneurs.

Michael founded his first company, Incent One, in 1998. It was a pioneer in the health rewards industry, and Michael survived the harrowing experience of watching the company he built from the ground up almost get destroyed overnight by the financial crisis of 2008.

Fortunately, there’s a happy ending to this startup story - Michael sold IncentOne in 2013. Whew and Woo Hoo!

Today, Michael’s mission is to help unlock the potential of entrepreneurs worldwide by turning their passion into success through The Lonely Entrepreneur Learning Community.
