Now today I'm going to introduce you to a great guest named Mitch Rousseau. Now at the very young age of 16, he was a lead guitar player for his high school rock band. Besides the best way ever to meet girls that taught him how to build, run and promote a business. His band, absolutely free, was the highest paid high school rock band in his school district. Making over $500 a night and by the way that was in 1970. I can't do the the inflation math but I think that's about 1 billion dollars in today's numbers. In 1985 Mitch co-founded Timeslips Corp which became the largest time tracking software company in the world. In 1994 Timeslips was sold to Sage which is a very large finance company. And Mitch went on to run all of the Sage US as the chief operating officer a division with 300 people. And a market cap of over 100 million dollars. Mitch was nominated for Inc Magazine's Entrepreneur of the year on two separate occasions in 1989, in 1991. Later Mitch joined longtime friend Chet Holmes and Tony Robbins and together created Business Breakthroughs International. A company serving thousands of businesses a year in coaching, consulting and training services. Mitch was the president and CEO of that enterprise after the untimely death of Chet. Mitch left Business Breakthroughs to help others build their businesses as a consultant specializing and working with call centers with large volume leads row and helping fortunate coaching organizations scale.
