In this episode, Chris Brogan and I continue the conversation we started in Episode 2 on entrepreneurship.

Most importantly, Chris provides education and tools to help you make your life and your business thrive, by teaching you which actions will get you what you want.
Owners Take Responsibility and Prepare
Chris Brogan explains our core duty is to serve. That mindset can belong to the owner of a business or any of its team members that buy into the mission.
Here’s how he breaks down the owners mindset.
#1 – Take Ownership – Assume responsibility for preparing and programming your business and life.
#2 – Take Action – Make those plans actionable and execute them.
#3 – Make Content – Tells stories that connect people with how you serve.
#4 – Nurture Community – Help people do more of what they want to do.
#5 – Build a Marketplace – Deliver value that earns you the right to sell to the people you serve.
Customer success happens when people get what they want from your business. It’s not just increasing customer satisfaction, but taking responsibility for connecting, consistently communicating and nurturing relationships to build trust.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the owners mindset. Meet me over on Twitter to take the conversation further.
