“How’d you get into this?”
Jeffrey Davis of Radio Entrepreneurs has the pleasure of sitting down with the CEO of Trellis, Isaiah Bollinger, to discuss his story of entrepreneurship, the challenges he’s faced along the way and where he and his company are today. The video above is just a sneak preview of the story. Listen here to enjoy the full interview.
When asked how he got started in this industry, Isaiah explains:
“I used to work for this company called Super Media and even before that, I had always wanted to get out on my own and work with a lot of different businesses…so I knew I needed to go on a path that would allow me to work on lots of different businesses. What drew me to Super Media, at the time, was they were launching this new web design and marketing package for small businesses – which would offer me to work with lots of businesses…unfortunately, I felt their product wasn’t really scalable…there was no future path for them to grow on the web…I saw an opportunity to set out on my own and provide a more scalable solution. It was definitely harder than I thought…”
