When I interviewed him four years ago, Cory talked about how working at a traditional job wasn’t for him. Sure, the money, the job security, those things were great, but he hated the work to the point where he couldn’t physically get himself to open the door to his office one day. That’s when he knew he needed a change.
Cory’s a good friend and sometimes business partner who has been in the audiobook industry for over a decade. When he started, audiobooks were on cassette tapes!
Here, we talk about books and the publishing industry as a whole.
"...I assume you want to spend more time with the people you love. That's probably high in your list, and you probably don't want someone telling you to do things you're not good at ... Those are the reasons we start businesses."
Topics discussed in this episode:
- Sustainable business funding strategies
- Audiobook publishing innovations
- Entrepreneurial challenges and growth
- Importance of niche focus
