Toxic Hustle: When Business Ambition Eats You Alive (Almost)

 Published On Oct 23, 2023

What exactly is the stair-stepping approach to succeeding in business? Founders and Co-Founders alike all share similar struggles, no matter what industry they’re in. Whether it’s SaaS, marketing, or eCommerce, there are universal obstacles they all have to overcome.

Corey Haines is the Co-Founder of Conversion Factory which, in their own words, is ‘the only product marketing agency for growing SaaS teams accessible on a subscription.’ He’s an impressive guy with an extensive career in marketing, and most importantly, he cuts through the bullsh*t, and he’s not afraid to be open and honest about his entrepreneurial struggles, a breath of fresh air in this ‘grindset’ society.

In this episode, you'll learn:
→ What the stair-stepping approach actually is
→ Why you should endeavour to learn publicly
→ The survivorship bias that is ever-present in today’s entrepreneurial culture
