Wantrepreneurs — you're thinking about doing a startup? A lot of times you don’t get paid for a long time… if ever. That’s the harsh reality—and why entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone. In this clip, I talk with Matt Levitt, founder of @TahoeBlueVodka , about the early days: no budget, no connections, no credibility—just grit. This is exactly why we built The Backyard Advantage. To open doors for the underdogs. To make sure local founders don’t have to go it alone. #BackyardAdvantage #EntrepreneurLife #TahoeBlueVodka #StartupStruggles #FounderJourney #OutworkDoubt #NobodyGoesThroughLifeUndefeated #RelentlesslyLocal #BuildToScale #DoHardThings
