He changed the way we watch TV forever, and today Netflix is worth nearly $150 billion dollars (at the time of this writing).
I got the opportunity to dig deeper into the origins of Netflix's story, like how it could've been a personalized shampoo business, nearly selling to Amazon.com for $15 million in 1998, and more.
What most people don't know was that Netflix was Marc's 6th company. As a seasoned entrepreneur, he shared invaluable insights on how to accelerate your career, validating your business cheaply, what he's learned from working with current CEO of Netflix, Reed Hastings, and more.
Grateful to have shared this conversation and lessons Marc has learned in his 40 years of being a seasoned entrepreneur.
ps - fun fact: while we did not discuss this in the interview fun fact, we later found out that Sigmund Freud was Marc's great grand-uncle.
As always, please rate, review, and share!
