=== SUMMARY ===
There is one element to the art of entrepreneurship that isn’t artistic at all…hustle.
Hustle is something that can’t be coached, refined, or enhanced—it’s bred.
You either have hustle or you don’t, and if you want to be an entrepreneur, you had better hope you’re not in the latter camp.
In the world of business and money-making, hustle will make up for just about anything.
Lack of knowledge? Absent credentials? Lousy network? Missing expertise? Low capital?
Whatever the obstacle, enough hustle can get you up and over the wall.
And it’s with the idea and importance of hustle in mind that we are excited to introduce today’s guest on Making Bank—Clark Benson—a man who’s no stranger early mornings, late nights, and 80+ hour work weeks.
Clark’s interest in entrepreneurship began to surface in his early 20s when he enrolled in the only entrepreneurship class at the University of Illinois. By 1995—at the age of 27—he was starting his first company, a music marketing business, and by 1999 he was capitalizing on the dot-com boom with an online dating business, eCrush.
When dot-coms went dot-bust in 2001, eCrush survived the collapse thanks to a heavy dose of Clark’s legendary hustle, and would later be sold in 2006 to the Hearst Corporation. Today, Clark works as the founder and CEO of Ranker, a leading digital media company that specializes in crowdsourced rankings.
Tune in to today’s episode to hear Josh and Clark, share a number of fantastic insights, including:
- How to evaluate the risks and rewards of working with a co-founder
- Why hustle is the most important ingredient for success
- What to do when timing is not in your favor
- The importance of zeroing-in when it’s time to scale
- Why business should never come at the expense of your children
