Startup to $15 Billion: Finding Your Life's Work with Harley Finkelstein, Chase Jarvis

There's a common misconception that artists have a monopoly on creativity… But the very act of making waves—no matter the career—is a creative one. The Chase Jarvis LIVE Show is an exploration of creativity, self-discovery, entrepreneurship, hard-earned lessons, and so much more. Chase sits down with the world's top creators, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders and unpacks actionable, valuable insights to help you live your dreams in career, hobby, and life.

About this episode:

In this episode, we cover a lot of ground – from his early gigs, through struggle, failure, rejection, and rebirth…and now thriving. I’ve had the good fortune to know Harley for nearly a decade now and his personal journey is both an inspiration and a playbook of sorts for anyone who wants to tap into their life’s work – and what to do when you catch the ride of your dreams.

• Building and creating may feel like a lonely process, but you’re not alone. Harley shares his time tested strategies to get through the tough times and find inspiration to keep going.
• It’s an exciting time for retailers. No longer do you need to get your product into a big box store. You can use the power of the internet and social media to reach your audience, cut out so many of the middlemen and make great $$$.
• It’s never been better to serve even the most niche community. As Harley says, every niche has a mass market on the internet.

About Harley:

Harley Finkelstein bounced from DJ gigs to a t-shirt business to law school before joining a small internet startup in 2009 dedicated to helping creators and entrepreneurs make money doing what they loved. Today, he’s the President of that same “startup” called Shopify, now serving millions of businesses.
