11 Lessons From 11 Years Of the Entourage

Business is tough. It is one of the most challenging things you could pursue in your lifetime. And to last more than 10 years is even tougher. In fact, more than 70% of businesses fail before reaching their 10-year milestone.

That's why we asked our Fearless Founder and 5X AFR Young Rich Lister, Jack Delosa, to share the 11 lessons he's learned over the past 11 years of running The Entourage, sustainably growing to 8-figures, and helping our Members add over $2 billion in value to their businesses.

This is just a snippet of what Jack has learnt over the past 11 years - if you want the full, hour-long version, it's available on YouTube.

This is so awesome, so helpful, and so fresh. Right from the get-go, the team at The Entourage have brought out the big names in the Aussie entrepreneur and business space to have conversations that every business owner should listen to. I can't wait to see who they bring on next.

Amazing guests

Loved the episode with Tim Fung, Airtasker CEO! You guys are getting some awesome guests in! Thank you!

Entourage on point again!

Adz Rodger

Great content again from The Entourage! Particularly like the 1st episode and the points Tim Fung made about making sure you make time to map out the future and don't get stuck on day to day 'work', as well as the observation that you really need to be strategic about your people management and not just try to save money. Two awesome take homes I have already taken action on!

For entrepreneurs and non-trepeneurs alike

Well this was one of the best things I’ve heard in a while. I’m by no means the target demographic, having zero business or entrepreneurial experience at all. Luckily the advice given for business growth and success is remarkably applicable to personal growth and success. Loved the conversational style, by the end of the podcast I felt like I knew both Tims personally, which is a great mark of engagement. And I loved hearing about the humble beginnings of Airtasker from the founder himself. Give this a listen if you’re craving a bit of personal or professional inspiration.
