In this segment of a YouTube interview, Speaker A highlights Nathan Barry's rapid early success with ConvertKit, attributing part of that achievement to consistent mentorship and advice. The speaker urges solopreneurs to actively seek out mentors who have successfully built businesses, using Grant as an example of someone who leverages a large team and a robust mentorship network to work less while earning more. The speaker also reflects on their own tendency to avoid mentorship, acknowledging it as a non‑positive habit.

Chapters

Nathan, I actually talk about you a lot. You had success really early in life. ConvertKit took off in your mid-20s, and I think one of the most impressive things about you is you got advice and mentoring the whole time. If you're a solopreneur who's tried to build the business, go talk to people who have done it well and learn from it. Grant has a team of 40, and he works less than he's ever worked and has made more than he's ever made. Like, what's the difference there? And I think that's something you've done really well on, Nathan. That's something Grant for sure has done a good job on. He has more mentors than I can keep up with. It helps him a ton because he gets to learn stuff. I tend to not do that, honestly. I tend to want to figure it all out myself, and that's not a positive, I don't think.
