An entrepreneur\u2019s job, when shown in movies and TV shows, usually doesn\u2019t include them sitting over their computer for hours responding to comments on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. The media representation of entrepreneurs includes a lot of angry phone calls, fights with co-founders, brilliant eureka moments, and countless hours spent negotiating the next big deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the reality is much, much different than the fantasy. Entrepreneurs and founders today need to spend at least half their time on social media, says Nick Jordan, the founder and CEO of Workello. We sat down with Nick to find out just how he is leveraging the power of social media to drive sales and clicks to his website, grow his startup, and change the game for the companies he is servicing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 15 years ago I started building startups right out of college when I dropped out. My first ever startup was an app that helps people find a perfect outfit by posting their pictures on the app and getting feedback from other users. Obviously, it failed, because back in that time, smartphones weren\u2019t really a thing, and phone cameras were not what they are today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After that, I tried a few more times, and failed every time. Then I realized that I\u2019m trying to build a company from the ground up without really having much employee experience. So, I joined a new startup as employee #8, and over the next couple of years helped grow it to 200 employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This experience allowed me to learn the skills I needed to start my own company one day, and not repeat the same mistakes my former bosses did when they were running their team.<\/p>\n\n\n\nTell us about your beginnings.
