And I opened a physical office which was like the opposite of my, you know, my previous personality. And I put in a whole bunch of US based employees that all had, you know, it's like now all of a sudden everybody has the right computer equipment. Everybody has to have, you know, a desk that has to be the right height with an ergonomic chair so that I don't get sued and like. And I and I remember, you know, it's like, OK, it's just the next expense. It's the next expense. And then I was like, what am I doing? Like, I can't believe this. Like, what the heck? This is not what I thought, you know, my business would be like. And the next thing you know, we've got 27 people in an office and there's all these people running in all these different directions. But we're functioning and we're doing, we're doing well. And so that's kind of how I got into opening my first like agency. But you created this big overhead that sounds like it was stressful. And I mean, when you look back on that, do you know what was behind that? Because I because I've, I've been there myself before where? You know, look, at the end of the day, you know, our businesses should really exist to contribute something. But then on the personal side, it it provides income and hopefully lifestyle, right? And yeah. And, but sometimes for me, I know I've gotten into it and gone. I kind of want the big office. I kind of want the big sign. I kind of want the big chair. And so for me, it's been, I've had ego involved before. I was just going to say that word. Yeah. I think it became kind of the ego thing. We became the fastest growing, you know, agency like in the Sacramento Valley at that time.

💡 Solve the Problem First, Then Worry About the Tech 🚀 As entrepreneurs, we often get caught up in building the product and focusing on the latest technology, but the best advice Agajan Torayev, PhD, CEO of RoboMinder, ever received was: focus on solving the problem first. In episode 3 of our podcast, Agajan shares how this simple yet powerful advice from his supervisor reshaped how he builds his startup. It's not about the tech—it’s about truly understanding the problem you're solving. The technology can come later, but solving the right problem is what will set your business apart. This is a reminder we all need! The most successful businesses are built on solutions, not just products. 🎥 Watch the full video to hear Agajan’s story and tell us—what’s the best advice you’ve received as a founder? Let’s keep learning from each other! 🔗 YouTube https://lnkd.in/eqHTi792 🔗 Spotify for Podcasters https://lnkd.in/ezh6espe 🔗 Apple Podcasts https://lnkd.in/ewYgN6es #BizTechTalk #StartupAdvice #ProblemSolving #EntrepreneurMindset #BuildSmart #TechInnovation #StartupJourney #BusinessSuccess
