SNM156: The Secret to Bartering Your Business
You don’t need to spend a ton of money to get started with your business. Often you can simply exchange your time helping someone for access to the course, training, and software that you would struggle to afford right now.

Use Your Strengths
There are many assets you possess that are unique and valuable.
Don’t approach someone where they are strong, approach where they are weak.

That’s his area of greatest strength.
