25Founders

     

 

25Founders is a collective of successful entrepreneurs who serve as an editorial board of advisors for NY Report. To foster peer-to-peer discussion about timely and relevant topics, we will ask our 25Founders a different question each month and share their responses. The goal of 25Founders is to provide you with ideas for your own business, based on real-world successes and strategies.

 

This month, we asked our members the following:


What is the most useful business advice you've ever been given?
