Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed: Mark Suster

by Scott Edward Walker on November 1st, 2010

To Our Clients & Friends: Welcome to our weekly series entitled “Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed.”  Each week, we post a short video clip of a successful entrepreneur, investor or business leader on a variety of topics to help entrepreneurs succeed.

This week, we present Mark Suster, a partner at GRP Partners, the founder of Launchpad LA and blogger extraordinaire.  In this interesting, five-minute clip (courtesy of Stanford University’s Entrepreneurship Corner), Mark discusses, among other things, (i) the difficulty of getting started; (ii) how being an entrepreneur is “not sexy”; and (iii) the importance of choosing a venture you are passionate about.  I hope you enjoy it.  Many thanks, Scott
