How to start a 7-figure business in 2025: Advice from 4 millionaires

Hey friends, welcome back to Deep Dive, the podcast where it's my immense pleasure to sit down with entrepreneurs, creators, authors, and other inspiring people, and we find out how they got to where they are and the strategies and tools we can learn from them to help build a life that we love. In this video, we're looking back at previous episodes to take the best business advice from some of our previous guests. So without further ado, here we are. To what extent do you think it's useful to join an existing startup versus just start your own and have a punt and kind of Do it anyway.

It's it's massively useful to join someone else's startup. Like I would highly recommend that to absolutely anyone. So here's what goes wrong with a lot of young people. They go to careers fairs and all that sort of stuff. It's only big corporates that exhibit.

So they end up being funneled down the big corporate uh uh path. Now, you can start a business that doesn't exist, you can go to a big corporate. So in the UK, there are 7,000 large companies that have more than 250 employees. There's 5.5 million businesses in the middle that already exist, but don't have 250 employees. So, and the vast majority of them have 10 people or less, right?
