Taking the Leap - Customer Success rep turned founder with Brian Mackey

Forget the corporate ladder, let’s talk about entrepreneurship. Brian Mackey, Co-Founder of the technology agency Baskey, is living proof that you can pursue your ambition to work for yourself, even if you don’t have a safety net. In this episode, we explore how he went from busking in the streets of Dublin to support himself during college, to landing roles in Support and Customer Success and more recently, becoming his own boss. We get an insight into how business ideas come about and how to pursue an opportunity you are passionate about. In his own words, “Take risks that will help you grow, that will expose you to new things. You are going to make mistakes and learn from them. But make sure your risks are calculated, don’t rush into anything.” I feel like we only scratched the surface of this conversation with Brian. Grab your notebook and your pen, and let’s get inspired!
