Key to Success in Entrepreneurship:  Create a Fantastic Experience | Wendy Spreenberg | #16

If you want to be different compared to everyone else, you must provide a better experience. If you want to be disruptive, you can change the rules of the game to favor you and your company. On this episode of The Inside BS Show, Dave Lorenzo interviews Wendy Spreenberg and she shares how she and her team are changing the game of coworking space by providing a better experience. The business model Wendy has is so different, that her company doesn’t compete with other coworking brands. They change the game so the owner of the space can win as well.
