John Lee Dumas is the founder and host of the popular podcast, Entrepreneurs on Fire, and the author of the brand new book, The Common Path to Uncommon Success. With 7 figures of annual revenue, he is spreading entrepreneurial fire all over the world. However, even though he is now one of the top business podcasters on the Internet, he still does the little things that grow his business. John once said, “Do the things that don’t scale” and he lives that out. This is a value we should all take to heart in building our own businesses.
