Elaine Pofeldt is an independent journalist and speaker who specializes in entrepreneurship and careers. Her book “The Million-Dollar, One-Person Business” is about seven figure entrepreneurs who run their businesses without any employees. Elanie has been featured in publications like Forbes and Fortune and was nominated twice for the National Magazine Award.
In this episode, Elaine and I speak about what million dollar businesses are doing to pivot and keep growing in these challenging times. Elaine says that during a crisis, it’s important to surround yourself with positive people and that you can use this opportunity to do things you’ve been putting off that will earn you money later. We talk about why now is the time to give, and why people are still buying if you offer them what they really need.
“There’s something we can all do in this situation if we think creatively and keep panic at bay.” - Elaine Pofeldt
