 66- From corporate day job to social media entrepreneur- Peter Kim [25:40m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

In this episode of The Struggling Entrepreneur, we investigate the situation of one individual’s departure from Corporate America in order to launch his own startup firm and become a true entrepreneur.

Giving up the day job in what could be seen by others as a bright future and great promotions with prestigious companies in the modern Corporate space may seem intimidating to many. However, to Peter Kim, this is quite the opposite–it is a challenge and an exciting path to pursue his passion.

In this interview, we go into Peter Kim’s mind (as he states) to understand his motivation and goals for success. Although the firm has not yet launched and is still in what Peter calls “stealth mode,” his self-confidence could not appear stronger.

With the experience he has gained from the large corporations–especially in the area of analysis, management, business forecasting and predictions–Peter seems well poised to jump into his entrepreneurial venture and put himself on the road to success (and no longer on the road to corporate promotions).

As you will hear in this episode, Peter is acknowledged by groups and organizations as a subject-matter expert in the area of Social Media Marketing. He plans to focus on social media and social computing technologies to provide solutions for the Fortune 500 enterprises.

In addition to wishing Peter the best of success in his new small business venture, we look forward to getting an update later on, after he joins the ranks of recently-launched entrepreneurs.
