Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
My name is Carl Gould, I live in New Jersey, born and raised in the United States, I’ve been in the entrepreneurial world for almost 37 years now and I grew a number of businesses starting with a contracting company and but I went to school for accounting and finance and had a really bad leg injury and you know force me to leave school and so I needed to make some money. So, I started what I knew best, which was the landscaping company. I started that business, grew it over the next 7 years, sold it, started a construction company, had that business for 12 years so that--but I started in coaching in 1990 and really found my passion. It where--it was the sort of thing that I really loved to do and all through the nineties you know if they were such a thing as a side hustle or you know the gig economy that was me. Coaching was a new industry at that time, nobody knew really what it was, you certainly worked making a full time living at it and I figured out a way to do that and that--my method became very popular and over the years I certified or trained or accredited over seven thousand business coaches worldwide. So, you know I went from mowing lawns and building houses to a coaching and advising ultimate business owners all around the world so I feel really grateful and blessed to be able to do what I get to do these days.
