In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner, Peter Voogd, sits down with Brian Cristiano to talk how to build yourself a successful marketing and media company.

Voogd asks Cristiano about the habit of entrepreneurs to think of successful entrepreneurs as those who are very intentional, very serious about their business and undergo a lot of research.

Brian Cristiano talks about how he started his media company. The entrepreneur talks about how, a few years into his business, he began looking into office spaces and hiring a team of employees. Unfortunately, Cristiano admits, he was not prepared for what these responsibilities actually looked like.

Cristiano underscores how -- if you feel you have a handle of 75 percent of the information -- go out and start. You will, most likely, makes mistakes, but the intentional push to take action will benefit you in the long-run.
