Ep 5 - Scott Purcell on accidental entreprenuership and the journey of Australia's Man of Many
This week I’m joined by Scott Purcell; one half of the duo that started one of Australia’s largest independent men's lifestyle sites, Man of Many.
In our chat we cover all things start up, as Scott takes me from his early days tech tinkering back of house on his MySpace page and how this led to his first business, the sexily named ‘Productive Web Apps’.
Scott talks about the lessons learnt from this venture and goes on to detail Man of Many’s journey over the past 6 years; from what pushed him to take the leap and quit the safety of the 9-5, to the reality of a start-up in its early days; working 20hour days from his room at home and spending pretty all his waking time with his friend and co-founder, Frank Arthur to get the business off the ground.
