Young Boss with Isabelle Guarino

The Biggest Secret to LinkedIn Networking

The Young Boss Podcast Season 2 Episode 10

Are you networking effectively enough as a business owner? In this episode of Young Boss with Isabelle Guarino, I explore the power of networking with Jake Fleshner, an innovative young leader who has evolved from his college startup roots to become an influential force in the business landscape. 

Jake, at just 27 years old, is a force to be reckoned with. From his early days at Spade Trade alongside his brother to his transformative experience working with business icon Gary Vee, Jake has cultivated a wealth of knowledge that he generously shares with us, and others. Jake’s insights into building businesses through his latest venture, The Nucleus Network, shows the importance of building an exit strategy for your business from the start and why making strategic introductions for professionals pays off - for both himself and his clients. Whether opting for rapid growth or a more gradual approach, his advice emphasizes the importance of developing meaningful relationships in business.

Jake and I uncover his philosophy on the power of networking and how every connection can be a stepping stone to success. His top three tactical tips for entrepreneurs, including the strategic use of LinkedIn, will revolutionize the way you approach professional networking and how you build your business. As Jake eloquently puts it (although not the first), "Your network is your net worth," and we prove this mantra with compelling statistics and personal anecdotes.

From discussing the influence behind The Nucleus Network to debunking misconceptions about business ownership, Jake’s candid revelations are a breath of fresh air for young business owners. Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this episode offers actionable advice that can move your career forward.

Jake’s journey reminds us that youth can indeed be an advantage in entrepreneurship, allowing fresh perspectives and boundless energy to drive innovation.
