Sit down and prepare yourself for a massive knowledge bomb! This week I sit down for a really fantastic conversation with startup founder Dave Rodenbaugh. With extensive experience in Java development for companies as large as NBC, Dave has been strategically moving his focus towards building his portfolio of web properties. In the conversation today Dave and I dig into some of the really core principles of any tech entrepreneur. From outsourcing, to buying web properties, to his experience managing a remote team, Dave shares tons of useful knowledge on almost every aspect of building and growing a portfolio of software businesses.
