Shaan Puri

Issue #28

Hello Tiny Maverick 👋 

Today, I'm going to share a story about how Shaan Puri turned his small ideas into big businesses!

Shaan Puri is a tiny maverick who loves to explore fun business ideas!

It all started when Shaan left university, where he opened up a yummy sushi restaurant with his friends.

Despite lots of hard work and effort, they soon decided this wasn’t the business for them.

But Shaan’s hunger for entrepreneurship didn’t stop there...

He later became the boss of a special place called Monkey Inferno.

They turned cool ideas into real businesses on the internet.

Shaan was so clever that he even worked with the people who made a big social network called Bebo.

With Shaan’s eye for good ideas, Bebo went from strength to strength and eventually joined forces with another internet company called Twitch.

One day, Shaan was talking to his friend Sam who had built a wildly successful email newsletter!

Feeling inspired, Shaan and his business partner Ben set off to create their daily newsletter.

It was called Milk Road and was all about cryptocurrency, which is like a digital treasure.

He talked to lots of friends about it and they all wanted to know more.

The newsletter grew so big that even a quarter of a million people subscribed!

Shaan is still a big part of his special newsletter, and he even talks about it on the podcast show he hosts with his friend Sam Parr.

They help people learn about exciting businesses they can start.

Shaan Puri didn't give up when things didn't work perfectly. He tried, learned, and kept going.

One thing always remained: his determination to turn small ideas into big businesses.
