EP 19: 3 Keys To Entrepreneurial Success with Paul Aemisegeo
Paul Aemisegeo’s journey to founding Payroll Mart is a testament to entrepreneurial grit and vision. Just after college, Paul discovered he "didn’t fit the ADP mold," a realization that led him to a successful path in benefits and insurance. This experience gave him invaluable insights into the payroll industry, highlighting key challenges: the lack of personalized solutions for clients and the transactional approach of salespeople focused solely on closing deals.
Paul’s deep understanding of benefits and payroll inspired him to create a business that prioritized relationships over transactions. His philosophy? Sales should deliver value that outlasts the contract.
Through Payroll Mart, Paul embodies entrepreneurship by transforming low productivity into meaningful outcomes. He shares the highs and lows of his journey, emphasizing three keys to success:
- Create value before expecting it—success starts with solving real problems.
- Burn the boats, take the island—fully commit to your vision.
- Be a relationship builder—people are the heart of business.
Paul also stresses the power of ideas: “Write them down, never let anyone tell you you’re crazy, and never think you have too many!”
