💡 What You’ll Learn from Frederick's Journey:

🔸 Embrace Iteration: Frederick emphasizes the importance of taking action and iterating on ideas rather than waiting for the perfect moment or conditions. This mindset can lead to valuable learning experiences and eventual success.

🔸 Value-Based Pricing: Understanding the difference between value-based and cost-based pricing is crucial for entrepreneurs. Frederick highlights how recognising the value of what you offer can significantly impact profitability and growth.
