Today we welcome Alex Neist, a serial entrepreneur and former professional athlete. Alex is the founder of Hostage Tape, a health enhancement product that has quickly scaled into an e-commerce powerhouse, generating seven figures in monthly revenue.

Alex shares his succession stories from AFL quarterback, to tech company founder, and selling the business to a strategic buyer in a cash and equity deal.

You’ll want to hear why Alex decided to leave once his equity vested, and his journey of self-reflection and personal challenges to overcome. Eventually it led to the origin story behind Hostage Tape and how he’s creating scalable businesses around commodity products.

Alex believes that to get better, you have to be able to confront failure.
