Welcome to the the 97th Floor Mastermind Interview Series where each week we sit down with one of the makers, thought leaders, and visionaries behind the biggest and/or up-and-coming brands around. We talk about everything from business and marketplace insights to personal journeys and successes, to failures and legacy.

In this episode we’re talking to Scott Paul, CEO and Founder of Wooly, about what it takes to find success as an entrepreneur. Scott shares his own experiences, explaining that most new ventures end up as failures, and how it’s up to the entrepreneur to learn from these mistakes and use them to improve upon their next attempt — because in business, success is about trying until you get it right.
