Continuing our series on entrepreneurship, we had Sean Edrington on the podcast today. Sean has a unique story. He’s an aggressive entrepreneur, using the Substack platform in a way that not many do…
Sean also started The Swing Trading Club a few years ago…and that has another interesting backstory.

Our guest, Sean Edrington, emailed me a few weeks ago wondering if we could work together on a project.
We both have newsletters submitted to The Sample, a pretty remarkable website that curates “articles from hundreds of blogs and newsletters and send you the ones that match your interests.” Over 10,000 readers.
This whole collaboration was new to me…
Sean said he was new to the cross-promotion thing. I am also, even though I mention and link to different newsletters and helpful websites here on our podcast and in our newsletters.
I took a look at what Sean was doing and — honestly — I don’t know of anyone else on the internet doing what he does with his Substack newsletters. Perhaps there are a few, but we’ll get into what exactly he’s doing with his Substacks…now up to at least three… here when we get going.
Point being, not everyone is going to be interested in what you do or say, but you do have an audience.
Sean is a graduate of University of Kansas.
He worked for Goldman Sachs as an analyst for about 3 years and now works with Standard C.
He uses his spare time to train in martial arts.

Basically...we spoon-feed you interesting businesses you can start tomorrow. And hey, maybe it'll help you get your first million users, revenue, profit, employees (that'd be wild), or whatever it is you want a million of.
