Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Thibault Coussin, an author and crypto trainer based in Beuste, France.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I started by writing books about Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency universe. Now I'm also doing some training & coaching sessions. On top of it, I am managing a podcast interviewing key actors in this industry. My customers are mostly beginners looking for education on this topic.

Tell us about yourself

There was a lack of resources when I started investing in the crypto market in 2017, so I decided to write my first book to share the knowledge I accumulated over the years, and it was a great success! That first glimpse pushed me to write a lot more and dedicate my business to Web 3 educational content.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

The first one I am proud of is having my book edited by an awesome French editor (eyerolls) and having it in stores near some of my favourite authors.

Second, I've made some difficult decisions, especially to go 100% full-time crypto on my own business. No regrets; I am incredibly proud of this.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

My business is tied to market performance, so I need to anticipate many things, have some security funds in a bear market, and think long-term in my strategy.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Be passionate, don't do it for the money only.
  2. Have a plan and know how to prioritise and focus on 1-3 essential tasks/day.
  3. Invest in yourself, read a lot and select your colleagues carefully.
