The Trifecta: Entrepreneurial Insights with Logan Paul

Logan Paul is a multifaceted internet personality and entrepreneur.

His creator career warrants heavy applause, but what’s even more impressive is how he’s evolved from Vine sensation to YouTube star, actor, wrestler, and co-founder of a successful beverage brand called Prime.

Earlier this year, I had the honor and privilege of sitting down to talk with Logan about his entrepreneurial journey.

Here are 5 entrepreneurial lessons I’ve learned from Logan Paul…

1. The Trifecta: Partners, Marketing, and Product

When I was talking with Logan, one of the things that stood out to me was his emphasis on what he called “The Trifecta”. The three aspects of a successful venture are partners, marketing, and product.

He and his former boxing rival turned partner JJ built Prime on a foundation of respect and mutual admiration. Their partnership was a pivotal moment in Logan’s career.

In business, recognizing the strengths of your partners and their unique contributions can lead to extraordinary success. In Logan’s case, JJ’s influence in the UK brought a fresh perspective and innovation to the brand, lightening the load on Logan’s shoulders.

Who you work with, and what you work on matters much more than how hard you work.

2. Identifying Market Gaps and Disrupting

Logan and JJ noticed a gap in the hydration market and took the opportunity to disrupt it. Their drive to create a healthier, better-tasting hydration beverage aligned with their disruptive nature (a quality they both shared).

As you start your own business ventures, keep an observant eye on unmet needs in the market and have the courage to introduce new and improved solutions.

3. Learning from Failure

Logan doesn’t shy away from discussing his failures. He acknowledges the importance of failure in the learning process and its role in personal growth. He mentioned having an “education fund,” referring to the investments he’s made in learning from his mistakes.

Setbacks are a part of everyone’s journey. It’s essential to embrace them as opportunities for growth.

4. Visualizing Success into Reality

Logan has an uncanny ability to visualize his goals and turn them into a reality. Whether it’s directing a scene or stepping into the ring with Floyd Mayweather, he believes that visualizing the end result helps him bring his dreams to life.

The power of visualization and setting clear goals may be cliche, but it’s extremely evident in Logan’s story. You can’t hit a target if you don’t know where you’re aiming.

5. Living in the Present

While Logan has many future opportunities to invest in, like potential acquisitions, he emphasizes the importance of living in the present and savoring the journey.

As renowned author and thinker, Nassim Nicholas Taleb says, “The world is split between those who don't know how to start making money and those who don't know when to stop.”

One of Logan’s favorite memories was launching Prime on top of a bus in the United Kingdom. If he was constantly anxious about what was in the near future, he wouldn’t have been able to savor that moment. As you climb the metaphorical mountains in your entrepreneurial career, don’t forget to stop and smell the roses along the way. 

Logan’s journey is a testament to the power of innovation, collaboration, and constantly reinventing yourself. His story serves as an inspiration to those who aspire to carve their own path in the digital age.

I learned a lot speaking with Logan Paul. I hope you did too!
