Conversation with Russell Chatskis from GildedBox
Russell is a serial entrepreneur and investor. He's built multiple multi-million dollar businesses and has been an early stage investor in companies that got sold or acquired for hundreds of millions of dollars. His latest commercial adventure is The GildedBox Company. It's an on-demand business gifting concierge service that curates, manufactures, and delivers premium personalized gifts meant to elevate high-value relationships. Russell also operates CustomUSB, where I started my career as employee number four. We discuss what we learned along the way, how to properly gift, the illusion of work-life balance, and other topics on business operations and life.
Russell's book recommendation: The Prince, by Niccolo Machiavelli
