  • In this episode of ‘We Built This Business’ we talk with Phil Fraser from The Business Sounding Board. Phil shares his incredible journey of starting the world's leading online bingo comparison website from his kitchen table and eventually exiting that business in a multi-million pound deal in 2018. From a failed investment pitch to creating a thriving business model based on affiliate marketing, Phil’s story is a fascinating look at entrepreneurship, risk-taking, and the art of building a sellable business. He also dives into his current venture, The Business Sounding Board, where he provides mentorship and guidance to business owners. HIGHLIGHTS • From Failed Pitch to Success: How a rejected investment pitch led Phil to accidentally create an online bingo comparison website. • Affiliate Marketing Mastery: The two business models Phil used to monetize his website and how he capitalized on the online gaming boom. • The Evolution of Online Bingo: Why the UK market was slow to adopt online bingo and how Phil's company was perfectly positioned to take advantage of the shift. • The Sale Process: Phil shares his experience of selling his business, including the challenges and triumphs along the way. • Imposter Syndrome & Growth: How Phil overcame self-doubt and boredom to scale his business, eventually leading to its sale. • Life After the Exit: Phil's transition to becoming a business coach and mentor, helping other entrepreneurs navigate their own challenges.
