How do entrepreneurs define success?

Adam Berezin and Jason Gumpert founded MSDynamicsWorld.com fifteen years ago when "digital marketing" was a bold new concept. They have seen the channel fully embrace the digital strategy, reaching 100,000 subscribers, 200+ customers, and 30,000 podcast listeners.

Others would say they have "made it."

Yet, they hesitate to say it themselves. They're careful not to become complacent and slow their innovation.

In our first interview, "Two Guys, One Site, Zero Microsoft Ties," at their 10-year anniversary, they explained the backstory of starting the business. Now they talk about the changes they have seen at the 15-year milestone, plans for the future, and advice for other entrepreneurs.

Everyone in the Microsoft Dynamics channel knows MSDynamicsWorld. Since its launch in 2008 MSDynamicsWorld has grown into the world’s largest Microsoft ERP/CRM news and information resource.

But if you think this site was launched by seasoned Microsoft executives with deep channel connections and vendor funding, you couldn’t be farther from the truth. Ten years ago two young entrepreneurs, Adam Berezin and Jason Gumpert, knocked on the door of this channel with no direct relationships and no connection to Fargo or Microsoft. And they made it.

This backstory includes “the worst sales job ever”, crashing a Harvard alumni meeting, the opportune meeting of two very different people and a whole lot of cold calling.
