Additionally, we explore the story of his medical device company, Carpal Aid and how he solved a real-world problem with a natural cure. We also discuss how he immigrated to the US as a refugee and created a successful online shopping mall before transitioning to the world of entrepreneurship. Furthermore, he gives advice on how to stay focused, train in combat sports, and surround yourself with successful people. Tune in to learn from a successful entrepreneur who had experienced many challenges and learned valuable lessons along the way.

Guest bio: 

Haris Reis is a Bosnian immigrant who came to America as a refugee with his family to escape from the war. He settled in Nebraska where he started refereeing soccer games to make money at a young age. 

Soon, he realized that he wanted to earn more money without being away from his family. He then started an online shopping mall as an affiliate, but it didn't work out. So, he decided to fly to San Diego to get around people who are like-minded and figured out how to make people national bestselling authors. 

Even though he was young and didn't have much money, he successfully did it his first time by offering a "national best-selling book creation" service for only $100, which people now charge $100,000 today. 

Haris Reis is an inspiring entrepreneur who looks for opportunities and grabs them with both hands.
