Matt Orlic, CEO of Qure, began his entrepreneurial journey at 17 and quickly launched multiple companies. However, after losing a major client, Dick Smith, at 25 and facing a $5 million loss, he pivoted to a digital-first approach. Orlic reflected on the mentality that can accompany loss, choosing instead to learn from successful founders who experienced similar setbacks. His perspective emphasizes resilience and viewing failures as necessary steps toward success.
I was calling businesses all day, trying to set appointments for business coaches to come out and see them. That exposed me to hundreds of businesses every single day.
I pretty much lost that whole business, lost millions of dollars in cash. And that's when I started the digital journey - because I understood [that I was] at the mercy of all these retailers.
