Connor Gross (@c_gro) is a 24-year-old entrepreneur who sold his 7-figure business Cardly, while he was still attending college at Northeastern University.

After graduation, Connor joined the e-commerce marketing company Privy. He left after less than a year to focus on buying and building businesses. He currently owns a car illustration company, a photo editing business, and a tiny house blog.

He also hosts his own podcast The Next Generation Podcast, where he interviews the 20somethings building the future.

In this episode, we talk to Connor about why he chose his current businesses, how he uses social media to build his network, and how he built Cardly with his co-founder out of their college dorm rooms.

We also cover what he’s learned from interviewing over 20 entrepreneurs, why he decided to leave Privy, and his best and worst experiences from traveling to over 30 countries.
