Jamie Siminoff failed many times in his entrepreneurs ventures. One time by accident, he stumbled on the idea for a Wifi Video doorbell.
No one had ever done it before and every investor he pitched to rejected him.
He ran out of money many times and he was scared he will lose his company.
He kept facing many problems and rejections and yet he kept moving forward.
