Step It Up Entrepreneur


Dec 2, 2020

What sticks out to you when you think of an entrepreneur you look up to? Most of the legends we make an example of came to be where they are with a mix of toughness, persistent desire to learn and a well-earned sense of when to step back.

 

Adam Niec is the co-founder of Certain Pay, the creator of Rate Tracker and a veteran and dedicated student of the credit card processing industry. He is steadily working towards instilling greater transparency, accountability and a more positive image into the whole of processing. Adam is also a dedicated husband and father.

Tune in to inject both valuable insight and outstanding energy into your week.

Favorite Quote:

"The ability to play with pain, I think, is a huge thing. Because we get - as business owners, we get kicked in the teeth all the time, right? Things happen, and you just learn to not let it affect you and just keep playing, keep moving on that. And then also the ability to, like, have a goal and achieve it."
