In this episode of Amazing Authorities, Mitch Carson sits down with Vince Tan, a legendary entrepreneur, speaker mentor, and ecosystem builder whose journey spans early internet hacking, global stage selling, and the creation of a purpose-driven speaker community built for long-term impact. Vince shares how his tech journey began at age nine, experimenting with early internet tools, automated content, and domain ownership at massive scale. After earning his first real money selling a digital ebook in the 1990s, Vince transitioned into public speaking, mastering stage sales through repetition, discipline, and data-driven refinement.
