Entrepreneurship for People who never felt like "Entrepreneurs".
You've always wanted it. You now have the experience. But you've been held back. Maybe it was you. Maybe it wasn't. But it's time.
Entrepreneurship felt Risky
You needed to put food on the table, pay for the braces, add the college fund, and just be the steady for the family.
Selling never felt natural
Any time you tried to sell, it felt so uncomfortable and made you feel so awkward. So, not YOU. Or maybe you never even tried, but the thought of it is enough to make you feel uneasy.Â
You kept waiting for 'someday'
Not because you are lazy - but because you wanted to do it right. Not going to fail. Nope. It had to be the right time to give it your all.
Hi, I'm Shane.
 I've lived on both sides of entrepreneurship.
Before academia, I built and worked in real businesses. Later, I earned a PhD in business and spent years helping entrepreneurs grow—while quietly wrestling with my own discomfort of starting and taking action.
I created The Nice Guy Entrepreneur to be the resource I wish I'd had—one that combines real-world experience, clear frameworks, and human encouragement.Â

I love having someone to talk to about where I am. No matter if it is good or bad.

You don't have to decide everything today.
Entrepreneurship isn't a switch you flip—it's a path you explore. If you've been carrying this idea quietly for a long time, consider this your invitation to take one supported step.
