It was a great experience, both personally and professionally. I had several lessons regarding team work, sales, and budget constraints. It was also fun to implement distribution and positioning strategies for the magazine. Becoming an entrepreneur taught me about leadership, responsibility, passion and commitment, values that I will take with me through my future journey in another project. Show less
