The CEO of the new streaming service, The Plug Network has avowed that the difficult time he passed through in life has taught him valuable lessons that aided him in building his businesses.

In his recent chat, Thony Edouard, who founded The Plug Network this year after the Covid-19 devastations of 2020 wrecked the global economy and caused a slow-down in the real estate sector where he had worked for the past six years as founder and CEO of  Edouard Equity LLC, said: “Honestly, I wouldn’t do anything different in terms of my education and the work trajectory my life has taken so far because the hard times I experienced made me who I am today.”

His founding of a streaming service, he said was a response to the wreckage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on his real estate business.

“We took a loss for a year running now and I am even thinking of walking away from real estate, but then there is opportunity in the gloom because streaming services became a lucrative one due to lockdown,” he explained.

The father of three kids also avowed that his grandfather’s advice has also helped him to strive to be successful in business. “My Granddad told me, “do what you can so you never bend your head down in front of people”,” he recalled.

Additionally, the Covid-19 era taught him some business lessons too, he added.

“Of course, the lessons are general, but I found them even more pertinent as a businessperson. Three of these lessons are “Don’t ever get too comfortable; always save for a rainy day and don’t put off what you can do today for tomorrow,” he stated.

He further gave assurances about his new business. “I am pulling all the stops to ensure that The Plug Network is one of the top streaming services in the world by the year 2022,” he said.
