From AIG to Scrabble Tile Jewelry with Ryan Levesque
Check out the full episode here:
Ryan Levesque was working in Asia for AIG and used the financial collapse as a
sign it was time for him to move onto bigger and better things!
In 2008, armed with nothing but a $450 laptop, an Ivy-League background in
neuroscience, and an insatiable curiosity to understand why people buy…
Ryan Levesque left a lucrative career on Wall Street and later in Shanghai,
China to launch a multimillion dollar online publishing business selling
information and software using what’s now become the “Ask Formula”.
Since then, Ryan has used the Ask formula to help build multi-million dollar
businesses in 23 different industries, generating over $100 million dollars in
sales in the process. Today, he and his team offer training, consulting, and
implementation services for entrepreneurs and businesses at all levels.
Ryan has been called a “conversion genius” by marketers like Boardroom EVP,
Brian Kurtz, His understanding of the psychology of consumer persuasion is a
natural outgrowth of his having studied and taught neuroscience at a leading Ivy
League institution (Brown University).

nearly 5 years running a $20 million/year China Expansion project for the
financial company AIG, managing a team of 24 people. Prior to that, he worked on
Wall Street at the prestigious investment banking firm Goldman Sachs.

language at Princeton University, and speaks Mandarin Chinese fluently.
