What I Wish I Knew Before I Started My Business

November 9, 2006 by Ben Yoskovitz

How much time do you have?

Actually, instead of that please go listen to The Great Big Small Business Show podcast!

We’ve just released Episode 13 – The One Thing About Small Business, with segments from:

  • Chris Brogan – It’s the Other Things That Make it Work
  • Colleen Wainwright – How Long Will This Take?
  • Ted Demopolous – You Can’t Live on Past Success
  • Becky McCray – Surround Yourself with Mentors
  • Jon Swanson – Is Your Thank You Speech Ready?

I’ve got a segment in there as well, titled, Somebody Has to Be the Marketer.

There’s a ton of great advice in the podcast, but more than that I think there’s support. Entrepreneurs (and people in general) need a helping hand once in awhile, they need a support system, a safety net, a guiding light. Call it what you like, I think The Great Big Small Business Show, with its collection of contributors provides that…and a chunk of inspiration as well.

Please go have a listen and let us know what you think!

And you can subscribe to the podcast feed right here:
