A new podcast looking at the reality, the highs and the lows, of running a small business.
Do you run a small business? Where do you go to find advice, or just somewhere you can hear others relate to the rewarding yet often overwhelming journey that is owning and running a small business?
We’re Ben, Ben and Laura and we’re all small business owners at different stages in our own small business journey. Since we started hanging out we discovered that we’ve got so much in common when it comes to running our businesses, and yet we’re having conversations together that we weren’t hearing anywhere else.
So we thought, why not have those conversations ourselves and share them?
We want to talk frankly and openly about our experiences of running a small business: the good, the bad, the strange, the stuff no one tells you when you’re starting out and the things we all go through and want to talk about more.
It’s not all ‘hustle’ and hanging out with the entrepreneur crowd, it’s often working out how to get business through the door and make sure you’re not alienating your entire family in the process!
So if you’re running a small business then join us. Listen and let us know what you think!
