This week, we're taking a short Thanksgiving break while the team recharges with friends, family, and maybe a second helping of pie.

Host Jon Pertchik sends good vibes to all the business owners navigating the busiest week of the year - Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday all happening at once. Here's hoping you're making the most of the rush while finding a little time to rest.

We'll be back next week with a brand new episode in our Scale Up mini-series featuring Alaina Kaz, co-founder of The Everygirl Media Group. In this sneak peek, Alaina shares how blogging became her answer to breaking into industries where "it's all about who you know" - and how that led to building an online magazine answering one question: "How does the every girl who has the vision, the work ethic, and the dream get ahead if she doesn't know the right person?"

Follow The Market Makers wherever you get your podcasts, and we'll see you next week.
