Businesses are usually founded by highly talented people with unique capabilities.  Even though they may have outstanding talent with unique offerings, this is not enough to ensure the success of a business.  Business acumen is required to enable the talent to be applied to a fertile market, effectively compete, and reach its highest level of success. 

This episode uses 4 all-time great Rock acts as an example of how talented artists were able to prevail and dominate in the extremely competitive music industry based on leveraging sound business acumen.  Each of these artists offer excellent examples of applying business acumen to talent that all business leaders can adapt to achieve success.
