As much as we business owners hate it, we need lawyers. And...

As painful as legal bills can be, I've learned the hard way...

It's better to pay for a good attorney to do it right vs. paying one to fix something you screwed up because you were trying to save a few bucks. 

Listen in as Joe Tiano, who had a 20 year career as a lawyer before becoming an entrepreneur, lays out what you need to know about lawyers.

We BS for the first few minutes in case you want to forward once you get past the intro.

Quick question for you....

Using a marketing premium to increase sales is an old school marketing technique that has just as much power to convert people into customers as it did twenty years ago.

I explain how two companies use premiums successfully, and how one of them got me to buy their subscription product just two weeks ago.

Copy these two examples to increase the sales in your business!

We've all read statistics about entrepreneurs that say most of their businesses fail in the first year.

I decided to do some research of my own to see if this widely used statistic is true. 

I went to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, pulled the raw data and did the analysis for myself. 

Listen to this episode to hear what I found, I believe you'll be surprised.

If you're not accepting bitcoin for your business, you should be because it's going mainstream with companies like Tesla now not only accepting it, but holding it as an investment on their balance sheets.

I explain how to accept bitcoin as well as a principle about accepting all forms of payment and why, even if it costs a percentage of your sales to do it.
