#031: This episode is the tale of two ends of the business spectrum..  One side you have the core values of fun and at the other end you have grieving the loss of an 8 yr old business. Listen as Matt describes both situations.

Shocking the Aubin think tank didn't pan out...  the moment you realize that sitting in a room by yourself wasn't the right direction when you are a highly social creature like  Matt.  What was he thinking??? 

That journey led him to creating the iteration of Keen that we see today. A thriving local business that has fun at its inner most core.  Hire for culture and train the rest.

Listen in for some laughs, some grieving and a bunch of truth bombs...

Enjoy
