Have you ever felt impatient about how long it’s taking to achieve your big vision of business success? Make sure you join me for today’s Allie & You.

I’m interviewing Brian Smith, the founder of the UGG Australia brand, which has matured into a billion-dollar global icon.

UGG is practically a household name these days. But the company’s sheepskin boots were definitely not a hit when Brian first introduced them to the U.S.

Brian shares several important business lessons that will inspire and motivate you. So I hope you’ll join us to discover:

• The right time to start your business – and the surprising reasons why
• An important truth to remember about every successful company (if you ever get down on yourself for where your business is now, you can’t afford to miss this)
• How parenting relates to business … and what most entrepreneurs try to rush
• Why angel investors are not right for most businesses … and when you should find one
• The #1 goal all entrepreneurs should seek – and why it shouldn’t have anything to do with your business
