#850 The Final Radio Show: What has Changed In 17 Years of Small Business

This is the final show. It is the last show after 17 years of the Small Business Radio Show. Over this period of time, I've done over 2500 interviews across so many different radio stations and podcast platforms. I know that after all this time, people are going to ask me, who was your favorite interview?  And I have to be honest, there really wasn't one. I listed every single year what some of my favorite interviews were for that year, but my favorite ones always were the small business owners. The ones that shared a real, true piece of themselves that talked to the legitimately about their experience and just wasn't here to sell a concept. The ones that lived it. We end this radio show series like we began it 17 years ago with Scott Jordan of Scottevest.  For over 20 years, Scottevest has designed great looking clothing with tons of innovative pockets and unique features. We have followed his incredible journey and now he reflects on his life as an entrepreneur and small business owner.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-small-business-radio-show--3306444/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-small-business-radio-show--3306444/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].
