Podcast Episode 18 – Jack Garson on How to Build a Business and Sell it For Millions | It is my opinion that every small business should be built to sell. This doesn’t mean you are planning on selling any time soon. Thinking about your business in terms of its saleability simply helps you to create systems, hire teams, and build a business that works for the long term. The very things that make a business appealing to a buyer make it a profitable and rewarding business for you to run for as long as you want. For this episode of the podcast, I caught up with Jack Garson, the author of How to Build a Business and Sell it For Millions. In the book, Garson makes the connection between building a strong business and having the ability to sell it for a tidy profit. This is really two books in one. The first part of the book focuses on building a strong business, while the second part focuses on the details of selling a business. You can read my complete review here. In the interview, I talk to Jack about the importance of building a strong business, introducing scalability, hiring the right team, as well as important things to consider before you think of selling your business.

Podcast Episode 17 – Matt Cullina on Identity Theft | Identity theft is a growing issue. Most of us think of identity theft in terms of our credit card or social security information being stolen. In this episode of the All Business Answers podcast, I speak to Matthew Cullina of Identity Theft 911. Matt talks about the importance of small business owners protecting not only their own identity, but also the identities of customers and employees by guarding sensitive information more closely. Matt shares a lot of great advice, such as: Treat identity as an asset, protect it like you protect money. Be careful what you share, thieves can take information from different locations. Think twice before you share information, such as your birth date. As a small business owner, you need to work hard to protect the sensitive information of those who trust you, such as customers and employees. Identity thieves may be someone you know, someone who is desperate. Don’t make it easy for anyone to access your sensitive information.
