Customer Reviews
I like it.
Like how a barista puts the first few bucks into the tip jar to get people into the giving spirit I am not ashamed to be the first to review this podcast. Quite simply, I like it.
Smooth Operators
That Saul Colt is one smooth operator. It’s fun to hear his commentary with Bob Knorpp (also smooth) about the interviews Saul brings to the show. So far the guests and conversations have been great. I’m excited to stay subscribed and follow this show as they continue to bring interesting guests on. And now I have Sade stuck in my head.
Fun & Interesting
I really enjoy getting insight from small business owners about their businesses, products and processes. Great job finding really passionate, smart guests!
