In this week's episode of the SIMPLE brand With Matt Lyles podcast I talk with John Meese, author of Survive and Thrive: How to Build a Profitable Business in Any Economy (Including This One)!Let's face it. If you're a small business owner, statistics are not on your side:20% of small businesses fail within their first year50% of all businesses don't last five yearsOnly 33% of all businesses last 10 years or more And that's in average economies, without a pandemic. Last year, and this year, have made small business ownership much, much worse. In 2020, over 100,000 businesses permanently closed. This year, in 2021, roughly 9 million businesses say they're afraid they won't survive through the rest of the year without additional government assistance. No matter how you look at it, no matter what economy you're in, business ownership is a struggle. Beyond just your expertise, you have to know how - and put into place - those practices and systems that will not only ensure your business survives, but also ensure it thrives. Because if you're a business owner, I'm sure you didn't create your business just to simply survive.And that's why I'm happy to talk with John Meese this week. John's the CEO of CoWork Inc. He's the former dean of Platform University. He's the host of the Thrive School podcast. And he's the author of the recent #1 bestseller Survive and Thrive: How to Build a Profitable Business in Any Economy (Including This One). John and I talk about how the global pandemic effected - and continues to effect - our economy and small business owners, and we discuss the key plan business owners can use for building (or re-building) a business with legs that will last for the long haul - even in the next economy-impacting event. No matter what industry you're in, no matter what size your business is, these are the practices that you need to instill to ensure your business not only survives, but thrives - regardless of the economy.

John is an economist-turned-entrepreneur on a mission to eradicate generational poverty by helping entrepreneurs create thriving businesses. He's also the first member in his family to go to college. He readily admits that to succeed in business entrepreneurs don't need a college degree, a lot of investment, or a big business plan. If you can find real people with real problems that they're actually aware of and trying to solve, and if you can create a solution, then you can be successful!
We all know how volatile the economy has been in the last year or so. And it might get much worse before it gets better. With so much unpredictability, it can be easy to blame our circumstances when we don't succeed. But one thing that I know for sure is that we are not victims of our circumstances. I firmly believe that we develop our character, expand our capacity and learn invaluable lessons by working through challenges rather than letting them stop us. Your business will inevitably encounter a crisis at some point, whether it's a major market shift, a global pandemic or a personal crisis with your health or family. Today I'm looking forward to talking to John Meese about what he's discovered about what it takes to build a thriving business in any economy.

If there is only one book a business owner could read to really help their business Survive and Thrive is the one.

John Meese is a traditionally-trained economist turned serial entrepreneur and advisor to several Fortune 5000 businesses. He believes that most entrepreneurs are overworked and underpaid by the boss in the mirror, which is why he breaks down every business success into a repeatable, step-by-step process so that others can build a business that fuels their lives (rather than the other way around). John and I caught up recently to talk about his experience in starting his co-working space called Cowork Columbia, which he opened 58 days before the COVID-19 lockdown. John discussed how and why he got started in the business and we shared some common practices not only for coworking spaces, but running businesses in general. We also dove into John's new book, Survive and Thrive: How to Build a Profitable Business in Any Economy (Including This One), where John lays out the principles that he's used to build successful businesses - even during a time of crisis.
