Confidently Navigate Small Business Buying and Selling with Baton's Chat JoglekarIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge spoke with Chat Joglekar, Co-Founder and CEO of Baton, a modern marketplace built to simplify the buying and selling of small businesses. Chat shared powerful insights into why acquiring an existing small business can be more strategic—and less risky—than starting one from scratch. He also outlined the tools Baton provides to make small business transactions more accessible, transparent, and successful.The Baton Approach to Small Business OwnershipBaton was born from a vision to demystify the complex process of small business transactions. Chat Joglekar and his team recognized that many entrepreneurs overlook the option of buying a business with built-in cash flow and customers, opting instead to launch from zero. Baton aims to shift that mindset.Chat explained that Baton functions as both a listing marketplace and an educational platform. Sellers can receive a complimentary valuation, and buyers can browse listings for free. Unlike traditional business brokers who charge up to 12%, Baton keeps its success fee at just 6%, lowering the barrier to entry for buyers.One of the most underutilized tools in small business acquisition, Chat emphasized, is the Small Business Administration (SBA) loan. For businesses valued under $5 million, SBA loans offer low-interest rates and long repayment terms. Baton helps guide buyers through the financing process and offers content and guidance to make these loans easier to understand and obtain.Whether you're selling your first business or stepping into entrepreneurship by acquisition, Baton supports your journey with webinars, guides, and one-on-one support. Chat's mission is clear: empower business owners with data, education, and an easy-to-navigate process.About Chat JoglekarChat Joglekar is the Co-Founder and CEO of Baton. With a background in product leadership at Google and venture-backed startups, Chat is passionate about simplifying entrepreneurship through small business acquisition. His career spans growth strategy, business development, and marketplace design.About BatonBaton is a digital marketplace designed to make buying and selling small businesses more efficient and affordable.

David Pt. 3 Stand and Fight - Ben Workman

Readings for the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord - Acts 1:1-11; Luke 24:46-53We know the story. We've heard it dozens of times. And we know that it ends up ok in the end. But what about when we apply it to our lives? What about those moments of anxiety when we are given the keys? Or the job training is done and we are now expected to know how to do a task? Or a child is born and is lying in our arms and we haven't the slightest idea what to do next? There you go. Now you understand this feast on a deeper level. You take the next step in trepidation, anxiety, trust and hope. That sounds about right. We don't just watch this one from the sidelines. We are witnesses of these things.And then there was one...one last podcast to go next week on the Feast of Pentecost. I can't thank you all enough for listening these many years or these 1-2 times that you have. Either way, I'm humbled. I hope to do my thanks next week - but in the meantime, thank you all for sharing this, trusting me and living it in whatever way God invited and invites you. That's the best.

In the first episode of season 5, we celebrate transitions, transformations, and the quiet power of standing among ancient trees. Former host Emily Harwitz returns to pass the mic to new host Monica Carcamo-Binetti, a longtime advocate for nature connection and co-Founder of Bay Area GalVentures. Together they explore how the redwoods shape us, and how being outdoors can clear our minds, rest our intentions, and remind us of what truly matters. Emily and Monica find beauty, resilience, and a shared commitment to protecting the places that change us. This season, Monica will explore how redwoods act as the ultimate “nature influencer” — and how these ancient giants guide us towards a deeper connection with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. ------------Monica Carcamo-BinettiMonica is a storyteller, hiker, and Save the Redwoods League council member. She is also the co-founder of Bay Area GalVentures, an Instagram community she started with her lifelong friend to share their hiking adventures, especially among the redwoods. Monica discovered her love for the outdoors later in life and now champions access to nature for women. She extends this passion into her role as our new podcast host, where she shares stories that connect people to redwoods, nature, and each other—with heart, curiosity, and a deep love for the forest.Emily HarwitzEmily Harwitz is an award-winning science writer and nature photographer working at the intersection of science, environment, and culture. Through written, visual, and audio forms, she tells stories that deepen our capacity for wonder and bring us closer to the natural world—including each other.

In this episode of The Digital Executive podcast, Brian Thomas welcomes Chat Joglekar, co-founder and CEO of Baton, a marketplace revolutionizing how small businesses are bought and sold. With prior leadership roles at Zillow, Spotify, and Google, Chat shares how his background in scaling tech platforms shaped his vision for Baton—to become the “Zillow for small businesses.” He explains how Baton empowers entrepreneurs by offering instant, data-driven business valuations, addressing a long-standing gap in transparency and access within the small business market.Chat also discusses key trends driving change, including the “silver tsunami” of retiring baby boomers and a rising interest among professionals in acquiring established small businesses rather than launching startups. Baton, with its easy integration of financial systems and real-time valuation tools, is at the forefront of this transformation.  Tune in to hear how Chat is democratizing entrepreneurship and why Baton is becoming an essential tool for the next generation of business owners.

Faith That Leaves a Legacy: Passing The Baton Graduation Sunday at New Hope is always something special—and this year is no exception. We celebrate not just academic accomplishments, but the faith journeys of our students and the spiritual impact of their families, mentors, and the church community that have walked with them every step of the way. High school senior Brindley Rhodes kicked off our message by sharing her testimony of transformation, how her individual faith matured into shared community after years of praying for meaningful connections. She reminded us that we are not just small groups scattered through a congregation—we are one unified body in Christ (1 Corinthians 12:12–20). Her challenge was simple: take time to truly connect with one another and recognize the legacy we are all helping build, together. Then we heard a video message from college graduate Rosie Harrison. Rosie offered powerful insights on what her generation longs to see in the church—genuine, lived-out faith. She emphasized that her peers are not interested in tradition for tradition's sake, but in churches that prioritize justice, compassion, humility, and mercy—the kind of radical love Jesus taught and lived. She called on the church to be bold, to stand with the vulnerable, and to live out Micah 6:8 in both word and action. After the students spoke, graduates symbolically passed red batons to the next generation—an act of spiritual commissioning. They then handed out roses to someone in their “village,” honoring those who shaped their faith. The moment was emotional and unforgettable. Pastor Vicki Harrison concluded with a heartfelt charge to the graduates, encouraging them to live lives that truly matter by embracing: Passion: Find joy in your journey and live fully. Humility: Serve others with the heart of Jesus. Purpose: Let your life reflect the light of Christ and draw others to God. She reminded us all that the greatest legacy we can leave is not material—but spiritual. Our job is to love deeply, disciple well, and trust that God is working through us in every season. As the baton is passed, the mission continues. To our graduates: remember who and Whose you are. You will always have a home at New Hope. Reflection & Discussion Questions What does it mean to you to “live a life that matters”? In what ways can you live with passion, humility, and purpose this week? How are you helping pass the baton to the next generation? Who has been part of your faith journey—and who are you helping shape spiritually today?

In this heartfelt interview, Nancy Sabato welcomes George Shamblin to discuss the urgent need to pass on faith to the next generation. Shamblin shares personal stories of struggle, including his battle with depression, and explains how God uses our weaknesses for His glory. Together, they explore why many young people are rediscovering authentic faith, how to break the stigma around mental health in the church, and practical steps for ensuring the gospel continues to thrive. Viewers will find encouragement, biblical wisdom, and actionable advice for living and sharing a Christ-centered life.YouTubehttps://youtu.be/6b7vDyQTLRgThanks for tuning in!
