In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast host Troy Trewin interviews Justin Snyder, founder of Forest Superfoods, who turned a $250 idea into a global health brand. He shares how his passion for nutrition and persistence led to 350,000+ orders and 25% annual growth. Justin opens up about the early struggles, the lessons learned in e-commerce, and how building a small but dedicated team of 10 fueled his success. He discusses the importance of customer trust, product quality, and word-of-mouth growth in scaling a business. Listeners will gain powerful insights into resilience, sales focus, and creating long-term business impact. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Justin Snyder said that the hardest thing in growing a small business is knowing what to do next. He explained that making the right decision at the right time is critical, because the wrong move can set the business back. Over 20 years of experience taught him to step back, look at things from a bird's-eye view, and carefully decide the next logical step for growth. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Justin Snyder shared that his favorite business book is “Unreasonable Hospitality” by Will Guidara, which he loved because it highlights the power of going to extremes to please and wow customers. He also mentioned another impactful read from his younger years, “What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School” by Mark H. McCormack, which had a profound influence on his business mindset. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Justin Snyder recommends the Founders Podcast for its inspiring stories of entrepreneurs across history that remain highly relevant today. He highlights how hearing about their obsession with being exceptional motivates him to push boundaries. Justin also values business and marketing books, such as Unreasonable Hospitality and What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School. For daily learning, he listens to hours of podcasts and reads articles to sharpen his skills. He believes that continuous exposure to these resources fuels innovation and helps small business owners grow with focus and resilience. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Justin Snyder recommends keeping things simple and focusing on tools that truly move the needle for small business growth. For him, the most valuable “resource” has been a lean mindset – taking consistent daily action to grow, maintaining operational control, and prioritizing product quality over flashy systems. He stresses that even without outside funding or expensive software, small businesses can thrive by using practical tools like integrated order management systems, building customer trust through branding, and always focusing on sales and marketing as the core drivers of growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Justin Snyder said that if he could give himself advice on day one of starting his business, it would be to use time wisely. In the early days, he often spent hours on small website tweaks or tasks that didn't materially impact growth, simply because he thought he had to work nine-to-five like a regular job. Looking back, he wishes he had focused more on activities that truly moved the business forward, like reaching new customers and driving sales. His advice is to always prioritize the tasks that create real growth, rather than getting lost in busy work.

If you're spending hours creating beautiful content that gets crickets for engagement, the problem isn't your design skills or your expertise. It's probably your content topics! This episode will show you exactly how to fix it. Today I'm breaking down the framework I use to evaluate every single content topic before it goes live. Here's the truth: a great content topic can make mediocre design and copy perform well, but even the most beautiful, expertly crafted content will flop if the topic doesn't land. I spend more time ideating content topics than I do on creative, editing, or scripting, because when you nail the topic, everything else becomes easier. I'm sharing the exact 5 filter system I use to test whether a content topic will actually stop the scroll and convert, or if it's destined to get lost in the noise. From understanding the difference between "specific" and "niche" (they're not the same thing) to making sure your topics showcase your unique expertise without being too broad, this framework will transform how you approach content creation. I'm giving you real examples from my own content, including posts that could have performed better and exactly how I would fix them using this system. Plus, I'm sharing how this process saves me time on caption writing because when your content topic is strong enough, you don't need to rely on heavy captions to carry the message. In today's episode, we're talking about: Why content topics matter more than design or copy  The difference between "specific" and "niche"  How to make content personal to your expertise without making it hyper niche The attention-grabbing formula that gets people to stop scrolling  Why trying to teach a "whole textbook" in one post is killing your engagement Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!

Personal brands are all the rage, marketed as the ultimate path to business growth and success. But what if the very thing that makes you stand out is also what's keeping your business from scaling, or worse, from selling? In this week's podcast, Greg Elfrink uncovers the hidden downsides of personal branding and why it's not always the golden ticket people make it out to be. We break down Alex Hormozi's personal branding journey, looking at how his meteoric rise highlights both the power and the pitfalls of building around a personal brand. While the strategy can create visibility, Greg explains why it often makes businesses fragile: customers are buying you, not the product. That dependence makes it difficult to delegate, grow, or eventually exit. That doesn't mean personal brands have no place. As Greg points out, they're valuable for thought leaders and creators building authority. But for founders who want freedom and scalability, relying too heavily on a personality creates risk. Even more concerning, when it comes time to sell, personal brands can hurt your valuation. If your company's success is tied to your face or name, buyers see it as a liability. That can mean lower multiples or no sale at all. Download the episode to find out if personal branding is really the right growth lever for your business.
