In this episode of Tank Talks, we're joined by Sam Pillar and Forrest Zeisler, co-founders of Jobber, a platform that's changing the way small service businesses operate. Jobber brings everything, quoting, scheduling, invoicing, and payments, into one simple, powerful system, making it easier for service professionals to run and grow their businesses.Sam and Forrest share how what began as late-night coding sessions and casual coffee shop chats evolved into a company helping thousands of tradespeople work more efficiently and take back control of their time. They talk about the early lessons learned, the importance of staying relentlessly focused on real customer needs, and how they've embraced AI to help entrepreneurs future-proof their businesses.From turning 56-hour workweeks into tasks handled in minutes, to giving business owners the freedom to manage operations from anywhere, even a hospital room or beachside cabana, Jobber is proving that small businesses don't have to sacrifice their well-being for success.We explore the big questions:* Can AI finally give small business owners their "5 to 9" back?* What happens when you build software by listening, not dictating, to your customers?* Will AI become the most indispensable "employee" for millions of tradespeople?The Coffee Shop Origins of Jobber (00:01:43)* Meeting over code at Remedy Coffee in Edmonton* Building software to bring order to small business chaos* Learning from real customers instead of leading with assumptionsThe Power of Listening to Small Business Pain Points (00:04:31)* How a $430 phone bill inspired Jobber's early product* Focusing on relationship-driven problem discovery* Why the best solutions come from understanding, not pitchingEarly Hustle and Near-Impossible Odds (00:08:19)* Maxed-out credit cards, mice in the office, and toaster oven hacks* The role of naive optimism in surviving the startup grind* Asking parents for investment in an “idea” that wasn't worth much (yet)Building Trust with Small Business Owners (00:11:27)* Overcoming skepticism of the cloud and digital tools* Why authenticity, empathy, and asking the right questions matter* The “bullsh*t meter” of tradespeople and how Jobber earned credibilityImpact Stories: Reclaiming the '5 to 9' Life (00:18:24)* A customer's ability to run his business from a hospital bedside* Empowering entrepreneurs to pursue dreams, not drown in paperwork* Emotional success stories from Jobber customersThe 'Gateway Drug' of Entrepreneurship (00:22:02)* The surprising role of poop scooping businesses* Why low-barrier industries ignite entrepreneurial ambition* Jobber's commitment to serving all small businesses, no matter how nicheScaling with Purpose: Jobber as the Shopify of Home Services (00:23:43)* Prioritizing customer stories over founder fame* Embedding customer obsession into every team and meeting* How Jobber fosters an internal culture rooted in small business successThe Future of AI for Trades & Small Business (00:26:07)* AI as a “most trusted employee” for entrepreneurs* Real-world automation reducing 56-hour tasks to minutes* Why tradespeople stand to benefit most from AI efficiency* Building trust before AI can fully run their businessCo-Founder Chemistry & Fun Facts (00:34:16)* Forrest's love for right-hand drive sports cars* Sam's vintage Mercedes obsession and former bike courier skills* The role of carpentry, farming, and hands-on hobbies as a founder escapesAs entrepreneurial life splinters under pressure, platforms like Jobber illuminate a better path: one where smart technology and strong relationships meet. They're not just building software—they're cultivating trust, reclaiming freedom, and reimagining what it means to succeed in small business. Whether you're buried in paperwork or dreaming of the next simple service, Jobber could be the partner you didn't know you needed.About Sam PillarCo-founder & CEO of Jobber, passionate about empowering small service businesses.

Today's guest has long been a trusted voice in the world of smart shopping and consumer advice, and now she's turning her attention—and resources—to a new mission: empowering midlife entrepreneurs. Trae Bodge is a journalist, television commentator, and consumer expert who's helped millions save at the checkout. However, after the passing of her mother in 2023, Trae felt compelled to do something more profound and personal.In this episode, we discuss her newest venture, the Threadneedle Alley Foundation, a nonprofit she recently launched to provide $5,000 grants and mentorship to midlife entrepreneurs facing financial hardship. The organization is named after the street where her mother ran a beloved small business for decades, and this work is Trae's way of honoring that legacy while addressing a gap she's long observed in her professional life: great small business ideas without the resources or support to thrive.We explore why midlife is often the perfect time to launch a business, the biggest misconceptions around starting over at 40 or 50, and how we can all think more creatively and fearlessly about what's next. Trae also shares some Prime Day shopping tips and how to make sure you're not getting duped by false “deals.”Whether you're dreaming up your second act or just trying to save a little money this week, there's something for you in this conversation.

Traditional PR feels out of reach—expensive, complicated, and designed for big names with deep pockets.

The media isn't just looking for polished brands; it's looking for something worth hearing.

Welcome to Quick Fire Friday, the Grow A Small Business podcast series that is designed to deliver simple, focused and actionable insights and key takeaways in less than 20 minutes a week. Every Friday, we bring you business owners and experts who share their top strategies for growing yourself, your team and your small business. Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends! In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Michael Denehey interviews Joey Coleman, Chief Experience Composer at Design Symphony, shares insights on how business owners can design their first 100 days to foster momentum, clarity, and joy. He highlights the value of taking extended breaks, recommending at least two weeks to recharge and prevent burnout. Advocating for personal growth, Coleman encourages reading fiction and scheduling time for self-care to prioritize well-being. Additionally, he emphasizes celebrating achievements and maintaining a balance between work and personal life as key strategies for sustaining long-term success. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Design Your Own First 100 Days: Apply the same strategic thinking you use for customers and employees to yourself—plan your first 100 days of any new business phase with intention and clarity. Take True Time Off to Reset: Even a 10+ day break (ideally more) away from work and tech can dramatically reset your energy, creativity, and focus. You're not just resting—you're recharging your leadership capacity. Celebrate Small Wins Regularly: Don't wait for big milestones to celebrate—acknowledge small victories to boost motivation and prevent burnout. Even a solo movie or walk can be a powerful reward. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Grow Yourself, Not Just the Business: Set personal growth goals with the same focus you give business metrics. A stronger, wiser version of you is needed to lead the next stage of your company. Protect Appointments with Yourself: Treat time with yourself as sacred. If you wouldn't cancel a client meeting, don't cancel on yourself. Your well-being directly impacts your business health. Rediscover Joy Through Non-Business Activities: Read fiction, take a dance class, explore hobbies—doing things that have no direct business ROI can reignite creativity and emotional resilience. One action small business owners can take:  According to Joey Coleman, one action a small business owner should take is a 10-day (or longer) true break from work—completely unplugged from emails, calls, and business tasks—to reset, gain clarity, and return with renewed energy.

We dive deep into five buried provisions that most business owners don't know about yet. You'll learn about new reporting rules that carry $10,000 daily penalties, international tax requirements that affect "domestic" businesses, and state-by-state complications that create a compliance nightmare. We also expose the powerful enforcement tools the IRS now has to seize your assets without going to court first. But it's not all bad news! We share amazing loopholes and strategies that smart business owners are already using to save huge amounts of money. From entity restructuring tricks to timing strategies, these legal methods could save you hundreds of thousands of dollars. This isn't just about tax cuts - it's about survival in a completely new business environment. Some rules are already in effect, others start when the bill is signed, and the penalties are automatic.
