Podcasts about starting a business

Heather Ashley started Cove Creek in 2022 with a computer, an LLC, and a willingness to take a risk. What began as a one-person operation has grown into a successful team of six designers serving dealers and manufacturers across the industry. In this episode, Heather shares how she built Cove Creek through relationships, word of mouth, continuous learning, and a commitment to creating the kind of flexible, supportive workplace she wanted for herself and her team. She also reflects on the challenges of working independently, the importance of finding good people, and how her team is thinking about the future of design and AI. This is more than a story about business growth, it's a conversation about building something meaningful and getting to write the story your own way.

In this special episode of Raising Wild Hearts, I'm stepping onto the other side of the microphone and sharing my guest appearance on the Beyond the 9 to 5 Ceiling Summit.We talk about what happens when the life you've built—or the way you've been working—no longer fits the woman you've become. I share my own journey from leaving a traditional career, through entrepreneurship and motherhood, to realizing that sometimes creating the life you truly want requires slowing down, listening inward, and having the courage to choose differently.We explore the tension between ambition and presence, why perceived security can keep us stuck, what it means to start before you feel ready, and how small courageous choices begin to build an entirely different future.We also talk about purpose, community, motherhood, redefining success, and why finding your people can make all the difference when you're walking a path that doesn't look traditional.If you've been feeling a quiet pull toward something different—more intention, more connection, more purpose, or simply a life that feels more like yours—this conversation is for you.

Missy Tannen spent five years teaching third grade and a decade as a stay-at-home mom before she ever thought about starting a company. But when she couldn't find bedding that was high-quality, ethically sourced, and traceable, she and her husband Scott started Boll & Branch out of pure frustration. On this episode of She Pivots, Missy talks about betting the family's life savings on an idea, borrowing against their own house even while sales were taking off, and what it took to scale from a garage operation to a 200-person company without losing what made it different in the first place. She's brutally honest about the mess behind the milestones (a full batch of ivory sheets that came out green!) and about running a family business—that’s now worth over $250 million—with her husband while raising their kids.

Learn how to manage your finances before starting a business. Plus: what's next for the rapidly growing prediction markets. What should you have in place financially before leaving your job to start a business? Hosts Sean Pyles, CFP®, and Elizabeth Ayoola bring on small business Nerd Rosalie Murphy to answer a question from listener Blake, who is 27 and on the verge of walking away from a steady paycheck to launch their own company. Together, they examine how much cash you really need before going months without income, what to do about existing high-interest debt before you launch, how to handle taxes when your employer is no longer withholding them for you, which retirement accounts could make sense when you're self-employed, and how separating your business and personal finances from day one could protect your personal assets if things go wrong. Then, what are prediction markets, and what happens when billions of dollars start trading on election outcomes? Senior news writer Anna Helhoski interviews Aaron Klein, a senior fellow at the Center on Regulation and Markets at the Brookings Institution, about the booming prediction market industry. They discuss how platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket differ from both stock trading and gambling, whether the legal distinction between a "swap" and a "wager" actually matters for everyday users, how these platforms are navigating state gambling laws, and what it could mean when millions of dollars are wagered on whether a political party wins control of Congress.

Leaving a job is not just a career decision. It is a benefits, tax, cash flow, retirement, and risk-management decision too. A lot of people only think about replacing income. But when you leave a job, you may also lose employer health insurance, 401(k) contributions, disability coverage, paid time off, predictable paychecks, and tax withholding.https://www.instagram.com/delano.saporu/?hl=en.

In this episode of Real World Entrepreneurship, Bhairav and Alan dig into a question every business owner wrestles with: what's actually worth worrying about? Between cash flow, co-founders, market reception and the things you genuinely cannot see coming, it's easy to spend energy in the wrong places. Alan and Bhairav talk through how they've each dealt with the unexpected over the years, including a deeply personal story from Alan about a cancer diagnosis that tested everything he believed about planning and control. What You Will Learn From Listening - A simple test for deciding whether something is actually worth worrying about - Why detailed planning gives a false sense of control, and why that's not actually a problem - The difference between risks worth preparing for and risks not worth the effort - How COVID exposed which businesses could adapt and which couldn't - Why Eisenhower's two quotes on planning are more useful than any risk register - How Bhairav's experience selling Atom challenged his own assumptions about strategy - Why founders should run a “hit by a bus” scenario on themselves, not just key staff - Alan's personal account of being diagnosed with cancer two weeks after buying a company - What the “trough of disillusionment” is and why it hits most founders around six months in - How to tell the difference between problems worth carrying yourself and problems you can hand off

Join Lindsay for a Dear FoundHer... Forum Virtual Open House and Networking Event on Thursday, August 20th. Click here to save your seat, it's free. She spent over a decade scaling two of Europe's most successful tech companies, reaching the C-suite along the way. Then she moved back to her hometown and nobody knew her name. That tension is the heart of this episode of Dear FoundHer, and it sets up one of the clearest examples of starting a business after corporate you will hear this year.Host Lindsay Pinchuk talks with Christine de Wendel, co-founder and U.S. CEO of Sunday, the digital checkout platform used in over 3,500 restaurants across the U.S., U.K., and France. Christine spent over a decade scaling two of Europe's biggest e-commerce companies before leaving corporate at 40 to build a company of her own. Her story shows what transitioning from employee to founder really looks like once the safety net disappears.Christine describes the three humbling months she spent building connections in Atlanta before the idea for Sunday took shape, and how a phone call from an old friend turned into a co-founding partnership. She also opens up about startup funding and whether having a male co-founder changed how easily she raised capital.Lindsay and Christine talk candidly about networking for women, credibility, and why making a career pivot later in life can be an advantage instead of a setback. If you have ever wondered whether starting a business after corporate means starting from zero, Christine's story offers a clear answer: the experience, relationships, and skills you have already built still count. Press play to hear how she used them to help raise $145 million for Sunday.Episode Breakdown:00:00 From Tech Executive to Unknown in Atlanta02:56 Christine's Path From Bain to Paris Tech05:47 Why She Waited Until 40 to Start08:25 Uprooting the Family and Moving to Atlanta11:43 The Phone Call That Became Sunday14:47 How the Sunday App Works16:33 A Review Turns Into Real Restaurant Change19:08 How Sunday Makes Money20:57 The 2021 Raise and What Came After22:45 Doubling Transaction Volume24:25 Why Restaurants Are Slow to Adopt26:15 Building Brand Ambassadors and Referral Networks29:47 Funding, Her Co-Founder, and Gender in Fundraising32:55 Motherhood, Pacing, and Doing It All36:46 Three Tips for Women Starting OutConnect with Christine de Wendel:Follow Sunday App on InstagramConnect with Christine on LinkedInSubscribe to The FoundHer Files Follow Dear FoundHer on Instagram Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one.Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. But this conversation goes far beyond Matt's career. His book, The Invisible Profession, explores how the dental laboratory industry arrived at a place where technicians and laboratories are often undervalued, pushed into price competition, and expected to simply keep their heads down and produce. Matt shares his thoughts on the "million little things" that shaped the industry, the danger of becoming a "busy fool," and why laboratories need to stop competing solely on price and start becoming known for the value, expertise, and partnership they bring to the dental team. Elvis, Barb, and Matt also talk about the changing landscape of digital dentistry, AI, 3D printing, speed, service, and why the labs that embrace change and remain agile will be the ones positioned for the future. It's an honest, thought-provoking, and ultimately optimistic conversation about where the dental laboratory profession has been, where it is today, and where it can go next.Special Guest: Matt Everatt.

JARED'S TIP: "Understand your technology well enough, or your capability well enough, that you can articulate to that need and then also understand the implications of that articulation, i.e., am I reducing cost, am I reducing burden, am I reducing friction? I hope you're doing one of those, because otherwise, people just aren't taking on new burden and new friction right now."

One of the questions I receive from my clients is how to transfer funds in QuickBooks Desktop, and QuickBooks Online.  Both have an extremely simple way to do this, but if you are unsure about how to do it, or you do it incorrectly, you could be causing your balance sheet and your income statement to reflect the wrong information.  Recording all your transactions is important to make sure your bank reconciliation goes smoothly.  Making sure each of these transactions is classified to the correct account will not only ensure your transactions are showing up in the correct accounts, but it will also make sure that your balance sheet and your income statement are accurate.  You don't want to overstate your income by recording a transaction that should have been a simple transfer from one account to another.  Today I am going to talk about how easily you can transfer your funds with one simple entry.  Listen in to this week's episode if you are getting ready to start your small business, you're a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, virtual online bookkeeper or virtual assistant, and you are either looking into or already using QuickBooks Desktop or QuickBooks Online to make sure you are using this simple and effective way to easily transfer funds between accounts… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Have you ever based a decision you were making on intuition?  Do you ever let your intuition guide you in life?  The basic definition of intuition is to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning.  When you fully understand your wants and needs in life, intuition can be something you rely on.  But what happens when you may not be in sync with what you really want in life?  Is it okay to trust or follow your intuition then?  Let's dive in…   Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

In this Bread & Wine conversation, we pour a glass, get honest about the emotional highs and lows of entrepreneurship, and share what it's really like when the excitement of starting a business gives way to self-doubt, marketing struggles, and sleepless nights.

When you think about a paperless business, does this sound like a dream come true, or do you view it more as a nightmare?  There are many businesses that don't even offer a paper receipt anymore.  So, when you don't have a receipt, how are you supposed to even manage it?  My clients will ask me about the best way to manage their receipts, and unfortunately, my answer is normally:  It depends.  I know this isn't a good answer, and it surely isn't what the client wants to hear, but the main reason for the unclear answer really is because every business is unique, and every business owner is unique.  I always talk to my clients to see what the best option is for them.  I want to make sure the option they select is something they are able to do, and they are consistent.  Your overall goal when setting up a system to manage your receipts should be to make it as simple as possible while developing a system where you will be able to find your receipts when needed.  Today, I am going to talk about the best ways to manage your receipts using paper and paperless options.  If you feel like this is an area in your business where you struggle to have a good system in place, or if you already have a system in place, but wonder if there is an easier way to manage your receipts, you definitely want to listen in.  This episode will be helpful for you whether you are just starting your small business, you're a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, virtual online bookkeeper, or virtual assistant.  Every business has receipts they need to manage, and after this episode, you will be able to decide which system will work best for you to be able to locate your receipts easily when you need to… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Automating your transactions is one of the major ways you can save time when you are doing your bookkeeping.  By utilizing systems such as QuickBooks Online's bank feeds, you can definitely save a lot of time rather than manually entering each and every transaction, but the only way you will ensure you have reliable information is to make sure you have it set up correctly.  I've seen clients who have set up bank feeds and not follow the correct steps, who look at their financial statements and wonder why nothing looks right.  This is exactly what happens when you hear the phrase garbage in / garbage out.  If you don't take the time to set everything up correctly in the beginning, you won't be able to rely on your financial statements.  You don't want to find yourself putting in all the work only to have inaccurate information.  In today's episode, I am going to walk you through how you should set up and use the bank feeds in QuickBooks Online to ensure you are using it to its fullest potential.  By setting up your bank account connection, managing bank rules, matching transactions, and adding transactions correctly in QuickBooks Online, you will not only save time but also have reliable financial statements, allowing you to make smart business decisions.  If you already use bank feeds or if you have been thinking about getting them set up, but are unsure how to use this function correctly, listen in to find out what your next steps should be to take full advantage of this feature, whether you are just starting your small business, you're a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, virtual online bookkeeper or virtual assistant…  Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

What happens when the career you've worked decades to build no longer aligns with the life you want to live? In this inspiring episode, Allison sits down with entrepreneur and Sun Drunk founder Cat Lepetit to discuss her remarkable journey from leading some of the world's most recognizable beauty brands to building a thriving lifestyle business rooted in joy, purpose, and coastal living. After spending more than two decades climbing the corporate ladder with companies like Sephora, Benefit Cosmetics, Makeup Forever, and Murad, Cat found herself questioning what success truly meant. The COVID-19 pandemic became a catalyst for reflection, prompting her to reevaluate her priorities, reconnect with herself, and imagine a different future. Cat shares the behind-the-scenes story of leaving corporate leadership, navigating uncertainty, exploring multiple business ideas, and ultimately receiving the inspiration that became Sun Drunk—a beach lifestyle brand designed to bring happiness, color, and ease into everyday life. Throughout the conversation, Cat opens up about the challenges of reinvention, the importance of listening to your intuition, embracing discomfort, and having the courage to start over—even when others don't understand your vision. Whether you're dreaming of launching a business, considering a major career pivot, or simply seeking more alignment in your life, this episode will encourage you to trust yourself, take the next step, and create a life that feels as good as it looks. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How to navigate a major career transition Why success and fulfillment aren't always the same thing The role intuition plays in entrepreneurship How COVID inspired personal and professional reinvention What it takes to build a lifestyle brand from scratch Why flexibility, family, and purpose matter in business The power of embracing uncertainty and starting over Lessons from scaling global brands and launching a startup

Launching a new business sounds exciting, and it is, but there are plenty of challenges nobody talks about. In this episode, Mike Garvey pulls back the curtain on the launch of ROPED (Robotic Outdoor Power Equipment Distributors) and shares the lessons he's learned from becoming a Kress distributor, building a mobile showroom, landing the first customers, creating partnerships, and navigating the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. Whether you're starting a new company, adding a new division, or considering a major pivot in your business, this episode is packed with real-world insights from the front lines of building something from the ground up.

Today's episode is another TikTok live I did recently where I answer people's questions. I talk about how to pick the right business based not on trends or hype, but on self-awareness, passion, and what you can actually execute on. We discuss why the economy shouldn't stop you from starting, why everything comes down to knowing your strengths, and why posting content at scale is still the biggest opportunity. I also break down live social shopping, the truth about oversaturated markets, how to build discipline, and why accountability is the starting point for breaking bad habits. Hope you enjoy!

You started the year off strong, you set all your goals for how you wanted to do your bookkeeping this year, and just like that, it's June, and now is the time for you to do a mid-year bookkeeping and financial checkup to see how your small business is doing.  Time flies by so quickly, and before you know it, we will be flipping the calendar to the month of December.  Today, we are doing a checkup to make sure you have stayed on track with your small business bookkeeping.  Now is the time to make sure you are doing everything you can to stay up to date, and if you find that you have slipped a little, this episode will help you get back on track quickly and make sure you are able to stay up to date going forward so that you can ensure you have a smooth transition at year end.  This halfway point is also a great time to assess how your business is doing.  Are you meeting your sales goals?

Do you understand why we often tend to fall off the wagon or stop working towards our goals when it gets hard?  Our natural instinct, or our brain's way of survival, is to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy.  It is called the motivational triad, and it's true for our physical, mental, and emotional needs, and it makes sense that we would want to make sure that we are not hurt, we enjoy ourselves, and we exert as little energy as possible to survive.  This is just how our brain thinks, so anything that feels like it's too hard to do or is too draining on us emotionally or physically causes our brain to want to avoid it.  This is why it can be hard to persevere, but you can persevere, even when it gets hard.  Let's dive in…   Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.
