Matt and Sue are often asked to speak to university students and provide career advice. We both found the college experience built a foundation to do many things in life, and not just a single career. Those experiences centered around specific classes or subjects, and we both attribute our love of rhetoric to our professor, Dr. Kim Phipps. We answer frequent questions we receive in this episode, such as:

• What is valuable about the college/university experience today?
• What skills do two business owners think are the most important? 
• How did college/university prepare us for what we do today?
• How do you know when it is time to go out on your own?
• How do you prepare for starting your own business?

 We get a little personal in talking through some of our job history, stress of starting a business and how to survive a start-up.  Issues of credit, office space, taxes, hiring, making payroll and the wonderful memories of a cat walking in front of the camera during a webinar come up in our start-up experiences. We invite you to listen in on one of our more candid and personal discussions on the subject of owning a business and managing success, failure and personal fulfillment.
