  • Summary

  • The Mind Your Small Business podcast aims to make the lives of small business owners that little bit easier. We cut through the complicated technical jargon and out-of-touch business speak and get to the heart of what it means to be a small business owner. In this series, we speak to fresh-out-the-box business owners who have recently launched startups, right through to well-known entrepreneurs with years of experience. Our guests open up about the challenges of being a business owner, from tackling the tax return to managing the marketing and everything else in between.
