My Q&A podcasts are among some of my most popular and back in the day when I was publishing weekly articles (because podcasts did not exist), I always published Q&A episodes and everyone loved them. On this week's GPS Business podcast I answer the following questions: Do you have to borrow money to start a business? What are the best products and services to offer in your business? How do you handle difficult customers? When should I introduce or offer coaching in my business? How can I be an authentic resource for my customers? Get the expert answers to these questions and more on this week's Goals Profit & Soul Business podcast with Jennifer Hoffman, The Business Expert and Cash Flow Catalyst.

This is an honest Bschool review provided by someone who is not an affiliate and who took Bschool as a student. What I got from this experience is not what I expected and I wish there had been some unbiased reviews to offset the glowing reviews provided by BSchool affiliates. I share my experience of Bschool and what I think of this program as a student as an authority on business and technology who has been online since 2004 and who took the BSchool program because I thought I would learn some new marketing and social media techniques. That is not what I got as you'll hear in this week's Goals Profits and Soul Business podcast.

We are inundated with information about how to start a business. Unfortunately, it's all bits and pieces of information that don't fit together. Build a list or start a course, high ticket program or kickstart offer, speak on the stage or start a membership, and that's just a small sample of what's out there. And to make matters worse, much of what is available that is called 'business startup advice' is incomplete, wrong, and taught by people who do not know anything about business, have no business experience, and don't have business degrees. I have heard plenty of horror stories, you probably have too. Startup advice should be simple, straightforward, affordable, and easy to implement. Where do you start? In this week's podcast I talk about 5 things you need for business startup success. 

Are your contracts legal? Are you involved in a coaching or other program that you had to sign a contract for? Or, are you trying to get out of a contract and you’re being told you must pay the full amount of your contract even though you will no longer have access to the program and coaching? There has been a lot of contract abuse by people in the coaching community and it is hurting a lot of people. If this is affecting your life listen up because I am going to give you some tools to fight back and keep your money. We need to work together to stop contract abuse by unscrupulous, unethical, and dishonest coaches and business owners.

Marketing and Sales are important business activities and everyone talks about them today. But a lot of the information you get about sales and marketing is wrong. They are different aspects of your business and they are related but they are not the same thing.

If a family member asks to work with you in your business do you say yes or no? Are you comfortable with family members in your business?
