Today we have a deviation from the usual interview style episode.

This will be a short solo episode.

We are going to discuss how Jack got his first customer for an old business.

So many people have been in this situation; whether they are struggling to get new customers, or have never had a customer in the first place.

Sometimes listening to the way someone else thought through a problem can help. That's what this episode is for.

We discuss the problem, some of the roadblocks that came up while trying to solve it, and some things for you to think about if you are facing a situation like this.

This episode was hosted by Jack Ferguson.
