The Real Reason Businesses Are Closing (And How to Stay Ahead) - Podcast Episode 349
Innovation. It's not just a buzzword, it's the lifeline of business. In this episode of the Small Business Made Simple Podcast, I’m diving into what happens when businesses stop evolving. Spoiler alert: they start disappearing.
Think iconic brands like Katies and Just Jeans or long-running shows like The Project and Q&A, gone, not because they weren’t loved, but because they didn’t innovate.
So, let me ask you this, when was the last time you did something innovative in your business?
In this honest and action-packed episode, I explore:
What innovation really means for small business owners (and no, it’s not just shiny tech)
Why marketing and innovation are the only two things that truly matter in business
How I’m walking the innovation talk by launching the 2025 Social Media & Marketing Conference
Whether you’re stuck in the “this is how we’ve always done it” cycle or ready to shake things up, this episode is your nudge (or maybe your push!) to get curious, get courageous, and start innovating.
Tune in now, because doing what you’ve always done may not get you where you want to go next.
