So...you’ve got that dream business alllll planned out in your head. You know what you want to do, you’re feeling motivated to get started, you want to start makin’ money honayyy. 

BUT WAIT. Hold up. Not quite…

Instagram can make it seem like anyone can wake up and start a killer business in one day, but that ain’t true. Well, maybe you CAN, but it’s not a smart plan. 

Host Corri McFadden is an industry vet and has seen one too many businesses end up failing because they didn’t start strong bones of a business. They didn’t take the time to get processes in place before jumping in, and ultimately that can kill your company (and your sanity, hopes and dreams). Don’t let that be you!

In today’s show, Corri gets into the depths of smart business essentials that you probably haven’t thought of before. The laws, budgets, insurance, crises, payroll, and about a million other things you might have been putting off (or not aware of at all). She’s even sharing an awesome exercise that you can do TODAY that will help you budget for your biz - and set your own salary (in a practical sense).

You’re probably a little freaked out - it’s OK. You should be. It’s a lot. But consider this your definitive guide to getting started. Grab those headphones, that coffee (or tequila)...and let’s start building that biz.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
