Why Business Sales Don't Always Mean Success

It's National Veterans Small Business Week, and I thought this was a great time to have a conversation with someone who knows firsthand what it takes to build a business while serving in the military. Having a great business idea is one thing, but turning it into a business that actually makes money is another. There are a lot of things to figure out along the way, and sometimes the things you don't know about running a business can end up costing you the most.

In this episode, I'm talking with Charlynda Scales about her experience building Mutt's Sauce from a family recipe while serving in the Air Force. We get into the financial lessons she's learned, why sales don't always mean success, and how having the right systems and people in place can make a difference.

Charlynda is an Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, entrepreneur, and co-founder of the 6888 Kitchen Incubator. She's also using what she's learned from her own businesses to help other entrepreneurs better understand their finances and build businesses that can last.
