Most small business owners do not fail because the idea was wrong. They fail because the math never worked. Monica Allen co-founded Zeus's Closet, an Atlanta-based branded apparel and embroidery business she has run for more than two decades, and launched the Become Your Own Boss podcast after watching the same pricing conversation play out at her front counter more times than she can count. In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Monica reveals why pricing without counting every cost is one of the fastest ways a business runs out of money in the first five years, how her podcast accidentally built a coaching business she never planned for, and why owning your podcast feed and email list protects you in ways social media never will. If you are a small business owner or podcaster building something that lasts, this episode is for you.
