In this episode, Melissa Fradenburg, Financial Advisor, RJFS, and Chris Cooper, owner of Zeppelin Cleaning Services, discuss what it takes to be a business owner. Chris started his commercial cleaning business 13 years ago, out of the trunk of his car, and now it is the fastest-growing commercial cleaning company in Southeast Michigan. He shares his thoughts on getting a business off the ground and highlights qualities that help a business owner to be successful.

We will discuss:

·       Why company culture is so important.

·       Why 80% of businesses fail in the first year. 

·       No matter what business you plan to start, it is about people.

·       How to get people on board with your vision.

·       Why now is a great time to start a business.
