In this week's episode, Micah moves to the interview seat while his wife, Rebecca Durling, takes the role of interviewer to ask him questions about his experiences as a small business owner! Micah covers the whys and hows of starting and running his own video production company as well as the many obstacles he's encountered along the way, such as customer acquisition, buying a second small business, and navigating both busy and quiet seasons. He also covers a topic that most certainly has NOT been an obstacle: being business partners with his wife. 😉

Come along on our journey as we learn how to effectively use social media to grow our business! Social media is a crucially important tool for businesses to utilize effectively in order to make connections, build brand awareness, and drive sales, but it can be daunting to know where to start--and it can be even more daunting to try to figure out all of the myriad ingredients to the social media secret sauce of success. (It's an intricate recipe)
Our goal with this podcast is to help ourselves, and other small businesses and start-up influencers like us, to find those ingredients and, in turn, grow our social media followings and online brands--and we want it to be a free tool for you! There are hundreds of expensive courses on social media management online, but it's almost equally as difficult to know valuable those courses will be to you as it is to know how to manage your own social media. We want to provide a way for us and our listeners to learn together. We'll be talking to social media experts, influencers, and business owners and picking their brains about what worked for them, what didn't work for them, and what social media tips and trends are just hype! We can't wait to embark on this expedition with you as we learn how to love social media together!
