I’m from this school of thought;

Military veterans can be great franchise owners. It’s just that we don’t live in a perfect world, and some people, veterans or not, just shouldn’t be small business/franchise owners at all. No way. no how. (For lots of reasons)

Now back to the ladies from Boost Your Business Radio. Who are they?

Rieva Lesonsky owns GrowBiz Media
She was the Editorial Director of Entrepreneur Magazine for 25 years, where she helped millions of Americans launch their own businesses.

Angie A. Swartz owns Square Martini Media

Angie helps business owners incorporate social media into their business strategies. Swartz is also the host of weekly radio show Twitter Talk Radio, which helps business owners use Twitter in business; the co-owner of Twitter Attraction, a blog devoted to “Tweverything;” and the founder of Six Figure Moms Club , a live and virtual support network for executive women.

You’ll find the interview here.
