Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs’ Podcast Who Sets the Pace?
In this episode of Business Brain, Shannon Jean and Dave Hamilton explore a deceptively simple question: who sets the pace in a business? The conversation digs into marketing that acts like camouflage—so effective it disappears—and why blending in can cost entrepreneurs attention and opportunity. Through unexpected examples, they highlight the importance of standing out intentionally instead of hiding in plain sight.
The episode also zeroes in on the power of small numbers, reminding listeners that momentum often starts with chasing hundred-dollar wins, not waiting for big breakthroughs. By focusing on selling early, tracking what actually matters, and keeping cash flowing, the show reinforces practical habits that help entrepreneurs regain control and build a business that supports a Charmed Life.
