The Small Business Big Marketing Podcast with Tim Reid

Marketing should be a major part of running a successful small business, but so too should the health of its owner and employees. That's why in this episode we leave marketing behind and talk to Marin Lazic, owner of Balmaine personal training business Z-Best-Fitness. Marin first came to Timbo's attention via Twitter, by providing some very timely advice about how to best set-up his office to avoid further neck operations(!) and to maintain a healthier approach to business. So, sit back and grab a celery juice as we dig deep on Marin's tips to improve the performance of the small business owner. It's all about increasing productivity.
