  • Survive Your First Year in Business to Thrive with Tammy Johnston
    Jun 26 2024

    Want to survive your first year in business? According to Google, 20% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open… but I bet that number is even higher for freelancers because so many people start, get stressed out, realize they have no idea what they’re doing, and then give up a few months down the line. Luckily, we have Tammy Johnston to fix that for us.

    In today’s episode, she shares how when you build a strong foundation, your chances of succeeding (and sticking with it) increase dramatically. Entrepreneurship doesn’t have to be difficult, but there are key action items you need to keep moving forward, and Tammy will share that and much more with you!

    * The 8 foundations every business needs to have to succeed

    * How to transition from “JOB” (Just Over Broke) to stable income
