In this episode, we chat with Ariette Hung of Ariette Hung Events to hear about her journey of starting a business as a wedding coordinator. We talk about using Facebook groups for lead generation and more.
I learn a few things that I knew nothing about beforehand. Did you know that wedding coordinators and planners have a professional association? It makes sense since it allows people in their industry to come together share best practices and keep the quality of their craft at a certain level.

On this episode of "Get Started" on the StartMyBiz Podcast, I chat with Anita Chew a marketing and graphic design agency owner. This episode was pretty relaxed and felt like less of an interview and more of a conversation. We dive deep into the issues of the MLM business model, selling duct tape goods door-to-door, and how a well intended law aiming to protect the working class in an impoverished nation is inadvertently creating the poverty they hoped to eliminate.
On this episode of "Get Started" on the StartMyBiz Podcast, I chat with Ruth Dorsainville a serial entrepreneur who was retired twice and got back into the game.

We also discuss her entrepreneurial origin story with a particular focus on the circumstances in her life at the time that led her to wanting to start her journey.
Prepares your mind because we dive deep in the heart of a very dark experience that is too common amongst entrepreneurs. Loneliness.
