    Running a business can be a lonely life, especially when your loved ones don’t understand the unique challenges of entrepreneurial life. Every business owner needs an advisory board to share ideas and address challenges with. One tool that addresses these issues is the mastermind group. They come in all shapes and sizes. On this episode of Business: Engaged!, we talk with small business consult and mastermind group expert Karyn Greenstreet. She will discuss the options, formats, and success factors so you can search out or even create the right mastermind group for your needs.

    So what do you get the person who has everything? Services. They are a great way to shop local and support a small business. I tell you how to do it and give you ideas for services that make perfect gifts for your loved ones.
