The PreBoot Cincy Podcast
Summary: A podcast for everyday entrepreneurs and the stories before the startup. This podcast is based out of Cincinnati, OH and seeks to tell the stories of local entrepreneurs. Those who have ideas that they want to put into the world but are not sure how to get there. How do you leave the security of your day job, the status quo, or the your daily routine and step out over the ledge into the unknown world of trying to start your own business. On this podcast I will share with you my journey, as I seek to do this, as it is playing out in real time. As well as tell the stories of those who have gone before us to start their own business. I am driven by a simple mantra. I want to make things better by making better things and think that the world needs our best ideas. I want to help you get your idea out into the world by thinking through a simple but effective framework that helps you understand and evaluate your idea (risk, runway and reward) as well as yourself (tenacity, capacity, and financ-ity). It you want to connect either follow on twitter @PreBootPodcast or go to www.theprebootpodcast.com. Enjoy!
