Summary: <p>To say you are “in Business” might be an intimidating thought. What if we replaced it with “crafter”? Or “musician”? Or “reseller”?

Our guests Professor Martin Edwards from Ole Miss and William Bettis from the firm of Butler Snow will give us some ideas.</p><br><p>If you’re enjoying this discussion of starting a business, Mr. Bettis was our guest on June 28th 2022.</p><p>And Professor Edwards was our guest to discuss Contracts on September 5th of 2023.
