The Ups and Downs of Building a Product Business with Megan from Second Scout.
What would you do if your factory closed down overnight? How would you cope?
Megan from Second Scout is a guest on the podcast today and generously shares her journey and some of the ups and downs of having a product-based business.
Last year, Megan went through a major down and we discuss how she was able to come back from it better than ever.
