Oh Mwangi, I read your title: “Tips from an African Woman Who Started and Sold a Business for Six Figures” and then I see a picture of a white elderly man right below the title, I cracked up!!! Thanks for making my morning. 😛
@Caustic: Glad I could be of help. I thought I would put in a subtle reference to her industry…hmm, I guess the subtlety aint there on that one 😛
Mwangi, this podcast is really informative. My mom wants to anza (start) a nursing agency business so this podcast is really timely. Please send it to me like you did last time so that i can tuma (send) it to her. I will really apprecite it.
@rags: Glad it was informative and hope it was useful. I will send it to you…btw if anyone else wants me to send them a copy of this podcast while my podcasting service is down please let me know and I will gladly oblige.
I think what I will do for the question and answer edition is I will record a podcast where I’ll explain why exactly you can’t download the podcasts right now via Itunes.
