#26: Want to Make a Difference in the World Around You? Start a Business for Good!

Jul 07, 2021
 

Hey you!

On this episode we’re talking all about how to build a business for good! I am a big believer that if you want to make a significant social change, you should be starting a business. And that business is a Social Enterprise (Don’t worry! It's just a fancy way of saying a business for good).

Building a business for good combines the advocacy of a non-profit with a business for profit. It’s all about aligning making profit in your business while supporting, advocating, and making a lasting impact in the world.
