Making Good: Small Business Podcast

Want to make money, do something you love, AND make the world a better place? You're in the right place. Making Good is the podcast for small business owners who want to make a big impact. This podcast is about two things: building a strong small business, and using it as a tool for good. We cover topics like marketing, business philanthropy, finding community, doing purpose-driven work, mindset - and everything in between. If you have (or want) a small business and life that make a difference, this podcast is for you. I'm your host, Lauren Tilden, ex-corporate marketer turned maker and shop owner. I'm so glad you're here.
