Episode 41 - Steve Young Shares his Entrepreneur-Investor Perspective

Management Consultant and Investment Expert Steve Young joins Steve Olds this week. He's also a Navy Officer and the CFO and General Counsel for Patriot Mission.

Many business owners have little clue about the economics or financial aspects of their business. But how can we as entrepreneurs "get smart" about how money really moves, really works in their business?

In their own consulting practice, Steve Young and his brother Fred help business owners "get things done" from a planning perspective. He says, entrepreneurs need to know where they are coming from and where you're going. They need to assess their strengths, weaknesses and determine if their idea "will sell" in the market.

Steve and his brother like to determine how "coach-able" a business owner is. Can they be truly objective about their own performance?  Can they look at their own business from an investor's point of view?

There are many tools available to help them measure. They must step back and determine the metrics or key goals - and what questions to be asking. They must learn to think like an investor.

Enjoy Steve Young's experience and insights on this episode.
