Simple Sense for Small Business Linda Rey & Trevor | Glitch Gurus

Welcome to the Simple Sense for Small Business podcast where talk about mistakes we’ve made, seen, fixed and lived to tell the tale. 



In this week’s Glitch digest, we share one of the most misinformed topics among business owners and how they’re sometimes scammed when trying to overcome this epic Glitch.



I flew solo for two Glitches due to Trevor having a “Spring Fever” you can’t see my air quotes. But, I chat about how sometimes we can get distracted by the latest trends in technology but what about your team and their talent? In other words do you focus on equipment over employees.



And I venture into one of my favorite topics: Acquisition vs. Retention when it comes to new business development strategies because of the inherent attrition stats we must face each year. That’s just 3. There are 4 more.



Before we launch into this week’s digest, let’s talk about Biz Glitch 366 and how it could relate to May being MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH.



Running a business isn't just about balance sheets and brand strategies—it's an emotional rollercoaster, with highs that take your breath away and lows that test your spirit. 



It's thrilling yet taxing, and our mental health is the anchor that keeps us resilient, curious, and robust in the face of adversity.



By spotlighting common pitfalls and the strategies to sidestep them, we help you reduce the mental load. This proactive approach doesn't just safeguard your business—it protects your peace of mind, minimizing the stress that can lead to burnout and keep you from your full potential.

So tune in, take notes, and transform your tests into triumphs. 



Remember, it's not just about surviving the business world—it's about thriving within it, mentally and emotionally equipped for whatever comes your way.

We bantered about how even though we felt we were doing all the right things, we still got hit with this Glitch and LOST THE FIGHT!



Those are just 3, there are 4 more.



But before we get into all this juiciness, let’s update you on what is Biz Glitch 366. May brings a lot of different quirky holidays but one of them competes with Cinco de Mayo.

But before we unleash all of this magnificence, you’re probably wondering why investing $97 for all 366 glitches is not a mistake.



This week’s metaphor to share what the glitches are about surrounds how April 25th is National Telephone Day.
