Jackie from Soilz Alive: Learning

My guest, Jackie Yong from Soilz Alive, describes herself as a curious human, compost enthusiast and hair lover…three things that you wouldn’t think you could turn into a business. But she has and it’s great. It wasn’t all smooth sailing though and Jackie generously shares her ups and downs in this chat.

I hope you enjoy it!

What is Small Town Business with Erika McInerney?

Small Town Business shines a light on people making big things happen in small towns, regional and rural communities.

Each episode is in two-parts. In Part one, we chat with a small-town business owner, hand picked because they have a particularly special story to tell. They generously share the ups and downs and all the in-betweens of their business, before part two where I draw out one of the key points of the discussion into a specific learning with a focus on marketing and business development.

Follow along for inspiring stories from community-driven, authentic people. Then let Erika McInerney - that’s me your host - teach you how you can take that inspiration and turn into into action for your business.

Whether you’re already living in a small town, thinking of moving, or wondering what business is like outside the city - this podcast is for you.
