254 - What If You Could Skip the Startup Struggle? - Become Your Own Boss: Tips for Starting and Growing Your Own Small Business

In this episode of Monica chats with Trish Skelfo, a leading franchise broker who built her business from zero to seven figures—starting with just $1,500 and a borrowed garage room. Trish shares how one big risk (and one small ad) changed her life, and how her cutting-edge AI platform is helping others find the right franchise fit—without wasting time or money. Her story is proof that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel to own a business…you just need the right roadmap and support.
