A lot can be learned from failure, but that’s just sad and depressing. “Yes, We Are Open” is a podcast that tells the stories of those that survive. How did they do it? What can we learn? Al Grego travels the country to tell these stories of challenge and perseverance. Whether you’re a small business owner yourself, or you’re thinking of starting one someday, these cautionary and motivational stories will provide you with the lessons and inspiration to help you on your way.
