In this podcast episode, I engage in a discussion about small business integrity and cultivating success through collaboration and professionalism. The episode is prompted by a listener's suggestion and focuses on experiences related to boutique businesses and vendor events.
I reminisce about my own experiences organizing and participating in such events, touching upon the challenges and opportunities faced within the business community.
I address various aspects of maintaining business integrity, including addressing content hijacking, using commercial images, and dealing with complaints about products not selling.
I emphasize the importance of clear communication, setting boundaries, and leading by example to create a positive and collaborative business environment.
I encourage self-auditing, creating a code of conduct, supporting ethical businesses, and sharing success stories as means to foster integrity and build trust.
