Entrepreneurship: A Clear Path to Startup Success

Jim Beach

Entrepreneurship 

2/9/26

In this episode, we break down an entrepreneurship playbook for starting and growing a business - without relying on big ideas, passion, or excessive risk. 

Jim Beach, host of School for Startups, joins us to challenge the most common startup myths that stop founders before they ever make money, and shatters the belief that success requires a brilliant, original idea.

Jim shares how he built a 100-station radio footprint without traditional syndication, using the distribution as leverage to grow credibility, speaking opportunities, and book sales. We also get candid about business naming, trademarks, and mistakes that quietly kill startups.

This conversation is essential listening for anyone interested in entrepreneurship, small business ideas, starting a business with little money, realistic startup advice, and building sustainable income without hype.
