Introducing our new podcast, Problem Solvers with Jason Feifer, which features business owners and CEOs who went through a crippling business problem and came out the other side happy, wealthy and growing. Feifer, BIZ Experiences's editor in chief, spotlights these stories so other business can avoid the same hardships. Listen below or click here to read more shownotes.

Every BIZ Experiences's journey starts with a big problem: That first hurdle -- and hopefully, that first solution. Small and sometimes simple as it may be, this first moment contains so much ingenuity and inspiration, and captures just how resourceful BIZ Experiencess must be to continue along their path.
