In this episode…
Imagine quitting your corporate-America job, never being an entrepreneur, and spending your life savings to buy a franchise. Then months later, someone else is about to buy the same franchise at a location 12 minutes from yours. If you let that happen, anything they do wrong will affect your business and erode your life savings.
You can’t let your life savings be at the mercy of someone else’s actions. And you don’t have the money to afford a new location. While trying to figure a way out, you’re diagnosed with cancer. How do you handle it all? Lisa Riley conquered cancer and went on to open a third location. Want to find out more about Lisa’s story?
Listen to this Inspired Insider Podcast episode with host Dr. Jeremy Weisz featuring Lisa Riley live from the Entrepreneurs’ Organization Global Leadership Conference. They discuss Lisa’s journey into entrepreneurship and owning a Pinot’s Pallance franchise, her efforts to keep the business alive over the pandemic, balancing being a mom and owning a business, conquering cancer, hitting a business milestone, and more!
