Small business owner to interview to learn a little more about their personal story

Please find a small business owner to interview to learn a little more about their personal story. If you have a family member or friend who owns a business, this would be an awesome opportunity to learn more about their story. If not, you can ask a local business owner if you can have just a few minutes of their time. Here are a few questions to ask:

(1) Why did you decide to start a business or take over an existing small business?

(2) What skills/resources did you have to be successful in this business?

(3) Is this a family-owned business? If so, who works for the business in your family? Do you have a succession plan?

(4) What advice would you give to others who are thinking about starting a business or purchasing an existing business?

You create a discussion post about your business owner interview. Please be creative with this post and include a flyer, PowerPoint, other visuals, etc.
