Our kickoff topic will be the road to $10k/month: what little changes can you make to your business, especially as a new business owner, that add up to make you more profitable?
      In addition to that, consider what business-related topics you would like to discuss, and if possible, post them ahead of time in the replies to this calendar entry.
