Is it possible to be an entrepreneur and have serenity? Successful business owners challenge the idea that these two entities cannot co-exist with lively discussions of real-life business woes, their secrets to success, and where they land on the path to finding serenity in both their business and personal lives! Who are the voices in the podcast? A group of business owners with diverse skill sets coming together to share stories of starting their businesses, as well as their successes and challenges, all in hopes of imparting knowledge and inspiration, and a chance to feel connected with others. Our podcast features a panel of six, charismatic women: an accountant, a lawyer, two grant specialists (tax credits and government grants), a risk and finance consultant, and a marketing expert. Our virtual fireside-chat style is casual, yet informative, while we address a wide range of topics and questions from entrepreneurs who don’t know where to turn to for direction. Drawing from our real-world experiences in the often daunting world of entrepreneurship, we provide resources and advice for business owners. Whether you are in the early planning stages, you run a well-established business or you are looking to expand your operation, we can provide you with the guidance to thrive in these ever-changing times. Our podcast is a forum to give back and help our community of amazing entrepreneurs while we aspire to achieve the elusive notion of “Serenity Now”.

This podcast is aptly named as our panel speaks to the owner of a Vancouver Island-based printing shop, Better Print Victoria. Tyler McLoughlin, owner of Better Print Victoria, discusses his business’ growth over the last eight years, and the challenges associated with expanding his workforce in order to accommodate the demand for his full-service printing company.
In this episode, our panel of seasoned professionals weigh the costs and benefits associated with bringing on additional hires, and being aware of when to take that next step in your business’ growth cycle. We debate the merits of hiring a junior over senior role, and relay the importance of streamlining the training process.
We also dive deeper into how to access grants and leverage ‘good’ debt to expand your workforce, and thus, your production capabilities in order to meeting growing demand.
Lastly, we broach the topic of when to ‘fire’ clients, how to choose the right clients, and how to focus your greatest efforts on where the money lies.
The Serenity Now team was excited to help Tyler dive deep into these topics, analyze the various revenue streams that make up his business model, and provide him with insights and resources that could guide Better Print Victoria’s expansion in the near future!
