Small Business Owners Community

The daily show

Businessing with Pat Miller

The daily live show where small business owners figure out what to do next. Weekdays at 11am Central.

What the show is

One hour, every weekday, live. Three things happen.

Businessing with Pat Miller is a daily live show for people who own a small business. It runs every weekday at 11am Central, an hour long, live on YouTube with an owner chat running the whole time, and it’s a podcast and a YouTube episode by the afternoon. I started it because nobody taught any of us how to run a business, and the fastest way I know to figure out what to do next is to work a real problem out loud with other owners watching.

Every show has the same three parts.

  • The Businessing Big Story of the Day. One thing happening in the world that matters to an owner, and the action to take on it this week. Not a news recap. An answer.
  • An Idea Slam. One owner brings a real problem with a real number on it, and I work it live, without a net. You leave with a next step and a name to call.
  • Our AI Story of the Day. What changed in AI this week and what a non-technical owner should do about it, so you stay on top of the biggest change for business owners since the internet.

It’s for the person who signs the checks. Solo, or a team of twenty. Not for employees, and not for anybody whose first move is a pitch. If that’s you, you’ll fit right in. Businessing is the daily live show where small business owners figure out what to do next. Hosted by Pat Miller, founder of the Small Business Owners Community: owners only, nobody pitching, $9 a month.

Also available as a podcast.
