Heroes of the New Economy
Heroes of the Covid Economy celebrated those business owners who somehow stayed open during the war on COVID. The war is over (in its full blown iteration) but small business owners continue.
This podcast continues to create a forum to learn from each other, to shout out your passion, your why’s, and your how’s.
We invite owners to share how they’re doing, what possibilities they are creating and celebrate their business and their journey.

What would you call a guy that was in a shack in Maine with no running water, no electricity, a baby and a wife, that now funs a caramel company and general store ..... I call him David Herzog! We'll be talking to David this week on Heroes of the Covid Economy!
Dave Herzog is the owner of a Caramel manufacturing and retail business in McMinnville, OR. This is his story. We discuss how he started the business, manufacturing, the challenge of finding distribution, marketing and the difficulties of keeping a business OPEN during the Covid economy. We discuss how he finances the business during the pandemic - PPP, grants, government loans. Additionally we talk about the wear and tear on his personal and family life.
