How To Protect Your Business When Employees Leave | Ep. 69 | Start It or Scrap It Podcast
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when employees leave… and start competing with you?
In this episode of Start It or Scrap It, we break down a real-world scenario where a company gets split apart—and what it means for founders, employees, and growth.
We get into:
- Non-competes vs non-solicitation (and what they actually protect)
- Why employees leave and take others with them
- How private equity deals can trigger unexpected business shifts
- The difference between experienced operators and people guessing
- A marketing channel with extremely high close rates that most businesses misunderstand
This is one of those conversations that shows how business actually works; not how people think it works.
If you're building or managing a team, this one matters.
