Freedom to Fail
On Freedom to Fail, Kyle Bringhurst interviews successful entrepreneurs and people about the unsuccessful times in their lives. This podcast was inspired by entrepreneurs who are not afraid to acknowledge that success only comes after overcoming fears and learning from our failures. Freedom to Fail is for those who have dreams of starting a business or reaching your goals but have been held back by their fears. It was created to give YOU an inside look into these failures and learn the skills they use to move forward in the face of uncertainty, so that YOU can do the same.

Episode 063 - Year One w/ Bennett Maxwell (Dirty Dough)
NOTE: This episode was recorded in May 2022 before the #utahcookiewars began. We stand behind Dirty Dough and Crave and the right to an open and competitive market. Cookies aren't meant to be divisive, they're meant to bring people together. Hopefully, we can get back to that as soon as possible and move away from silencing any newcomers.
And now back to the episode summary:
This week's Freedom to Fail episode is the second part of my interview with Bennett Maxwell. In this Year One segment we discuss what Bennett would do to get his business up and running if he were to start his cookie business from scratch again. Some of the things that he discusses the importance of are:
- Knowing your numbers (how to find out what your COGS should be)
- Creating a board of advisors (where to find them and who to look for)
There are plenty of other great tips for all you future entrepreneurs, so if you're looking to start a business then this the episode for you!
