Advice Line with Jon Stein of Betterment

Plus, Jon’s take on why now is a good time to start a business — in spite of market uncertainty.   

Today’s callers: Dan from Washington considers new offerings beyond his core loose leaf yerba mate product. Then, Mike from New Hampshire wants to expand his woodworking business beyond his basement, without taking on debt. And Maggie from Georgia wonders how to respond to rising customer acquisition costs for her soccer-themed dog brand.

Thank you to the founders of Heretic Yerba, MTS Woodworking, and Floofball for being a part of our show.
