Episode 19: From Trash To Wealth | An Interview with Bryan Feil of Neighborhood Industries

The Alanis Business Academy Podcast: Business Education for Everyone Else | Matthew Alanis

Part of being a successful entrepreneur is learning to identify opportunities. Whether it's a pain that we feel personally, or one that affects others, all successful businesses satisfy an unmet need or want. In today's episode I welcome Bryan Feil, Executive Director of Neighborhood Industries, a Fresno nonprofit committed to economic development. Listen in as Bryan and I sit down for a one-on-one interview in front of a live audience. We talk about the opportunity that Bryan saw for Neighborhood Industries, successes, and of course...setbacks.

What did you think of today's show? Starting this fall, we launched the Entrepreneur Speaker Series, where I invite entrepreneurs and other business professionals on campus to talk with our students about their experiences in entrepreneurship. If you're interested in getting the opportunity to listen in on these interviews please let me know either by emailing me at [e-mail] or Facebook and Twitter.

At the end of the show (43:14) I mention a new video guide that I'm launching on October 6. If you're interested in learning how to create your own instructional or tutorial videos, then you'll definitely want to check this out.
