As promised, we're revisiting the topic "Doing Business With Family" addressed in Episode 66 of our Don't Call It Small...Business podcast. In Episode 76, we're looking at the pros and cons of hiring and working for family. In Episode 66 we looked at the customer-seller perspective. In Episode 76 we're looking at hiring a family member to work for you or choosing your family member's business as a place of employment over others. Should you hire your family member? Should you work for a family member? We examine if, when, why, and how to hire children to work in the family business. We share examples such as Jamie Trowbridge, the CEO of Yankee Publishing in Dublin, NH, a family-owned business launched by his grandfather in 1935, and recently realigned as an employee-owned business in 2019. We explore pieces of Jamie and his family's story, and tie-in the pros and cons that we all must consider. There are some amazing benefits to being part of a family business, but you have to create the infrastructure and culture that properly supports and respects the family and the business. This episode outlines some of the necessities and helps address the issues and concerns of many of the stakeholders impacted by this work arrangement.

And then join us in celebrating these amazing dreamers who are determined to make their heart's desire a reality.
