Fact Checking

We are delving into the importance of fact-checking in our businesses. We decided to fact-check some past podcast claims live, with our Producer Lauren. From stats on women-owned businesses to business failure rates and social media trends, we realized how crucial accuracy and nuance are. Living in a world where anyone can say anything and claim it’s true, especially if they have a microphone or say it with confidence, makes it vital to be as honest, transparent, and helpful as possible. It's easier to consume information than to assume, so we should all be skeptical about what we take in. When it comes to decisions like buying a G-Wagon for the write-off, we question if it's really right for our businesses.
