We then speak to serial entrepreneur Bill Nussey about his journey in tech and how he created multiple million-dollar businesses. Following that is a portion of the Atlanta Small Business Profile featuring Kim Normand Dobrin, owner of FreeTheMindCo, a professional development resource provider that wants to, as the name suggests, help free one’s mind.
