Welcome Liz from Weber Business Services to the Business Superfans Podcast. How are you this morning, Liz?

Liz Weber
00:01:10.424 – 00:01:14.312
I’m good, Frederick. I’m really happy to be here with you and with your listeners.

Freddy D
00:01:14.456 – 00:01:21.512
Yeah, we’re excited to have you. So tell us the backstory of how Weber Business Services came about.

Liz Weber
00:01:21.616 – 00:04:54.340
Well, it’s a long story, but I’ll give you the shortened version in that I started my company 33 years ago, actually this year with the idea that I knew I always wanted to have my own company, but I didn’t know what and I didn’t know what product to sell.

I didn’t really have any idea of what that business would be until one day I was attending one of those Frederick, you probably remember, like Fred Pryor seminars or national seminar group type seminars. And I remember sitting in that seminar and I was looking around the room and I believe the topic was something like business communications.

I don’t exactly remember, but I remember sitting in the room and counting the people in the room thinking, $295, $295, $295. And at the time I was also an adjunct faculty member with George Washington University.

And as part of my job, I was a contractor with the State Department. I trained, I provided conferences, and I was a trainer in addition to being a program analyst. I knew I could teach, I knew I could train.

So the light bulb started going off that I could start a training company. So I did.
