2023 is fast approaching and economic issues are at the forefront. Today’s program features small business owners and the challenges they may be meeting in the new year. Park National Bank has one hundred years in banking with over 96 locations across Ohio, Northern Kentucky, and the Carolinas.

We welcome Peggy Tidwell, who is the Vice President of Columbus Commercial Lending for Park National Bank.

When you have a customer attempting to create a business what are your “top tips” to get them on the right track?

What resources and programs have been developed by Park National for your business customers?

The owner wants to grow. What steps should they be taking?

What about resources in the community that are available to business owners?

Peggy also focuses on technology – both the tech utilized by Park National to provide services to customers, as well as the security issues which business owners must face in their daily work.

She also offers her thoughts on how (or if) age plays a role in business ownership. Just like succession, an owner needs to deal with their age, and the age of employees, in future planning.

Also, check out these two episodes. We reference debts and wills in this episode, and these would be great to go back to and check out.

We would love to hear from you.
