About The Unscheduled CEO

WARNING: This is an extremely serious and useful business podcast with many useful takeaways and interviews. This podcast is like getting an occasional voice-note from an entrepreneur who's running a multi-million dollar (profit) business. It's raw, completely unedited but most importantly: actionable! Honestly, this should be called "Diary of a CEO", but that's... like.... taken already I think. The Unscheduled CEO, hosted by Jonathan Courtney is counterintuitive advice on running a Small Business by someone who's been running one for over 13 years. Jonathan Courtney is the CEO of AJ&Smart.com and Workshopper.com Got a question you want to be read out on air?
