Want to make money, do something you love, AND make the world a better place? You're in the right place. Making Good is the podcast for small business owners who want to make a big impact. This podcast is about two things: building a strong small business, and using it as a tool for good. We cover topics like marketing, business philanthropy, finding community, doing purpose-driven work, mindset - and everything in between. If you have (or want) a small business and life that make a difference, this podcast is for you. I'm your host, Lauren Tilden, ex-corporate marketer turned maker and shop owner. I'm so glad you're here.

    Great Show for business who want to make a real impact!
    Making Good's approach to running an honest and transparent business is refreshing. She is open and tackles topics that small businesses (who actually care) will appreciate. I love that at the end of the episode she asks her guest how they are making good - a good reminder for us all.

    Lauren is a GEM! đź’Ž
    When I was in the midst of deciding if I should turn my passion side business into my full time job, I searched for small business podcasts and am so thankful that I found Making Good. It was exactly what I needed to hear. Each episode is filled with tips and insight, targeted towards small business owners that want to make money but also make a difference. Lauren has lived experience that is so valuable… and her positive yet real personality comes through in every episode. She pumped me up and made me feel like I could make my business a reality, and I have!

    My fave small business podcast
    Lauren has such a refreshingly honest and human way of approaching small business marketing. I’ve been listening for about a year and my business has benefitted from following a lot of her advice. She helps me find clarity and a sense of control over my marketing which REALLY helps my mindset. Love it! Thanks, Lauren!

    No longer an Island
    Hi Lauren, I’m thrilled to have found your podcast and other resources! I’ve been a business owner since 2017 when I was nursing my son to sleep and scrolling trying to find ways I could make money at home so that I could be the caretaker of my baby. I found Amazon, started selling used books, then groceries (hooray for faster sales!) and finally kept listening to enough podcasts and watching enough YouTube videos that I learned how to private label my own line of lactation massager for breastfeeding and milk pumping people. When I listen to your podcasts it’s like you are reading my mind. We have so much in common- procrastination, over researching, impostor syndrome, control issues, and I could go on and on. Thank you for providing so much value in your bite-sized actionable advice! Thank you for helping me feel less alone in business ownership. Sending you a ton of gratitude, Jenelle

    This marketing course was a great reminder of how important marketing is. Lauren was clear and thorough in explained the importance of marketing and the step you need to take to move your business forward. The best takeaway for me was finding my idea client. That’s on my list this week! Great show!
