Shark Tank Spotlight on Stephan Aarstol, founder of Tower Paddle Boards - Powered by FSI

Stephan Aarstol survived the Shark Tank, but many other people with amazing innovations simply can't get past the early hurdles of entrepreneurship. This week I wanted to share a few tips and resources for small business owners and the self-employed.

2. Not everyone can earn a spot on Shark Tank, but every startup needs an investment to get going. Check out this article about how to secure a business loan.
