Small Business Roundtable Discussion | Matt Marietti, John Vella, and Fiore Moletz

Episode Summary

In this special episode, I sit down with three local business owners to discuss a variety of current topics. Matt Marietti, owner of de Fer Coffee and Tea, Fiore Moletz, co-owner of Burgh’ers Brewing, and John Vella, owner of The John Vella Salon, are all back on the show. This is a first of what I expect will be many more “small business roundtable” discussions. They’re an opportunity to revisit with past guests and discuss what’s happening in the local economy, the small business community, and in their specific lives and businesses. So, please enjoy, and let me know about any thoughts you have regarding past guests who you’d like to see featured in these types of episodes.

Episode Notes

I’m excited to debut a new interview format that I plan to bring you periodically throughout the year. Many of you have reached out to me asking for updates on previous guests. There has also been tremendous interest in hearing from small business owners with respect to current events and topics. So, I decided to sit down with several of our very own podcast alumni to get their take on what’s happening out there.

In this first small business roundtable discussion, Matt Marietti, owner of de Fer Coffee and Tea, Fiore Moletz, co-owner of Burgh’ers Brewing, and John Vella, owner of The John Vella Salon, are back on the show. We talk about what’s going on in their businesses, what they’ve been working on, what their thoughts are on the latest issues facing their industries and the local economy, and much more. Please enjoy this dynamic conversation, and let me know who you’d like to hear from the next time that I do another small business roundtable episode.

If you have any questions or if you’d like to chat, you can reach me at my contact info below. The purpose of this podcast is to share ideas, inspire action, and build a stronger small business community here in Pittsburgh. So, please say hello, tell me what you think, and let me know how I’m doing. It means a ton!
