Episode Details

It's official: Jim Carr is leaving MakingChips. He's stepping back to take more time to focus on Carr Machine & Tool. Jim has been an integral part of the success of MakingChips. So in this episode, I'll share six things I've learned from Jim that are impactful in both business and 

life. We'll sure miss our banter, but we'll keep MakingChips, because if we aren't MakingChips, we aren't making money. BAM!
