Tell me a little bit about yourself:: Tina Greer is a native of Illinois, military spouse of retired Army Sergeant First Class, and been afforded the opportunity to live abroad in Japan and across the United States. She has always aspired to help others in the business arena, but at the time she did not know what area she wanted to focus on. Through helping many colleagues, friends, and clients with advice on how to grow their respective businesses, she decided to specialize in business coaching specifically women entrepreneurs from start-up to 5 years in business.
Coupled with her educational background, Master of Public Administration (MPA) specializing in finance, and her expertise of working in corporate America for over 20 plus years with the last 10 years, specializing in business strategy and pricing for a multi-million dollar company, she is able to assist aspiring entrepreneurs and small business owners in creating sustainable robust businesses. She does this by providing business coaching and consulting services; teaching the fundamentals of business, and positioning business owners for profits from the initial goal setting to closing the deal. She also provides customized coaching programs strategizing various ways to create additional streams of income. One of the popular coaching programs is the Writer’s Workshop where we successfully help you write and publish your first book.
Greer Business Solutions coaching programs are available in person and on-line. We also provide group coaching as well as 1-1 coaching. Tina Greer is also a professional speaker focusing on topics such as leadership, networking with impact, sisterhood, and inspirational messages.

What are the 2 biggest challenges you have with entrepreneurship: 1) Having others understand the value of my programs and be willing to invest in themselves to take their business to the next level. 2) Finding my ideal client and where they hang out.
We are at the local coffee shop down the street and I’m about to leave. Tell me 3 things you want me to walk away with from our meeting.: 1) I hope you know more about me as a person and the services I provide. 2) I hope you are able to understand what I bring to the table and thinking how we can work together or have someone in mind they may need my services. 3) That you want to connect again any work toward a lasting business relationship.

Background on the podcast
This podcast came out of a need to connect fellow entrepreneurs and show them they are not alone in feeling the way they do. Entrepreneurship is a beautiful thing but it’s not always easy and most don’t talk openly about the not so attractive side of being an entrepreneur.
The Yes to Entrepreneurship is a podcast for anyone who is thinking about starting their own business or is already running one. This show features entrepreneurs who meet and talk about business, life, and how it all plays out.
Imagine sitting at a coffee shop and overhearing the people next to you talk about entrepreneurship – that’s exactly what this show is about. Swing by and drop in on our conversations – you’re bound to pick up a thing or two!
