## Resource

As a business grows, the risks change. What works when you are selling small amounts to many customers may not work when your operation begins moving larger volumes and dealing with much bigger invoices. In this episode, John Haskell sits down with returning guest Tyler Dawley to talk about how growth in Tyler’s pasture-raised chicken business has introduced new financial risks. Tyler shares lessons he is learning in real time about protecting a business as it scales, including the emotional challenge of enforcing payment terms and why larger transactions require more formal agreements and processes. The conversation highlights an important point for any livestock or agricultural business: bigger operations require a different level of structure, risk management, and discipline.
