In this episode, Tillery Timmons-Sims interviews Taylor McAlpine, a facilitator with Leading EDG and the owner of Local LBK. As a proud Lubbock native and Texas Tech grad, Taylor's interest in business and marketing has created multiple avenues to support his community. 
Having evolved through a few iterations, Local LBK helps connect people to businesses and activities within their own community. Taylor and his team focus on telling the stories of Lubbock through media content crafted for social media and other publications. 
At Leading EDG, Taylor works as a facilitator, which gives him the opportunity to consult with businesses in the rural communities outside of Lubbock. Leading EDG helps small businesses develop plans and set goals that will help accelerate the growth of their business.
