Did you know? 1 small business opens every 4 minutes in the US!

May is National Small Business Month, and in this episode of G&G we’re celebrating the entrepreneurial spirit! Meet our guests: Jacquie Ferentinos, co-owner of the locally owned and operated Bagel Boutique, and Brenna Anderson, VP of Relationship Management for Members 1st Federal Credit Union. In part 3 of our Limited Edition Members 1st series, Jacquie and Brenna sit down with co-hosts Anne and Anne to tell the story of entrepreneurial success and a growing bagel empire—including an incredible financial partner. “We are your people,” says Brenna. “Believe in yourself, take the risk, and we will help you every step of the way.” Other key ingredients? Hard work, relationships, and passion for what you do. “We’re sharing stories one bagel at a time,” says Jacquie. Her advice for entrepreneurs: “Do it scared, do it messy, but do it.” Jacquie and Brenna, welcome to the G&G tribe!
