ABA on Tap is always ready to share a pour with 3 Pie Squared and the illustrious Stephen and April Smith. In this case, we did a podswap!

Start this tasty podcast pour on 3 Pie Squared and the ABA Business Leaders podcast. Then continue with a second serving here on ABA on Tap. The combined crew of brew masters create a wonderfully easy and refreshing libation, allowing you to sit, sip, and ponder 'why.' What was the original vision for your ABA business? Is this holding true to life or just on paper? When did it go of course, if in fact it has deviated from the initial vision? And more importantly, how do you get it all back to ethical practice of ABA that also yields successful business practice and profits.
