Small businesses have been underestimated for decades. That turns out to be their greatest advantage. Underestimated is the small business podcast for entrepreneurs, owners, and marketers ready to win without pretending to be bigger. Hosted by ‘The Buyer Insider’ Shawna Suckow, the show explores practical small business marketing strategies, customer behavior, sales tactics, and growth ideas that actually work—leaning into what big brands can't: trust, transparency, speed, and human connection. Through sharp insights and candid conversations with experts, Underestimated breaks down small business marketing, customer retention, leadership, and operations—without big budgets, bloated teams, or corporate nonsense. Because small businesses don't need to act big to win. They just need to use what big companies can't. RSSVERIFY
