Steve's Pep Talks:

 

I am Steve Peplin, the Founder/CEO of Talan Products.

I’m told I am well-read, adventurous, gregarious, opinionated, handsome and humble; all deserved compliments I wholeheartedly agree with.

For the past few years, I have been writing a column for Smart Business Magazine. I call it “PepTalk”. Click here to access an archive of them presented in their entirety, for your reading pleasure.

I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. While my opinions and advice are likely priceless, these are my opinions and not necessarily the opinions of Talan Products. They are meant to amuse and beguile.
