Insight on Business 10 October 2013

Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is powered by our advertising agency, Insight Advertising, Marketing & Communications and deals with the business news and interviews in the Des Moines Metro. We're heard live M-F at 5PM on 1350-KRNT, Des Moines and right here on your time.  We strip out the news on the podcast and bring you the interviews with news-makers and business people. Our goal is to give voice to business and not just the major companies....but also the folks on Main Street.

Today on the News Hour we welcome Danny Homan president of Council 61 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees about a press release that suggests Iowa workers are at risk due to the fact of further cuts in inspection crews and that unemployed Iowans are struggling with a reduction in workers at Iowa Workforce Development.

Then we switch gears and visit with Hollie Askey from the Warren County Development Corporation about a new program designed to celebrate business expansion and economic development in Warren County.

After we round the bottom of the hour we welcome back Kiley Stenberg from Proper PopUp and find out how this new way of shopping is going.  Some good retail ideas.

We finish the news hour with a tip for business about embracing local, local, local and give some examples of how some major businesses have figured out that consumers want...local.
