The Tidbit Takes the Road - Kitty Dougoud, Main Street America 📍Georgetown, KY‬

The Tidbit

You are tuning into a special series, The Tidbit Takes the Road. In October 2020 Kim Bryden, CEO of Cureate and Host of The Tidbit, decided to hit the road on a cross-country listening tour to learn more about how non-coastal small businesses and small towns had been faring in 2020. How were they adapting and innovating? What new ways were people thinking about the economy? On this episode of The Tidbit Takes the Road, we sit down with Kitty Dougoud, the Kentucky State Main Street Coordinator, who oversees more than 35 designated "Main Street" programs throughout the state of Kentucky. Colloquially known as "two degrees from Dougoud", Kitty is tapped into a vast network of entrepreneurs and business leaders that inform her programming and future visioning for how small business could and should grow throughout the State. We chat at a local restaurant on Georgetown KY's Main Street about collaboration over competition and fostering small business talent from within over local beers from Country Boy Brewing. Cheers!
