SHOW NOTES:
2020 was the year of pivoting for small business owners. It really turned out to be a buzz word (and a necessity) for our creative industry as life as we knew it shut down completely. Pivoting is scary because it means taking a chance, but it isn’t always a bad thing, despite what it might feel like. Today on Talking Small Business, we’re sharing all about what we’ve done over the last year especially, how we’ve made pivots in our business and a little more insight as to why you might want or need to pivot your business. Both of us have pivoted a few different times in our business for different reasons and we want you to know it is not a bad thing! In fact, it can turn out to be one of the best things you can do for your business. So, settle in and let’s talk about that scene from FRIENDS… we mean, why pivoting in your business can turn out to be a good thing!
