Getting creative doesn’t have to mean reinventing the wheel. It may just mean readjusting what you are already doing or pivoting your business. In times like today, we need to be flexible and creative. Using new strategies to pivot your business can take your company to the next level of success.

However you plan to pivot your business, planning is the key to success. Make sure your infrastructure is prepared and you’ve clearly communicated your new strategies and goals to employees and consumers. Hiring a virtual assistant (VA) or online business manager (OBM) can help support your infrastructure and re-branding efforts.

Shopping at or using the services of small, local businesses has many benefits. There are many reasons to support local businesses not only on Small Business Saturday, but every day of the year.

Some believe the word “outsource” has a negative cogitation. But, what it really boils down to is whether you have the time or money to complete a task. This is true in our personal and professional lives. We could all paint our houses, but a professional can probably do it better and more efficiently. Hiring an independent contractor to support your small business can help you run more efficiently.

No matter if you are a baker, landscaper, restaurant owner, or HVAC technician, you are more than likely working with a full plate. Your day-to-day operations, ordering supplies, paying bills, supervising employees, managing customers and selling your products and services can take up the majority of your time.

This is where a virtual assistant (VA) or online business manager (OBM) can help support your efforts.

If you do nothing else, cheer on a small business owner. It is challenging to own your own company. Entrepreneurs face multi-tasking various aspects of their business, self-doubt and financial stress. A simple encouraging word can mean as much as a sale to a small business owner.

Supporting small businesses allows for the local economy to thrive. Small business purchases not only support the business but the owner and their family too. Support your local, small businesses today!

I started Crew Business Solutions to help small businesses succeed. I have always found joy in being part of a team and being able to support others. My parents ran their own small business from our home for many years. I saw the struggles of entrepreneurship but also the rewards. Crew was started to reduce the mundane tasks that bog down business owners. Crew is here to work with small business owners to give them some of their time and life back.
