How are you handling the COVID-19 situation?
One of our cleaning clients is talking about shutting down while another is thriving and busier than ever.
What does this tell me? There is opportunity in times of change and uncertainty.
I will fully admit that I had some thoughts of fear and doubt over the past few days.
What is going to happen to my business during this “crises”?
This morning I remembered and article I read in Fast Company magazine in 2016 where they were talking about the MOST IMPORTANT SKILL for any business owners is:
