Hey local businesses, what are your biggest struggles?
Hey team it's Jack.
I want to understand what are your biggest obstacles when it comes to your particular business.
Perhaps if you are a tradie it may be finding consistent work and organising your time. If you are a cafe owner, it may be in making your food/drinks attractive, and implementing online booking while managing inventory. Or if you are a yoga instructor, your biggest challenge could be in crafting a welcoming environment and building a strong community.
If this speaks to you, I would love to hear your problems in the replies below. Cheers.
