Not failing like so many big businesses out there. Another year staying afloat is a win. It’s not the best, but it’s better than losing money.

I’m proud of the work I’ve put out this year and my focus on getting products out fast. Can’t wait to see what I create in 2025!

Staying focused is everything. :muscle:

We do web design.

I got through most of the regulatory hurdles for my business, and I’m still in business! Now, just need to finish developing my product.

I launched a service business from scratch and hit a quarter million in revenue. Next year, I’m aiming for $750k.

Congrats! Can you share your insights or tips for others?

I started my small business after getting laid off from the outdoor cycling industry. It’s been tough, but I’m pushing through. I’m aiming to make it through to the end of January. Check back in 6 to 9 months!

After being made redundant, I found a new role at an agency in the field I want to grow in. It only took me 2 months, and I’m proud of my discipline and motivation. But I know I have other areas of my life to improve in 2025.

What areas are you focusing on for improvement?

I’m proud to have doubled my revenue from last year and started working with a new client. It’s not huge, but it’s a side business and I’m grateful for the progress.

Congrats, that’s great progress!

We launched our investment platform to allow people to invest in aquaculture and coastal communities. It’s been hectic, but I got it done, secured grants, and am working on a move back to the US. I’m excited to focus on branding, content, and our pilot project next year.

We’ve had steady, slow growth. We’re up about 20% year over year and have a solid pipeline for 2025.

Peace
