This week on The Localist, Carrie is back to discuss one of 2020’s most common business strategies: the pivot. No one was spared from having to pivot, whether it was a small business, side hustler, or freelancer, and Carrie gives a few tips for how to reevaluate in 2021. Carrie dives into revisiting your business model with The Localist as an example for tailoring your model to fit a change in context, giving a few resources for updating (or creating!) a marketing plan, creating a minimum viable product, and letting go of perfectionism. Carrie wraps up with the importance of figuring out what brings you joy, how to decrease stress, and using that knowledge to determine the direction to take with your business.
