OUR NEW HOME, RENO PUBLIC MARKET, IS A FOOD HALL. PLEASE ARRIVE BY 11:30 TO CHECK IN, RECEIVE YOUR FOOD VOUCHER, SELECT YOUR FOOD, AND BE UPSTAIRS ON THE MEZZANINE BY NOON.

There are always signs of when it is time to pivot your business and decide your company's future. From the loss of passion and failing metrics in ROI to market conditions, several indicators may help you recognize it is time to pivot your business for success.

A clear sign is when you do not see the results you have hypothesized in your previous plan. If things are not working, you should not give up! Instead, change direction, devise a new course of action, and be determined to reach your goals. You can plan for future pivots before getting in too deep and before you ever think of quitting. I plan to share 5 steps to guide you while pivoting your business.

  • Know the possibilities are endless, that there may be more in store for you

  • Review the relatedness with existing products and customers

  • Keep your backup and growth options open

  • Scale the new

  • Pivot wisely
