Running a small business in Oakville isn’t for the faint of heart — you're likely the CEO, marketer, customer service rep, and janitor all in one. But here's the good news: you're not alone.
One simple shift that helped me (and might help you too)? Tapping into local resources. The Halton Small Business Centre offers free workshops, mentoring, and tools designed to help small businesses grow — whether you're starting up or scaling up.
Also, don’t underestimate the power of local connection. Platforms like this - Oakville Spaces, local networking events, or even a casual coffee with another business owner can spark new ideas and collaborations.
Quick Tip: Take 30 minutes this week to work on your business instead of in it. Pick one area that’s been on the backburner — your website, customer experience, or even your pricing — and give it a little TLC. Small tweaks can lead to big wins.
Keep showing up. Keep learning. Oakville’s small biz community is stronger when we lean on each other.
