Whether you’re ready or not, fall is right around the corner! It may not feel like it today, but that doesn’t change the inevitable. Other than cooler temps and football, what really happens when fall comes?

Maybe you’ve felt it…the magical shift that comes with the changing of the season. It usually happens right after Labor Day. And since Labor Day is just over a week away, it’s time to get ready. As small business owners it’s crucial to prepare for the shift in how customers spend their time and money.

So what do you need to do to be ready? Do customers really act differently as they come out of summer mode? Pat is sharing 3 ways to prepare your business for fall.

Also on this episode:

• Emergency Preparedness – Do you like scary stories? Here’s one…Apparently there’s a new Covid variant that is being watched by the experts. Oh boy! We’ve heard it before and usually nothing remarkable comes from it, but we worry anyway. But rather than overreact, let’s learn a few things about being prepared just on the chance that we reach pandemic status again.
• Adversity – What do you do when something bad happens within your small business? Kiley Peters, founder and strategist with Rayne IX, is back to talk to us all about overcoming adversity in business.
• Celebration – Candace Sanchez, author and podcast host, is celebrating 2 years with her podcast, “Unspoken: Conversations with Candace,” and her birthday! Most podcasts don’t make it that long. In fact, it’s almost impossible. Candace is sharing why she thinks she was able to keep it going, and she’s not finished yet!
