Every now and then you get the opportunity to work with a client who is one of your favorite people. is kind, strong, bold and authentic. She leads with a passion and ferocity that I admire and constantly strive for. She and her organization have faced unmeasurable challenges the last few years and it has been an absolute pleasure to support her, the KKG dedicated staff and volunteers as they navigate these challenges.
Often I get asked what is my favorite part of being a business owner and honestly it is the opportunity to work with individuals like Kari and organize Zion’s like KKG.

I recently had the opportunity to listen to Shawn Kanungo speak about the evolving landscape of the business world. His insights into the changing nature of work, how we can adapt to stay ahead, and the future of employment, especially in the context of AI, were not only enlightening but also incredibly motivating. Shawn's energetic presentation was packed with valuable information. For those interested in keeping up with his latest thoughts and projects, I highly recommend following him on Instagram () and exploring his insightful content at his website.

As we embrace the new year, it's the perfect time for your business to aim higher and dream bigger. Here are four powerful resolutions we recommend to transform your business this year:

1. Diversify Your Revenue Streams
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Explore new markets, add complementary services, or tap into different customer segments. Diversifying your revenue sources can lead to greater stability and open up new growth opportunities.

2. Launch a Mentoring Service
Sharing knowledge is a powerful tool. Consider starting a mentoring program within your industry or community. It's a rewarding way to give back and establish yourself and your business as leaders and influencers.

3. Start a Business Podcast
Let your voice be heard! Launching a podcast can position you as a thought leader, expand your network, and engage with your audience in a whole new way. Share your insights, industry news or conversations with other experts.

4. Apply for Certified Women-Owned Business Status
If you're a female entrepreneur, consider getting certified as a women-owned business. This can open doors to new opportunities, networks, resources and showcase your commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Embrace these resolutions and watch your business soar to new heights in 2024! What steps are you planning to take for your business this year? Let's make it a year of remarkable growth and success!
