“Pivoting: a survival skill for entrepreneurs”

A three-part series with Steve Kobrin and Business Coach Frank Dew.

1. Know When to Pivot

Recognize the signs that something isn’t working—whether it’s declining sales, customer feedback, or market shifts. Staying attached to a fixed vision can lead to stagnation.

🧠 2. Pivot Strategically, Not Emotionally

Effective pivots are driven by data, customer insight, and business strengths—not gut reactions or trends. Small, thoughtful shifts can unlock big growth.

🔄 3. Build a Culture of Adaptability

Success isn’t static. Stay curious, stay flexible, and regularly reassess your approach. Agility is a competitive advantage, especially for small businesses.
