The Most Wonderful—and Busy— Time of the Year
The holiday season is a golden opportunity for small businesses, but it can also be overwhelming. From managing increased demand to staying ahead of the competition, success during the holidays requires planning, flexibility, and a little extra support.

Challenges of the Holiday Season
Small business owners face unique hurdles during the holidays. Here are a few common challenges and how to address them:
- Inventory Management: Stocking up on popular items requires significant upfront investment. Running out of inventory during peak shopping days can mean lost sales.
- Seasonal Hiring: Increased foot traffic or order volume often means hiring temporary staff, which adds to payroll expenses.
- Marketing and Promotions: Standing out during the holiday season requires creative campaigns, which can be costly to execute.
- Cash Flow Strain: Higher expenses combined with delayed revenue from holiday sales can create a financial crunch.
