For many small business owners, the week between Christmas and New Year’s can feel like a pause button. Orders slow down, inboxes get quieter, and the calendar finally opens up a bit. This “break” week is actually one of the best times to invest in your learning, revisit your strategy, and set the tone for the new year.
When the day-to-day rush eases, you get space to think clearly about your business. You can reflect on what worked this year, what needs to change, and where you want to grow next. A few focused hours of learning now can save weeks of trial and error later.
At CHRISTIAN JORDAN, the belief is that continuous learning is one of the strongest competitive advantages a small business owner can build. Whether you are refining your marketing, improving your customer experience, or tightening your operations, there is always another skill, strategy, or insight that can move you forward.
Thanks to the Verizon Small Business Digital Ready program, you do not have to start from scratch. There are recorded events and trainings that you can watch on your own time, covering topics like storytelling, digital strategy, presentations, and building community around your brand. These sessions are designed with small business owners in mind, so you can apply what you learn right away.
Use this week to:
- Rewatch or catch up on recorded workshops you missed during the year.
- Take notes on one or two key changes you will implement in January.
- Share insights with your team or accountability partners so you stay on track.
Even when the world slows down, your growth does not have to. Investing in your learning now is how you enter the new year with clarity, confidence, and a stronger foundation for your business.
If you are ready to use this “break” week to build momentum, you are just a few clicks away.
