Small Businesses Actually Have the Hiring Advantage.

Small businesses actually do have the hiring advantage.
That might sound counterintuitive — especially when you're stuck posting jobs, reviewing résumés, and still not finding someone who fits the role or sticks around.

But here’s the truth:
✅ You can move faster than big companies.
✅ You can adapt to people’s real lives — whether that’s flexibility in hours or cross-training into new areas
✅ And you can offer something big companies can’t: the chance for someone to grow into their role as they help grow your business
That kind of career path? It’s exciting. It’s personal. And it matters to the right candidates.
But most small businesses struggle to show that in their hiring process. They use job descriptions or hiring steps copied from corporate playbooks — but those don’t always attract the people who’d thrive in a small team.
That’s where I come in.
I help small business owners figure out:
Clarify the role and focus the search beyond just the job title
How to write job posts that attract the right people
How to run interviews that uncover real fit
All without a dedicated recruiting team.
If hiring has felt like a guessing game, reach out to learn more about I can help.
