There is a phrase you may have heard, ‘invest in things that no-one can take away from you’. This applies to all areas of life, but as a small business owner, the knowledge, skills and experiences you can have in life can grow your business as much as any investment in products, marketing, and other ways of growth. This is just one of the many reasons you should upskill as a small business owner!
Skills of all kinds are invaluable, and learning new things never goes amiss. The very practice of studying can be so beneficial.
We created a YouTube video recently on this very topic – scroll down to read a little more or watch it!

Reasons you should upskill as a small business owner
Having some basic knowledge across all aspects of business operations can go a long way to making your business flourish, and ultimately turn you into a more well-rounded manager when you do eventually hire staff and expand.
Pedddle founder Nicki recently created a YouTube video discussing this – click the link below to watch it.
“Learning as a small business owner is so important. I personally found it game-changing.
