Don’t let fear of change hold you back—discover how intentional decisions today can set your business up for success in 2025 and beyond.

I’ve seen it time and time again with small businesses…

If you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll keep getting the same results. It’s a familiar cycle: sticking with what’s comfortable, familiar, and seemingly “good enough,” but then wondering why growth feels stalled, or why it feels like you’re constantly treading water.

Trust me, as a lifelong Chicago Cubs fan—over 40 years of cheering, waiting, and hoping—I know what patience feels like. There were years when it seemed like change would never come, and yet, even the Cubs had to make tough, strategic decisions to finally reach their ultimate goal. That’s a lesson for all of us: patience is important, but real progress requires intentional change.

As business owners and leaders, we all face this challenge. We let fear of change, fear of investing resources, or fear of looking at things from a fresh perspective keep us stuck. It’s not uncommon to put off today’s decisions, telling ourselves that we’ll focus on them next week, and then, before we know it, next quarter becomes next year. It’s easy to delay strategic priorities when it feels safer to maintain the status quo, especially when running a business is already demanding and filled with unpredictable twists and turns.

At Farmboy, we understand this. We’re never short on creative ideas, but we know that having ideas isn’t enough. It takes strategic thinking, proactive planning, and the willingness to partner with businesses to guide them through meaningful transformation. We want to be more than just idea generators; we want to be partners who help you implement those ideas and lead your business forward. Our focus is to help you stay ahead of the curve, because 2025 will be here before you know it. And it’s far better to be ahead of the game, actively implementing change, rather than scrambling to pivot or put out fires when it’s too late.

So if you’re ready to move past the fear and make real progress, we’re here to help. Let’s talk about what changes can make a difference for your business, and let’s make sure you’re set up for success as the new year approaches.
