Listen "Navigating the Inevitable Summer Slowdown "
Episode Synopsis
Not every season is for pushing. In this episode, I’m talking about why the slower pace of summer isn’t a sign that we’re falling behind—it’s actually a key part of growing our firms with intention. These quieter months give us rare breathing room to reassess, reset, and realign.I’m sharing how we treat summer at Little Fish Accounting like a business strategy retreat. We use this time to dig into what tax season taught us, refine our internal systems, and support our clients in doing the same. When we use slow periods intentionally, they become less about pausing and more about positioning our firms for what’s next.(00:00) - Introduction to Seasonal Slowdowns
