Every successful business starts with a vision, but turning that vision into reality often means starting with what you have.

As first-generation entrepreneurs, the founders of Replenish had a dream of creating more than just a wellness business. They wanted to build a safe space where people could come to heal, connect, and feel supported.

In this clip, co-founder @chanelleredman shares how they turned that vision into reality. Despite limited resources in the beginning, they started with what they had, and were able to eventually expand into a larger space and hire staff.

Their story is a reminder that you don’t have to start big to build something meaningful.

Watch the full story of Replenish on startuptelevision.com, or PBS.org, and be sure to check your local PBS listings for airtimes.

Open enrollment is coming! Is your small business ready?

Between deadlines, employee questions, communication, and enrollment, there’s a lot to manage, especially when you’re running a growing business.

The right tools and resources can make all the difference.

As technology and AI continue to transform the workplace, one thing remains important: Technology should help people work smarter, not replace the people who make businesses successful.

And when it comes to open enrollment, being prepared allows your team to spend less time navigating the process and more time supporting employees.

@bamboohr is helping small businesses get ready with a FREE Open Enrollment Survival Kit, featuring helpful guides, templates, and checklists.

• Get organized.
• Stay ahead of deadlines.
• Focus on your people.

Sometimes, one moment can make you realize your business is reaching people in a whole new way.

Dave Pando shares one of his most memorable moments from the early days of @lvlupsports, hosting an event where football star @cardale7_ showed up to play.

It marked the business’s first celebrity appearance and gave Dave a moment worth sharing on social media, while proving something even bigger: paintball can bring together people from all walks of life.

Al is changing the way small businesses operate, but using it and using it confidently are two different things.

87% of small businesses surveyed use at least one Al tool, but only 20% say they’re highly confident using Al effectively.

@bluehost is helping entrepreneurs close that gap with ELEVATE: The Small Business Growth Summit on November 10, a free event exploring practical ways small business owners can use Al more effectively to support and grow their businesses.

Dave Pando of @lvlupsports shares one of his favorite business hacks: checking government and military auction sites for great deals.

For his paintball park, Dave looks for durable, unique items that players can hide behind. These are pieces that look cool, can take a beating, and often come at a great price.

Sometimes the smartest business move is knowing where to look.
