Thrive Turns 7!

When I left my sales job at KOMO 4 in 2008, I think most people thought I was crazy. On the dawn of the Great Recession, many thought it was foolish to leave a good, secure job to venture out on my own to start a new business. With a lot of hard work, a little bit of luck and many prayers Thrive ended up being the best decision I made professionally (and personally ultimately). Yesterday, Thrive turned 7! *Happy Carlton Dance*
According to SBA, the survival rate of small businesses is “About half of all new establishments survive five years or more and about one-third survive 10 years or more.”
So today I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the cheerleaders in my network who stood by me, cheering me on as I grew my agency. My business has grown through word of mouth from clients and referrals from those in my circle. I appreciate those referrals more than you know. To my amazing clients, mentors and friends, thank you for making my dream a reality and for allowing my entrepreneurial spirit to THRIVE. I love what I do. I am grateful, humbled and blessed to have all of you in my life. With heartfelt gratitude, Robin
