Take your small business to the next level!

If you own a small business, Google Workspace offers new ways of connecting, creating, and collaborating. Throughout the pandemic, we’ve learned that business email, video conferencing, cloud storage, and file sharing are essential tools every corporation needs to succeed in the digital workplace.

According to Forbes, “by the end of 2008, the first full year of the Great Recession, new business applications had fallen by nearly 230,000” in the United States. But, by the end of 2020, applications had risen over 200,000. 

Quoting Marie Rosecrans, senior vice president of small business at Salesforce, “what’s unique now is that these new businesses are starting with a digital-first mindset. This generation of small businesses will already have technology as a built-in contingency plan to quickly adapt to whatever crisis or challenge comes their way in the future.
