Business & Bagels: Plan 2027 Before It Plans You

Whether 2026 was great, rough, or just a blur, grab a bagel and get clear on what matters most for the year ahead. Business & Bagels is back! Every January, business owners promise themselves this year will be different. Then the phone rings, a client needs something, an employee calls off, and by March it's the same year all over again. Can you relate? You may have had a good 2026. Revenue might be fine. But if it took more out of you than it should have, this morning is for you. Plan 2027 Before It Plans You is a relaxed, practical 90 minutes for small business owners who are ready to lead their year instead of reacting to it. Here's what we'll cover together: • Why so many owners end up repeating the same year, and what's really keeping them stuck • An honest look back at 2026: what worked, what drained you, and what you kept putting off • How to get clear on the few priorities that will actually move your business forward in 2027 You'll leave seeing your business a little differently, and knowing where your focus belongs heading into the new year. We'll also share how Elevate works with business owners through our Foundations, Ascend and Pinnacle programs. That's where we roll up our sleeves together and turn those priorities into a real plan, and real progress. Bring a pen and your coffee order. We'll bring the bagels. When: Thursday, November 12, 8:00–9:30 AM Where: Skyview Lodge, Brunswick Cost: Free (registration required, seats are limited) Hosted by Jessica Chodaczek and Rob and Sandra Wentz, Elevate Business Advisors.
