In partnership with the Small Business Development Center (SBDC), Business Lexington’s Weekly Wire launches a new series called, “Biz Brain Teasers.”
Each weekly installment of this new series features a puzzle, a problematic scenario or an issue common to most businesses.
This brain teaser will remain open for your responses for a week. Then, our experts will weigh-in to provide the best possible answer and you can see if you got it right! The experts’ response will be published in the following Weekly Wire.
If you have suggestions for a Biz Brain Teaser or are an expert in your field and want to contribute responses, email Robbie Morgan at rmorgan@smileypete.com.
Xavier owns a construction company that contracted significantly in employee numbers during the economic downturn of 2008. Business has been picking up and he recently won a large 2-year contract that would put his revenue and employee numbers close to where they were before 2008. Xavier still has a lot of equipment and inventory that sits around unused and he is excited to be able to put it back in use and not have to invest in new equipment to get started on the job.
