Strong leadership in the business world often calls for bold moves in tough times. For many of our clients, that time is now.
We have witnessed leaders shine a spotlight on important and necessary issues in recent weeks, using their positions of influence and their brands to help promote healthy conversations in moving our world forward.
At BizCom, we’ve been inspired by the way our clients have pivoted their businesses in response to the COVID-19 crisis. And we have made sure they continue to find ways to share their stories and messages as a way to inspire others.
Here is a sampling of stories they have shared in recent weeks.

And while the national conversation about women in franchising has often felt like an obligatory mention at times, those times certainly are changing for the better.
Today on Veterans Day, we celebrate the men and women who selflessly protect the freedoms we enjoy as Americans. With so many VetFran member brands on our client roster, this remains one of our favorite observations to honor with media coverage each year.
