“When I started Dancing Fish in 2010, it was a dream come true. But as the business grew, so did theheadaches—staff turnover, supply issues, and managing cash flow. It felt like every day was just putting out fires, and we barely had time to think about growth. At some point, I started to wonder if this was really worth it.
Partnering with smallfish was a game changer. They helped us sort out the issues that had been holding us back for years and gave us the tools to grow. We didn’t just survive—we grew the business by 2.5x. And along the way, we even picked up a Michelin award, something I never imagined would happen.
I just wish I had found smallfish earlier. They’ve not only helped the business succeed, but they’ve also given me back my passion and purpose.”
