Small Businesses & Nonprofits Need Help
Texas alone has 3.2 million small businesses. Of those, only 1 out of every 2 businesses lasts beyond 5 years and 56% believe finding talent is their biggest challenge. They also face more competition than ever for funding, customers, and attention.
The Job Market for Emerging Talent is Shrinking
38.4% of job postings labelled as entry-level require three years of experience. AI has become a low-quality, high quantity competitor for many young creatives who also have to act as negotiators, strategic consultants, and managers on top of generating quality content.
