About ResourceAbility
ResourceAbility, LLC was founded in 2005 by Kelly Berry to help meet the needs of small business owners in the Chippewa Valley. Pam Baughman joined the business in 2006. The combined skills of both owners provide a wide range of expertise not normally available to small business owners in the Chippewa Valley. Our goal at ResourceAbility is to help local entrepreneurs learn how to better understand their business and their customers so that they can take their business to the next level of success.
Time constraints, budget concerns and a lack of resources cause many important tasks in a small business to go undone. Developing a marketing strategy, analyzing customer or sales data, effectively tracking and evaluating financials, and other important strategic tasks get set aside due to the everyday demands of operating the business.
