Hey r/Entrepreneur community!
As 2025 wraps up and we gear up for 2026, it's the perfect time for reflection. This year has been a rollercoaster for many of us, with new tech (hello, Advance AI!), shifting markets, and evolving consumer behaviors.
I'm curious to hear from all you, whether you're a seasoned founder, a solopreneur, or just starting your journey:
What is the single most valuable business lesson you learned in 2025?
Was it a pivot that saved your business?
A marketing strategy that unexpectedly exploded?
A hard lesson in team management or client relations?
Something about personal resilience in the face of setbacks?
A new approach to leveraging AI/automation that truly worked?
Share your insights, war stories, or even that "aha!" moment that changed everything for you this year. Let's help each other grow stronger for 2026!
Looking forward to reading your wisdom!

We stopped forcing narratives and started letting things play out naturally
Paid ads are the number 1 ranking seo factor. I use to believe what i read about quality content, i never bought ads and yet crappy companies with crappy websites that bought ads google promoted.
I started buying ads and to the top of search i go. What a magia style shakedown. Google states real companies advertise and google trusts companies that advertise hence whoever buys the most ads gets first position in serps.
I hate ads but i will pay for the extortion because makes my company grow 2025
