Many businesses struggle to balance high-quality client service with flexible, family-friendly working conditions. As companies grow, it becomes even more challenging to foster a culture where employees can excel at work without sacrificing personal priorities.

Tracy focused on hiring smart, passionate women who sought meaningful work while maintaining balance in their personal lives. By openly communicating the company’s remote structure to clients and emphasizing authenticity in client relationships, Tracy ensured Creative Noggin provided top-tier service without compromising the well-being of her team. She highlights the importance of hiring the right people, those who thrive in remote environments, and how transparent communication and accountability can help maintain a high standard of work.
