Be small by design, mighty by impact.
Tools, research, and meetups to help you build a small, mighty business. Designed to be enough — not to chase growth blindly.
“99% of companies are small. Where's their playbook?” — Good question. That's what we're building at House of Small.
A space for practical frameworks for building businesses through strategic limitation, not growth-at-all-costs. Our framework — Economies of Small — shows you how to find your appropriate size, protect it, and leverage it to scale impact in ways that limitless, growth-obsessed companies can't.
Four advantages emerge when you choose an appropriate size.
Economies of SmallTangibility
The smaller the business, the closer the decision-maker is to the work. The foundation of good decisions.
Flexibility
Small businesses aren't locked in by heavy tech, standardisation and bureaucracy. They can turn when the world turns.
Accountability
When you're close to the consequences of your actions, it's harder to hide behind the system.
Resilience
Small businesses can take shocks that knock the big ones down.
