Supporting creative communities and entrepreneurs since 2012.

​Mulberry Terrace started when Anna responded to a neighbourhood facebook post looking for support with administrative tasks and quickly grew to encompass full-spectrum management strategies and guidance. From the early days based out of Toronto’s Workaround, through the pandemic, and into the future, Anna has been helping small businesses grow and adapt as the world changes around them.

Now working out of Scarborough, Anna’s client base covers the country and has included digital marketing agencies, holistic health practitioners, restaurants, independent retailers, authors, musicians, artists, and more.

Hiring & Employee Training

---

Hiring your first employee is a daunting task. What qualifications do you need? How much should you pay them? Hourly or salary? What’s the best place to post a job, and how do you handle the applications? How can you make sure your interview process is equitable?
From strategy and job boards, training and onboarding right through to timekeeping and payroll, we can guide and support you through your first, fifth, or twentieth hire.

Processes & Documentation

When you work on your own, it’s easy to take the path of least resistance and use the tools you already know to make things work. As your business grows, though, it’s time to organize your workflows and make sure “the way it works” actually works when other people are involved. After an extensive discovery process to get to know your business and the tools you feel most comfortable using, we’ll get you set up with the right tools as well as contracts, manuals, tutorials, and documentation so your business can grow smoothly no matter how many people you need on board.
*All possible efforts will be made to abide by provincial and federal legislation; however, to ensure full compliance, all legal documentation should be reviewed & vetted by your legal advisor. d use the tools you already know to make things work.
