After eight years in an at-home office, J.C. Sweet & Co., a website design company, moved to larger quarters and increased its staff from two to eight.

“We outgrew the home office. Things got too busy,” said Jenny Crawford, founder of the company.

The company plans a formal ribbon-cutting on Oct. 18 at its new quarters at 1 Lake Hill Road in Ballston Lake.

Five people work  in the office and three more work off-site.

The company builds websites and helps to manage them. It also helps business owners come up with effective strategies to use social media to promote their businesses and trains business owners and their employees.

“We help people who are uncomfortable with technology, become comfortable,” Crawford said.

Training and education are a large part of J.C.Sweet’s business. Crawford, who trained to become an elementary school teacher,  enjoys the training and teaching role. She provides internet-related training at state Small Business Development Centers, real estate companies, the Financial Planners Association, Chamber of Commerce programs for new businesses and similar venues.
