We support and promote small business. Our world has been changing at a rapid pace, and our belief is that this environment has created great opportunities for motivated individuals to pursue their dream of running a successful and fulfilling small business.
Small business is important to our economy because they provide opportunities for entrepreneurs and create meaningful jobs with greater job satisfaction than positions with larger, traditional companies. They promote local economies and relationships. Increasingly, consumers are seeking personalized experiences instead of cookie cutter solutions designed for the masses across chain stores or large corporations.
This is not to say that small business is slow or traditional. On the contrary. Small business breeds innovation. According to the SBA, small companies develop more patents per employee than do larger companies. Small business owners are particularly adept at finding new ways of doing old things. Why are small businesses so innovative? For one thing, they tend to offer environments that appeal to individuals with the talent to invent new products or improve the way things are done. Fast decision making is encouraged, research programs tend to be focused, and compensation structures typically reward top performers. According to one SBA study, the supportive environments of small firms are roughly thirteen times more innovative per employee than the less innovation-friendly environments in which large firms traditionally operate.
Our goal is to support ambitious individuals who want to create strong businesses to provide great support for their customers through personalized experiences and novel solutions.
