Most Business Don’t ‘Plan to Fail’ They Just ‘Fail To Plan’

According to the current available statistics and data from the 2008 SBA Office and U.S. Chamber of Commerce, small business represents:

·         99.7% (over 29.6 million) of all employer firms

·         44% of total U.S. private payroll. 

·         52% are home based.

·         Generated over 64% of net new jobs over the past 15 years

According to the GA Dept. of Economic Development, in the state of GA:

·         Ranks #1 in the US for Entrepreneurship

·         97.5% were small businesses

·         95% employ fewer than 50

·         87% employ 5 or under

Yet, seven out of ten new employer firms last at least two years, and about HALF SURVIVE FIVE YEARS.  They didn’t plan to fail.  They just didn’t have the resources afforded to big businesses, such as legal, human resource, tax, accounting, collections, purchasing, information technology, advertising, and marketing departments.  They needed it but couldn’t afford it - UNTIL NOW.  We have solutions, starting at literally a few dollars a day.
