With all respect. I’m hoping not to insult anyone.

The reason I use the word little in the title. In the eyes of the government and others, they think a small business is one that employees 100 or less.There’s a big difference from a business with 100 employees verses 1 or 2.

As a small business person, Have you struggled with starting and running your small business? So many questions, so much to learn, where do you start?

Before the “Internet,” you struggled alone in silence. To new to know what to do. Too proud to ask or let anyone know we were in trouble.

You think you know what you’re doing, but?

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

Socrates

Yes, you know your profession, trade, skills, and experienced. What’s left for you to know?

Plenty, as you will soon find out. Your trade, skill, and experience are only one of the many skills and knowledge you will need before you make it a business. Turning your Skills into a business is a whole another business. If you don’t know what I mean.

If you don’t know yet, you won’t know until you dive in
