Hopefully the Small Business part is pretty clear. Put them together and you get an expert commentator on small business.
So then who is the Small Business Pundit?
You are. The small business owner who works tirelessly every day in the pursuit of your dream. I want to act as representative of your thoughts, feelings, and concerns, and hopefully get them in front of people who can do something about it.
In the past election, the only phrase used more often than maverick was “small business owner.” We are often spoken about as the way America will recover, where the new and exciting ideas come from, and where the majority of new jobs are created. That is a lot of responsibility to place on our shoulders. With all that riding on us, we should be getting some help.
I want to hear from you, and I want to help make your voice heard in the White House and on Capitol Hill. While this recession has put a spotlight on small business owners, we need to make our opinions known on a consistent basis.
We will turn this economy around, but we could do it faster and with less stress if our government makes it a little easier for us.
Help me make your voice heard – share your thoughts on the economy and anything else that is on your mind, and I will get it in front of the people who can make a difference. Be sure to include your location or zip code. The more information you share, the more valid to your representatives.
I am speaking up about my struggle as a small business owner, what are you doing?
