Small Businesses to the Rescue

Monday, on the Small Blog, we discussed why you shouldn’t count out the Little Guy in the fight for big business.  Scrappy and resourceful, strategic and shrewd, small boutique firms are managing to do something that many of our nation’s most venerable companies haven’t: thrive.  In this time of economic crisis, we hear endlessly about the importance of saving America’s corporate giants (and for good reason, of course) but, we believe that small businesses will be the real key to turning around our lagging economy.

Don’t Knock the Little Guy

Over the past century, in business and in life, BIG has confidently held its place as the be-all, end all of most people’s dreams.  As individuals we strive to be the big man on campus, for the big and shiny SUV, the big house on the block, and even the big diamond ring.  In business we’ve also made BIG our goal. We go for the big accounts, we expand, and we tackle the globe. After all, no matter what the context, “bigger is better”, right? But recent times have shown us that maybe all this talk about BIG has been, well, a little overblown.  From prominent economists, to business journalists, and budding entrepreneurs, one counter-intuitive idea is making waves: SMALL is the new big.
