Small business can be beautiful

I am one of the Sage business experts, and they have produced a fantastic infographic on small business growth in the UK.

From Sage

I applaud the many women who starting or already running micro-businessses, often with little resources to get them started.

I often hear women downplay their endeavours, particularly when they compare themselves to the big guns they feel that they are not making a significant contribution.

This infographic however shows that the startling figure that 99.9% of all UK enterprises are SME’s and 3 in 4 businesses have just 1 employee.

So if you are plugging away at your small business, remember you are not alone

Think about:

• Collaborating on joint ventures
• Promoting complimentary services
• Or just finding ways to help your fellow micro-businesses

Together you can be powerful!!

…and maybe think about creating a Jelly to ease the isolation you might be experiencing
